Abstract
⺠Iron regulatory peptide hepcidin increases during strenuous exercise and recovery. ⺠Hepcidin may be involved in training-induced iron deficiency. ⺠We studied the role of plasma Il-6 in liver hepcidin mRNA control in running rats. ⺠Pharmacologically blunting plasma Il-6 resulted in smaller increase in hepcidin. ⺠Il-6 participates in hepcidin gene activation in response to exercise.
