Hemopexin
Active
Description
Hemopexin (or haemopexin), also known as HPX, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the HPX gene.
Its levels in serum reflect how much heme is present in the blood. Therefore, high hemopexin levels indicates that there has been significant degradation of heme containing compounds and hemopexin is made to scavenge any heme it can. Low hemopexin levels are one of the diagnostic features of a hemolytic anemia.
