GIP (human)
Description: Potent insulinotropic gut hormone; GIP agonist
Alternative Names: Gastric Inhibitory Polypeptide (human)
Purity: ≥95%
Biological Activity
GIP (human) is a potent insulinotropic hormone synthesized by duodenal K-cells. High affinity GIP receptor agonist (EC50 = 0.81 nM) that inhibits gastric acid secretion and stimulates pancreatic insulin release in response to glucose. Also affects lipid metabolism and displays mitogenic and antiapoptotic effects in pancreatic β-cells.Technical Data
