| Description | α-Glucosidase, Yeast (α-D-Glucosidase, Yeast), a carbohydrate hydrolyzing enzyme, catalyzes the liberation of α-glucose from the non-reducing end of the substrate. α-Glucosidase can facilitate the absorption of glucose by the small intestine. Inhibition of α-Glucosidase is α-Glucosidase, Yeast (α-D-Glucosidase, Yeast), a carbohydrate hydrolyzing enzyme, catalyzes the liberation of α-glucose from the non-reducing end of the substrate. α-Glucosidase can facilitate the absorption of glucose by the small intestine. Inhibition of α-Glucosidase is an effective management of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM)[1][2]...

GIP (mouse) promotes insulin secretion from pancreatic β cells via the G-protein-coupled GIP receptor (GIPR). GIP (GIP (Gastric inhibitory polypeptide) (mouse) is a gastrointestinal hormone that is secreted by the intestinal K cells, and also expressed in and secreted from pancreatic islets. GIP (mouse) promotes insulin secretion from pancreatic β cells via the G-protein-coupled GIP receptor (GIPR). GIP (mouse) promotes pancreatic β cell proliferation and inhibits apoptosis. GIP (mouse) also exerts direct lipogenic effects on adipose tissue[1][2][3]...

TLQP-21 TFA activates C3aR1 to induce an increase of intracellular Ca2+TLQP-21 TFA, a VGF-derived peptide endowed of endocrine and extraendocrine properties, is a potent G-protein-coupled receptor complement-3a receptor1 (C3aR1) agonist (EC50: mouse TLQP-21=10.3 µM; human TLQP-21=68.8µM). TLQP-21 TFA activates C3aR1 to induce an increase of intracellular Ca2+. TLQP-21 TFA is used for the research in regulation of nociception and other relevant physiologic functions[1][2]... Read More |
