Other Notes

Small volumes of HEPC elisa kit vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.

Searchable Terms for HEPC purchase

MBS017183 is a ready-to-use microwell, strip plate ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) Kit for analyzing the presence of the Hepcidin, ELISA Kit target analytes in biological samples. The concentration gradients of the kit standards or positive controls render a theoretical kit detection range in biological research samples containing HEPC. The ELISA analytical biochemical technique of the MBS017183 kit is based on HEPC antibody-HEPC antigen interactions (immunosorbency) and an HRP colorimetric detection system to detect HEPC antigen targets in samples. The ELISA Kit is designed to detect native, not recombinant, HEPC. Appropriate sample types may include undiluted body fluids and/or tissue homogenates, secretions. Quality control assays assessing reproducibility identified the intra-assay CV (%) and inter-assay CV(%). Iron is both a requirement and a highly toxic element for life. In human biology, iron is tightly regulated in serum samples by hepcidin. Disease states, like hepatitis virus - HCV low - infections elevate level and result in iron deficiency while low levels in patients causes clinical toxic overload. Therefore, detection by serum hepcidin ELISA for animal disease models like guinea pig hepcidin, mouse hepcidin and rat hepcidin is a powerful research ally. No matter your species our pig hepcidin ELISA, mouse hepcidin ELISA, human hepcidin ELISA or this specific rat hepcidin ELISA is sure to get your data correctly. We supply 1 plate prebound to antibody to test in the assay, along with anti rat secondary labeled antibodies, standard reagent and all needed kit solution stocks. ELISA kit protocol is detailed, like all our ELISA kits, on rt datasheet, included in hepcidin ELISA kit 96 test packages.

NCBI Summary for HEPC

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.

UniProt Comments for HEPC

HAMP: Seems to act as a signaling molecule involved in the maintenance of iron homeostasis. Seems to be required in conjunction with HFE to regulate both intestinal iron absorption and iron storage in macrophages. Defects in HAMP are the cause of hemochromatosis type 2B (HFE2B); also known as juvenile hemochromatosis (JH). HFE2B is a disorder of iron metabolism with excess deposition of iron in the tissues, bronze skin pigmentation, hepatic cirrhosis, arthropathy and diabetes. The most common symptoms of hemochromatosis type 2 at presentation are hypogonadism and cardiomyopathy. Belongs to the hepcidin family.

Protein type: Secreted; Secreted, signal peptide

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 19q13.1

Cellular Component: apical cortex; extracellular region

Molecular Function: hormone activity

Biological Process: killing of cells of another organism; cellular iron ion homeostasis; defense response to bacterium; immune response; defense response to fungus

Disease: Hemochromatosis, Type 2b
