Erythroferrone is produced by erythroblasts (immature RBCs) in response to erythropoietin (EPO) and it (Erythroferrone) acts directly on the liver to suppress hepcidin via the BMP6 pathway [Source]. Lower hepcidin means iron tends to flow out of cells and into hemoglobin. Here's that erythroferrone-hepcidin relationship explained [Source]
