Hepcidin deficiency causes bone loss through interfering with the canonical Wnt/β-catenin pathway via Forkhead box O3a

Objective: Hepcidin deficiency is known to cause body iron accumulation and bone microarchitecture defects, but the exact underlying mechanisms of hepcidin deficiency-induced bone loss remain unclear. Our objective was to understand the molecular mechanism of hepcidin deficiency-induced bone loss. M...
