Información del producto

• Nombre: GLP-1 (1-37) (human, bovine, guinea pig, mouse, rat)
• Sinónimos: Proglucagon (72-108) (human, bovine, guinea pig, mouse, rat)
• Marca: Bachem
• Descripción: Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 (GLP-1) is synthesized by posttranslational processing of proglucagon in the intestine and pancreas and plays an important role in metabolic homeostasis. Among the different molecular forms, such as GLP-1 (7-36) amide and GLP-1 (7-37), the function of GLP-1 (1-37) has been unclear. GLP-1 (1-37) was shown to convert intestinal epithelial cells into insulin-producing cells. These observations turned GLP-1 (1-37) into a new promising therapeutic compound for the treatment of diabetes mellitus. In animal models of dilated cardiomyopathy, hypertensive heart failure, and myocardial infarction, GLP-1 has shown a remarkable cardioprotective activity.
