• Beschreibung: Hepcidin product containing the disulfide Bonds: Cys4-Cys20, Cys7-Cys10, Cys8-Cys16, and Cys11-Cys19 and available in the trifluoroacetate salt form. Hepcidin-22 is a variant of the peptide hormone hepcidin-25, which plays an important role in the regulation of iron metabolism in the body. Hepcidin is produced by the liver and is secreted into the bloodstream.Hepcidin binds to ferroportin, a protein that facilitates the export of iron from cells into the bloodstream, and to inhibit its activity.The biological significance of hepcidin-22 is still being studied, but it may play a role in the regulation of iron metabolism in certain situations, such as inflammation or certain disease states. Both hepcidin-22 and hepcidin-25 are targets for the development of treatments for iron-related disorders, such as anemia of chronic disease and hemochromatosis.
