insulin

Insulin (human) is a peptide hormone that promotes glycogen synthesis and regulates glucose levels in the blood. Insulin (human) has hypoglycemic activity and is used clinically to treat hyperglycemia in diabetic patients.

This peptide is a fragment of the alpha-chain of insulin amino acids 1 to 13. The insulin a-chain epitope recognized by human T cells is posttranslationally modified.

Insulin glulisine (HMR 1964) is a rapid-acting analog that closely resembles the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of physiological human insulin, making it applicable in diabetes research [1].

Insulin peglispro (BIL) represents a basal insulin characterized by a sustained, stable activity pattern. This compound demonstrates enhanced glucose regulation abilities when compared to traditional insulins [1].

Insulin(cattle) is a peptide hormone that promotes glycogen synthesis and regulates glucose levels in the blood. Insulin has hypoglycemic activity and is used clinically to treat hyperglycemia in diabetic patients.

Insulin glargine, a long-acting insulin analog, is utilized for the treatment of diabetes mellitus [1].

Insulin β Chain Peptide (15-23), also referred to as INS, is an insulin-derived peptide specifically recognized by islet-associated T cells. The tetramer of Insulin β Chain Peptide (15-23) effectively stained the INS-reactive CTL clone G9C8; however, neither this tetramer nor the negative control tetramer (TUM) stained splenic CD8+ T cells from NOD or 8.3-TCRαβ transgenic NOD mice.

[pTyr1146][pTyr1150][pTyr1151]Insulin Receptor (1142-1153) acts as a substrate for insulin receptor tyrosine kinase, binding effectively to insulin with potential applications in scientific research and medicine.

Insulin Detemir, an artificial insulin, effectively controls blood sugar levels by stimulating GLP-1 secretion through enhanced Gcg expression via the activation of Akt- and or extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)-dependent-cat and CREB signaling pathways. It is applicable for type 2 diabetes research [1] [2].

Insulin (swine), a porcine-derived insulin, is utilized in diabetes research [1].

Human proinsulin, the single-chain peptide precursor of insulin, consists of the insulin A and B chains connected by the 31 amino acid C-peptide. Cleavage of proinsulin by proteolytic enzymes produces insulin and free C-peptide.

Proinsulin C-peptide human acetate (Proinsulin C-peptide human acetate (33017-11-7 Free base)) is a polypeptide of 31 amino acid residues that links the A and B chains of proinsulin to ensure proper folding, has biological activity and regulates cellular functions.

Proinsulin C-Peptide (31-63), porcine, is a peptide derived from the cleavage of porcine proinsulin, covering amino acid residues 31 to 63.

Proinsulin C-peptide (human) is a 31-amino acid peptide that links the Proinsulin A and B chains, ensuring their proper folding, biological activity, and regulation of cellular functions.

GIP (3-42), human (Gastric Inhibitory Polypeptide (3-42) (human)) is a peptide that acts as a glucose-dependent proinsulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptor antagonist and regulates insulin secretion and the metabolic effects of GIP in vivo, which can be used to study type 2 diabetes.

GIP (1-39) acetate is a gastric inhibitory peptide (GIP) purified from porcine intestine and stimulates insulin secretion.

Dimethyl DL-glutamate is a cell-permeant glutamic acid derivative that enhances insulin release in response to glucose in isolated islets and in animal models of diabetes.

Galantide acetate, a non-specific galanin receptor antagonist, is a peptide consisting of fragments of galanin and substance P. Galantide acetate recognizes two classes of galanin binding sites (KD<0.1 nM and ~6 nM) in the rat hypothalamus. Galantide acetate dose dependently (IC50=1.0 nM) antagonizes the galanin-mediated inhibition of the glucose-induced insulin secretion from mouse pancreatic islets. Galantide acetate appears to bind to a single population of SP receptors (KD~40 nM).

S961 is a high-affinity, selective insulin receptor (IR) antagonist with IC50 values of 0.048 nM for HIR-A, 0.027 nM for HIR-B, and 630 nM for human insulin-like growth factor I receptor (HIGF-IR) in scintillation proximity assays.

Apelin-13 is a 13-amino acid peptide sequence found in the central and peripheral nervous system that is an endogenous ligand for the G protein-coupled receptor angiotensin II protein J (APJ), with an EC50 value of 0.37 nM for APJ.Apelin-13 has vasodilatory and antihypertensive activity and can be used to study type 2 diabetic syndrome. Apelin-13 has vasodilatory and antihypertensive activities and can be used to study type 2 diabetes syndrome.

Octreotide (SMS 201-995) is a potent inhibitor of growth hormone, glucagon, and insulin.

Urocortin III is a neuropeptide hormone and member of the corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) family which includes mammalian CRF , urocortin , urocortin II , frog sauvagine, and piscine urotensin I.1 Human urocortin III shares 90, 40, 37, and 21% identity to mouse urocortin III , mouse urocortin II , human urocortin , and mouse urocortin, respectively. Urocortin III selectively binds to type 2 CRF receptors (Kis = 21.7, 13.5, and >100 nM for rat CRF2α, rat CRF2β, and human CRF1, respectively). It stimulates cAMP production in CHO cells expressing rat CRF2α and mouse CRF2β (EC50s = 0.16 and 0.12 nM, respectively) as well as cultured anterior pituitary cells expressing endogenous CRF2β. Urocortin III is co-released with insulin to potentiate glucose-stimulated somatostatin release in vitro in human pancreatic β-cells.2 In vivo, urocortin III reduces food intake in a dose- and time-dependent manner in mice with a minimum effective dose (MED) of 0.3 nmol/animal.3 It increases swimming time in a forced swim test in mice, indicating antidepressant-like activity.4References1.
