Biochem/physiol Actions

Hepcidin is the master regulator of iron homeostasis. Hepcidin is found in liver, but also widely distributed in brain, where it may play a role in preventing iron-related neurodegeneration. Hepcidin has anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activity.
Hepcidin-25 is the major isoform of hepcidin. hepcidin‐25 with reticulocyte hemoglobin content (CHr) in the hepcidin‐25 plot helps to differentiate DA can be differentiated iron‐deficient anemia (IDA) from the anemia of chronic disease (ACD) and the combined state of ACD/IDA. Mutation in the hepcidin gene is associated with the development of severe juvenile hemochromatosis.
