Pancreatic polypeptide (human)
Cat. No. NY-030
Structure:
H-Ala-Pro-Leu-Glu-Pro-Val-Tyr-Pro-Gly-Asp-Asn-Ala-Thr-Pro-Glu-Gln-Met-Ala-Gln-Tyr-Ala-Ala-Asp-Leu-Arg-Arg-Tyr-Ile-Asn-Met-Leu-Thr-Arg-Pro-Arg-Tyr-NH2
Other Names:
Pancreatic polypeptide, PP
Activity:
Endogenous agonist for the human NPY Y4 receptor
Pancreatic polypeptide (human) is an endogenous high affinity agonist for the human NPY Y4 receptor, with a Ki of 0.056 nM. Pancreatic polypeptide (human) is produced and secreted by PP cells of the pancreas which are primarily located in the Islets of Langerhans and is a member of the family of peptides that includes peptide YY (PYY) and neuropeptide Y (NPY). Pancreatic polypeptide (human) is rapidly released after a meal and in humans remains elevated for 4-6 hours, with the vagus nerve being the major stimulator. Pancreatic polypeptide (human) causes a sustained decrease in both appetite and food intake.
