pancreatic α

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.

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].
