As the only known iron exporter, FPN1 is critical for maintaining systemic iron homeostasis (1). FPN1 activity is regulated by hepcidin, a peptide hormone secreted by the liver in response to iron loading and inflammation. Circulating hepcidin binds to FPN1 and induces its internalization and degradation, thereby reducing iron efflux to the plasma (2,3). Expression of FPN1 may also be regulated post-transcriptionally by several microRNAs that directly target its 3' untranslated region (4-6). Mutations in the gene encoding FPN1 are associated with type IV hemochromatosis (7) as well as several neural tube and patterning defects, including spina bifida,Â exencephaly, and forebrain truncations (8). Loss of FPN1 in the brains of Alzheimer's disease (AD) mouse models and patients has been shown to promote ferroptosis, leading to neuronal death and memory impairment. Therefore, targeting of FPN1 may be a promising therapeutic approach for AD (9).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nferroportin 1; Ferroportin-1; FPN1; HFE4; IREG1; iron regulated gene 1; Iron-regulated transporter 1; MST079; MSTP079; MTP1; putative ferroportin 1 variant IIIB; S40A1; SLC11A3; SLC40A1; solute carrier family 11 (proton-coupled divalent metal ion transporters), member 3; solute carrier family 40 (iron-regulated transporter), member 1; Solute carrier family 40 member 1\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 62\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799603433641,"sku":"48322S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-48322s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
