Collection: Hemopexin (HEMO)

Hemopexin (HEMO) is a plasma protein crucial for binding and clearing free heme from the bloodstream, thereby protecting tissues from oxidative damage and supporting iron metabolism. Glycosylation of HEMO enhances its stability and functionality, making it an important molecule for various applications. HEMO glycopeptides are valuable in therapeutic contexts due to their role in reducing oxidative stress and inflammation, which can be beneficial for conditions such as cardiovascular diseases and chronic inflammatory disorders. Their ability to regulate heme and iron homeostasis also positions them as a potential therapeutic agent for anemia and other hematological conditions. Additionally, HEMO glycopeptide properties are being explored for use in drug delivery systems and as biomarkers in diagnostic assays, aiming to improve clinical outcomes through targeted therapies and enhanced diagnostic accuracy.
