Hepcidin
Hepcidin is a 25-amino acid peptide hormone produced primarily by hepatocytes. It plays a central role in iron homeostasis by regulating iron absorption, distribution, and storage.

Samples were centrifuged at 1500 g for 15 min at room temperature and plasma was stored at − 80 °C. Measurements were done in heparin anti-coagulated plasma. Serum iron, transferrin, ferritin and haptoglobin were measured by immunoturbidimetric methods (Roche Cobas c702). Transferrin saturation was calculated by the formula serum iron/(25.2 × transferrin). Hepcidin (R&D), soluble transferrin receptor (sTfR) (Biovendor), erythroferrone (MyBioSource) and IL-6 levels (R&D) were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kits.
About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
