Overview

Caroline A. Enns is affiliated with Oregon Health & Science University in the United States. Their research primarily spans the field of Medicine with specific focus on Hematology, Genetics, Nutrition and Dietetics, and Physiology. Their body of work concentrates on key topics such as Hemoglobinopathies and Related Disorders, Iron Metabolism and Disorders, Trace Elements in Health, Erythrocyte Function and Pathophysiology, and Erythropoietin and Anemia Treatment.

Enns has contributed to multiple publications, with a notable presence in the journals Blood and Journal of Biological Chemistry. The distribution of their publications shows a balance between these two prominent venues in their field.

  • The ectodomain of matriptase-2 plays an important nonproteolytic role in suppressing hepcidin expression in mice (2020, Blood)
  • Hepatocyte neogenin is required for hemojuvelin-mediated hepcidin expression and iron homeostasis in mice (2021, Blood)
  • Extrahepatic deficiency of transferrin receptor 2 is associated with increased erythropoiesis independent of iron overload (2020, Journal of Biological Chemistry)
  • Matriptase-2 regulates iron homeostasis primarily by setting the basal levels of hepatic hepcidin expression through a nonproteolytic mechanism (2023, Journal of Biological Chemistry)
  • Hepcidin expression is associated with increased γ-secretase-mediated cleavage of neogenin in the liver (2024, Journal of Biological Chemistry)

Their collaborative network includes frequent coauthors such as An-Sheng Zhang, Shall Jue, Richard Zhang, Aaron Wortham, and Devorah C. Goldman. This indicates an active involvement in multidisciplinary teams focused on related medical and biochemical research topics.

Within their field of study, Enns' work has engaged deeply with hematological and genetic mechanisms, particularly those influencing iron regulation and erythropoiesis. This is aligned with their interest in tracing the pathways of hepcidin expression and the physiological handling of iron in mammalian systems.
