Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Hepcidin-25 antibody (AB30760)

IHC image of Hepcidin-25 staining in Human normal liver formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue section*, performed on a Leica Bond™ system using the standard protocol F. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20 mins. The section was then incubated with ab30760, 5μg/ml, for 15 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX.

For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated) customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, primary antibody concentration and antibody incubation times.

Performed on a Leica BONDTM system using the standard protocol F. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH 6.0, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20mins. The section was then incubated with ab30760 at 10µg/ml, for 15 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX. The inset secondary-only image is taken from an identical assay without primary antibody.

Supplementary information

Hepcidin-25 also known simply as hepcidin is a 25-amino acid peptide hormone with a molecular weight of approximately 2.8 kDa (kilodaltons). This peptide is primarily produced in the liver and circulates in the bloodstream. Mechanically hepcidin regulates iron homeostasis by binding to the iron export channel ferroportin on cell surfaces like enterocytes in the gut and macrophages. By binding ferroportin hepcidin induces its internalization and degradation reducing iron efflux into the plasma.
Biological function summary

Hepcidin serves as the master regulator of iron metabolism. Unlike many peptides it does not form part of a larger protein complex. Its activity ensures adequate iron levels for erythropoiesis while preventing toxic iron overload. It affects not only the liver but also distant tissues like the bone marrow and spleen. Hepcidin inhibits iron absorption in the intestine and controls iron release from macrophages and hepatic stores maintaining systemic iron concentration within a narrow range.

Pathways

Hepcidin operates within the complex network of iron metabolism and erythropoiesis pathways. It is particularly important in the liver hepcidin signaling pathway and the systemic iron regulation pathway. Hepcidin interacts closely with proteins like ferroportin its receptor and target as well as other iron transporters which ensures efficient iron allocation in the body. It also connects to other regulatory molecules like transferrin receptor and ferritin key players in iron transport and storage.

Hepcidin has significant implications for conditions like anemia of chronic disease and hereditary hemochromatosis. In anemia of chronic disease hepcidin production increases abnormally trapping iron within cells and reducing its serum levels therefore decreasing hemoglobin synthesis despite adequate iron stores. In hereditary hemochromatosis genetic mutations lead to low hepcidin levels causing excess iron absorption and progressive iron overload in tissues. The connection of hepcidin to proteins like ferroportin and transferrin receptor helps elucidate its role in these diseases.

Target data

Liver-produced hormone that constitutes the main circulating regulator of iron absorption and distribution across tissues. Acts by promoting endocytosis and degradation of ferroportin/SLC40A1, leading to the retention of iron in iron-exporting cells and decreased flow of iron into plasma (PubMed : 22682227, PubMed : 29237594, PubMed : 32814342). 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 (PubMed : 22306005).. Has strong antimicrobial activity against E.coli ML35P N.cinerea and weaker against S.epidermidis, S.aureus and group b streptococcus bacteria. Active against the fungus C.albicans. No activity against P.aeruginosa (PubMed : 11034317, PubMed : 11113131).
