Bioactivity Amylin, amide, rat is a potent and high affinity ligand of Amylin receptor AMY1 and AMY3 receptors and variably of AMY2 receptors; binding studies are generally used for the latter receptor.
Invitro Amylin is an important, but poorly understood, 37 amino acid glucoregulatory hormone with great potential to target metabolic diseases. Amylin is a member of the calcitonin (CT) family of peptides, which includes CT itself, the CGRPs comprising two variants (αCGRP and βCGRP), adrenomedullin (AM) and AM2 (intermedin). Amylin is a centrally acting, neuroendocrine hormone synthesized with insulin in the beta cells of pancreatic islets. Amylin regulates glucose homeostasis by inhibiting gastric emptying, inhibiting the release of the counter-regulatory hormone glucagon and inducing meal-ending satiety. Amylin functions as a glucoregulatory and satiety-inducing hormone, which is protective against postprandial spikes in blood glucose and overeating.[1]
