چکیده

reflects increased erythropoietic activity in this period. In conclusion, we found that sTfR concentrations do exhibit gestational age-related changes during pregnancy: the value of sTfR increased with gestational age during pregnancy and returned to nonpregnancy values 12 weeks after delivery. Increases in sTfR concentrations during pregnancy seem to be influenced more by increased erythropoietic activity than by iron depletion in this period.
