Pancreatic Polypeptide (rat),Catalog Number: KS041015,CAS NO.: 96849-38-6 This peptide is amino acids 13 to 23 fragment of the insulin B chain. Insulin is an important autoantigen in the pathogenesis of type 1 diabetes. This sequence represents an important T cell epitope for islet-infiltrating T cells in NOD mice.
GIP (human),Catalog Number: KS041003,CAS NO.: 100040-31-1 GIP (Glucose-dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide or also known as Gastric Inhibitory Polypeptide) is a 42-amino acid peptide released by the K cells of the duodenum and jejunum in response to food intake. GIP, together with GLP (Gastric-like Peptide) are members of the hormone peptide family of Incretins which stimulate insulin secretion from pancreatic islet -cells, and also appears to promote beta cell proliferatio
