Function
Liver-produced hormone that constitutes the main circulating regulator of iron absorption and distribution across tissues. Acts by promoting endocytosis and degradation of ferroportin, 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 (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:11113131, PubMed:11034317). -
Tissue specificity
Highest expression in liver and to a lesser extent in heart and brain. Low levels in lung, tonsils, salivary gland, trachea, prostate gland, adrenal gland and thyroid gland. Secreted into the urine. -
Involvement in disease
Hemochromatosis 2B -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the hepcidin family. -
Cellular localization
Secreted. - Information by UniProt

Form
Hepcidin produces a propeptide of 84 amino acids that undergoes enzymatic cleavage into mature peptides of 20, 22, and 25 amino acids. Active peptides are rich in cysteines that form intramolecular bonds and stabilize the beta-sheet structure -

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.
