Effect of hepcidin treatment on serum iron and zinc levels in the mouse. Iron and zinc levels were measured in sera obtained from blood drawn 3–4 h after administration of hepcidin or vehicle only (Control). A: serum iron (Fe), normalized by the mean control serum iron in each of four trials. Mean serum iron in control mice was 32.4 μM (SD 11.7 μM, n = 16). Hepcidin treatment (n = 16) differed from control (P < 0.001). B: serum zinc (Zn) did not differ between control (n = 14) and hepcidin treatment (n = 15) (P = 0.34).
