We determined the parameters of iron homeostasis: serum iron, total iron binding capacity (TIBC), ferritin and soluble transferrin receptor (sTfR), the parameters of inflammatory activity: C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and prohepcidin, and the parameters of autoimmune disorders: rheumatoid factor (RF), anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (antiCCP) antibodies, and DAS 28.<\/jats:p>\n<jats:p><jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold> The levels of sTfR, CRP, IL-6 and prohepcidin were significantly higher in RA patients than those in the controls and the level of serum iron was significantly lower in RA than that in the control group. Unlike the controls, in RA, there was a significant positive correlation of sTfR with the parameters of inflammatory activity (IL-6, prohepcidin, ESR) and with the parameters of autoimmune disorders (DAS 28, RF, antiCCP). A negative correlation of serum iron with sTfR was found only in RA patients. Prohepcidin positively correlated with the parameters of inflammation (CRP, ESR) and with the parameters for evaluation of autoimmune disorders (DAS 28 and RF) in the RA group.<\/jats:p>\n<jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusion:<\/jats:bold> Our study shows that the simultaneous determination of the two parameters sTfR and prohepcidin is most informative in evaluating the changes in iron homeostasis in RA. The increase of both parameters provides information for tissue iron deficiency (assessed by the level of sTfR), caused by the inflammation when prohepcidin is expressed.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1515\/folmed-2016-0040","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,1,9]],"date-time":"2017-01-09T10:01:51Z","timestamp":1483956111000},"page":"257-263","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Pathobiochemical Mechanisms Relating Iron Homeostasis to Parameters of Inflammatory Activity and Autoimmune Disorders in Rheumatoid Arthritis"],"prefix":"10.1515","volume":"58","author":[{"given":"Katya I.","family":"Stefanova","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ginka T.","family":"Delcheva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ana I.","family":"Maneva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Anastas Z.","family":"Batalov","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mariela G.","family":"Geneva-Popova","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rositza V.","family":"Karalilova","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kiril K.","family":"Simitchiev","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"374","reference":[{"key":"ref111","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"155","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1365-2257.2003.00509.x","article-title":"Single value of serum transferrin receptor is not diagnostic for the absence of iron stores in anaemic patients with rheumatoid arthritis","volume":"25","author":"Siebert","year":"2003","journal-title":"Clin Lab Haematol"},{"key":"ref81","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"864","DOI":"10.1007\/s00393-011-0925-0","article-title":"Anemia in patients with rheumatoid arthritis","volume":"71","author":"Wahle","year":"2012","journal-title":"Z Rheumatol"},{"key":"ref291","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"153","DOI":"10.1586\/ehm.12.2","article-title":"Is it time for hepcidin to join the diagnostic toolkit for iron deficiency","volume":"5","author":"Pasricha","year":"2012","journal-title":"Expert Rev Hematol"},{"key":"ref211","first-page":"329","article-title":"Soluble transferrin receptor for the evaluation of erythropoiesis and iron status","volume":"22","author":"Beguin","year":"2003","journal-title":"Clin Chim Acta"},{"key":"ref41","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"171","DOI":"10.1016\/j.beha.2004.08.020","article-title":"Hepcidin -
