Hepcidin regulates the quantity of ferroportin (FPN) on cellular membrane. In our cell assay expressing ferroportin labeled with green fluorescence, FPN was internalized and degraded only after treatment with hepcidin-25, not hepcidin-22 or hepcidin-20, leading to accumulation of cellular iron. Thus we generated murine monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against hepcidin-25, and then characterized and validated their functions. Among them, several mAbs showed a neutralizing activity that may prevent ferroportin internalization induc
