background | Hepcidin, the main regulator of iron metabolism, is synthesized and released by hepatocytes in response to increased body iron concentration and inflammation. Deregulation of hepcidin expression is a common feature of genetic and acquired iron disorders: in Hereditary Hemochromatosis (HH) and iron-loading anemias low hepcidin causes iron overload, while in Iron Refractory Iron Deficiency Anemia (IRIDA) and anemia of inflammation (AI), high hepcidin levels induce iron-restricted erythropoiesis. |
molecular weight | The protein has a predicted MW of 29.05 kDa same as Tris-Bis PAGE result. |
available size | 100 µg, 500 µg |
endotoxin | Less than 1EU per μg by the LAL method. |

Function Liver-produced hormone that constitutes the main circulating regulator of iron absorption and distribution across tissues. Acts by promoting endocytosis and degradation of SLC40A1, leading to the retention of iron in iron-exporting cells and decreased flow of iron into plasma. Controls the major flows of iron into plasma: absorption of dietary iron in the intestine, recycling of iron by macrophages, which phagocytose old erythrocytes and other cells, and mobilization of stored iron from hepatocytes. |
Subellular location Secreted . |
Tissues Highly expressed in the liver and to a much lesser extent in the heart. Secreted in blood (PubMed:15124018). |
Structure Interacts with SLC40A1; this interaction promotes SLC40A1 rapid ubiquitination. |
