Abstract: Aspects of the application provide anti-hemojuvelin antibodies and methods of using the same in treating anemias of chronic disease, iron-restricted anemias, and/or conditions associated with anemia.

Abstract: Aspects of the application provide anti-hemojuvelin antibodies and methods of using the same in treating myelofibrosis and/or conditions associated with myelofibrosis.

Abstract: Aspects of the application provide hepcidin antagonists and methods of using the same in treating anemias of chronic disease, iron-restricted anemias, and/or conditions associated with anemia. Accordingly, aspects of the present disclosure relate to treating a subject with high hepcidin levels (e.g., ACD) by inhibiting the BMP signaling pathway (e.g., hemojuvelin-induced BMP signaling pathway) and/or the inflammatory response (e.g., IL-6 mediated inflammatory pathway).

Abstract: Aspects of the application provide hepcidin antagonists and methods of using the same in treating myelofibrosis and/or conditions associated with myelofibrosis. In certain embodiments, methods are provided for treating myelofibrosis, which is generally characterized as a myeloproliferative disease associated with chronic inflammation and progressive marrow fibrosis. Anemia is a major clinical problem in myelofibrosis and is associated with negative outcomes. Such anemia is generally caused by, or associated with, bone marrow failure, splenomegaly and/or functional iron deficiency, which may contribute to inflammation.
