Product Information

• Name: Hepcidin-9 (Mouse)
• Synonyms: H-Asp-Thr-Asn-Phe-Pro-Ile-Cys-Ile-Phe-NH2
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Hepidin-9 (mouse), a trifluoroacetate Salt product, is a variant of the peptide hormone hepcidin-25 that is produced in mice. Hepcidin plays a critical role in regulating iron metabolism in the body by controlling the activity of ferroportin, a protein that facilitates the export of iron from cells into the bloodstream.In mice, hepcidin is primarily produced in the liver, and its expression is regulated by a variety of factors, including iron status, inflammation, and erythropoietic signals. Hepcidin has been found to play a critical role in the development of iron-related disorders in mice, including anemia and iron overload.The study of Hepcidin-9 can provided important insights into the regulation of iron metabolism in mammals and may help to inform the development of treatments for iron-related disorders in humans.
