Hephaestin Antibody (C-8) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 kappa light chain antibody that detects Hephaestin of mouse origin by western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), immunohistochemistry with paraffin-embedded sections (IHCP), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Hephaestin (C-8) antibody is available in both non-conjugated and various conjugated forms, including agarose, horseradish peroxidase (HRP), phycoerythrin (PE), fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), and multiple Alexa Fluor® conjugates. Hephaestin is a single-pass type I membrane protein that belongs to the multicopper oxidase family and plays a vital role in iron metabolism. Specifically, Hephaestin functions as a copper-dependent ferroxidase, facilitating the export of iron from intestinal enterocytes into the bloodstream. This process is essential for maintaining systemic iron homeostasis, as iron remains available for various physiological functions, including hemoglobin synthesis and cellular respiration. Hephaestin′s ability to bind six copper ions per monomer is crucial for enzymatic activity, and expression is regulated by the homeobox transcription factor CDX2, which is upregulated in response to increased iron levels. Hephaestin is primarily localized in the intestine but is also found in the colon, breast tissue, bone trabecular cells, and fibroblasts, highlighting importance in both iron and copper metabolism across different tissues.
