Pancreatic Polypeptide, rat acetate is an agonist of NPY receptor, with high affinity at NPYR4.

Pancreatic Polypeptide (human) acetate is a C-terminally amidated 36 amino acid peptide, which acts as a neuropeptide Y (NPY) Y4/Y5 receptor agonist.

Pancreatic polypeptide, a peptide produced by the pancreas's endocrine PP cells, modulates pancreatic secretory functions and influences hepatic glycogen levels and gastrointestinal secretion [1].

Pancreatic Polypeptide, rat, is an agonist of the NPY receptor with high affinity at NPYR4. Pancreatic Polypeptide (PP) is a 36-amino acid, C-terminally amidated peptide and a member of the PP-fold peptide family. It is produced and secreted by the PP cells of the islets of Langerhans.

Endogenous high affinity agonist for human NPY Y4 receptor (Ki = 0.056 nM). Believed to play an important role in the function of the gastrointestinal tract.

Agonist at Y4 neuropeptide Y receptors.

Aprotinin (Traskolan) is a broad-spectrum serine protease (BPTI) inhibitor that inhibits the activity of a number of different esterases and proteases. Aprotinin is an antifibrinolytic agent used to minimize hemorrhage during complex surgical procedures.

Elastase from porcine pancreas is a serine protease derived from the porcine pancreas, consisting of 240 amino acid residues. It has the ability to hydrolyze proteins and peptides, can induce emphysema in hamsters, and is commonly used to establish animal models of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Glucagon (1-29), bovine, human, porcine hydrochloride (Porcine glucagon hydrochloride) is a peptide hormone produced by pancreatic α-cells that activates HNF4α, increases HNF4α phosphorylation, and stimulates gluconeogenesis.

[cPP1-7,NPY19-23,Ala31,Aib32,Gln34]-hPancreatic Polypeptide is a potent and selective neuropeptide Y Y5 receptor agonist, exhibiting a binding affinity with an IC50 of 0.24 nM for the hY5 receptor, and significantly stimulates food intake [1].

Potent, selective peptide agonist for the neuropeptide Y Y5 receptor (IC50 values for inhibition of NPY binding to human Y5, Y1, Y2 and Y4 receptors are 0.24, 530, > 500, and 51 nM respectively, Ki at Y5 = 0.1 - 0.15 nM). Stimulates food intake in vivo.

Glucagon (1-29), bovine, human, porcine is a hormone produced by pancreatic α-cells with glucagon activity, which promotes glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis, and is used in the study of obesity and diabetes.

GLP-1 amide is a peptide hormone cleaved from proglucagon in the pancreas.1,2 Mice lacking the glucagon receptor (Gcgr-/-) have approximately nine-fold higher levels of total GLP-1 amide, including GLP-1 (1-36) amide and truncated GLP-1 (7-36) amide , in pancreatic tissue compared to wild-type mice.2References1.

Certepetide (CEND-1), also known as iRGD, is a bifunctional cyclic peptide that enhances tumor penetration. By interacting with alphav-integrins through its RGD motif and activating NRP-1, it transforms the solid tumor microenvironment into a temporary conduit for therapeutic agents. This property facilitates Certepetide's accumulation in tumors, making it a valuable tool in researching pancreatic cancer and other solid tumors [1] [2] [3].
