C-peptide human

Description:
C-peptide, or connecting peptide, is a byproduct of insulin synthesis in the pancreas. It is produced when proinsulin is cleaved into insulin and C-peptide, which are released into the bloodstream in equimolar amounts. The CAS number 11097-48-6 specifically identifies human C-peptide. This peptide consists of a chain of amino acids and plays a crucial role in the regulation of insulin secretion and glucose metabolism. C-peptide is often used as a biomarker to assess insulin production in individuals, particularly in the context of diabetes management. Unlike insulin, C-peptide has a longer half-life in circulation, making it a useful indicator of endogenous insulin secretion. It is generally considered non-active in terms of metabolic effects but may have some physiological roles, such as promoting cell survival and regeneration. C-peptide levels can be measured through blood tests, providing valuable insights into pancreatic function and the body's insulin production capabilities.
