| Description | GLP-1 (7-36) amide also called Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 (7-36) amide, Preproglucagon (98-127) amide, is secreted from the lower small intestine and shows a strong insulinotropic effect. GLP-1 (7-36) amide is considered as the most important incretin hormone. Its action is mediated by receptors expressed by the endocrine pancreatic B-cells. Considerable interest has focused on the development of this peptide as a therapeutic strategy for non-insulin-dependent (type 2 ) diabetes mellitus and associated neuropathy. |
