Increased hepcidin levels in preeclampsia: a protective mechanism against iron overload mediated oxidative stress?

Nila Shaji Geetha et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate whether hepcidin is induced as a protective mechanism in preeclampsia patients in order to combat the environment of iron overload, oxidative stress, and endothelial dysfunction. The results showed that levels of serum iron, ferritin, transferrin saturation, hepcidin, and MDA/FRAP ratio were elevated significantly in preeclampsia patients compared to controls, while serum transferrin levels were significantly decreased in them.

Association of Serum Hepcidin With Preeclampsia: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Arkapal Bandyopadhyay et al.

Summary: This systematic review and meta-analysis compared the levels of serum hepcidin in women with and without pre-eclampsia. The results showed significantly higher levels of hepcidin in women with pre-eclampsia. Further research can be conducted to assess the levels of various iron parameters during different trimesters of pregnancy and their association with pre-eclampsia.
