3.75 ug/ml

Immunohistochemistry-Paraffin

3.75 ug/ml

Peptide ELISA

Detection limit 1:16000

Western Blot

1 ug/ml
Application Notes
Western blot: Preliminary experiments gave an approx 28kDa band in Human Liver lysates after 0.1ug/ml antibody staining. Please note that currently we cannot find an explanation in the literature for the band we observe given the calculated size of 9.41kDa according to NP_066998.1. The 28kDa band was successfully blocked by incubation with the immunizing peptide.
IHC: Paraffin embedded Human Heart.
Please Note: Optimal dilutions of this antibody should be experimentally determined.

Background: Hepcidin

The product encoded by this gene is involved in the maintenance of iron homeostasis, and it is necessary for the regulation of iron storage in macrophages, and for intestinal iron absorption. The preproprotein is post-translationally cleaved into mature peptides of 20, 22 and 25 amino acids, and these active peptides are rich in cysteines, which form intramolecular bonds that stabilize their beta-sheet structures. These peptides exhibit antimicrobial activity. Mutations in this gene cause hemochromatosis type 2B, also known as juvenile hemochromatosis, a disease caused by severe iron overload that results in cardiomyopathy, cirrhosis, and endocrine failure.
