Mutations in hemojuvelin disrupt its ability to stimulate expression of the iron regulatory peptide hepcidin and result in the severe iron loading disorder juvenile hemochromatosis. A new


study shows that hemojuvelin acts through the multifunctional bone morphogenetic protein pathway to modulate hepcidin levels, providing new insights into communication within a key


physiological pathway. Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a preview of subscription content, access via your institution ACCESS OPTIONS Access through your institution
