Trojan effort over the last four years by Elizabeth Perez who sadly moved onto pursue a Masters to achieve her long term goal of going to Medical School. Well done Elizabeth; we will miss you. KEY POINTS Cigarette Smoke reduces hepcidin levels in the lung, plasma, and urine of mice. Cigarette smoke inhibits hepcidin production by murine AMs. AMs from smokers and individuals with COPD have higher ferroportin.
