Abstract
ABSTRACT
A cDNA encoding hepcidin was isolated from a library of cDNA from spleen of red sea bream (
Chrysophrys major
) by expressed sequence tag analysis. The expression of the hepcidin mRNA in various tissues was examined. Challenge of red sea bream with
Escherichia coli
DH5α elevated hepcidin mRNA levels in spleen, gill, liver, and intestine.
