| Description | Ac-YVAD-pNA is a specific Caspase-1 substrate. Ac-YVAD-pNA can be used to detect Caspase-1 activity. Caspase-1 is a key mediator of inflammatory processes[1][2] | 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 (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]... Read More | Neuromedin U, rat TFA is a 23-amino acid brain-gut peptide. Neuromedin U (NMU), through its cognate receptor NMUR2 in the central nervous system, regulates several important physiological functions, including energy balance, stress response, and nociception | PG-931, an analog of SHU 9119 (HY-P0227), is a potent melanocortin 4 (MC4) receptor (IC50=0.58 nM) agonist and is more selective than for the hMC3R (IC50=55 nM) or the hMC5R (IC50=2.4 nM). PG-931 can reverse haemorrhagic shock and prevent multiple organ damage in vivo[2] | Pyruvate decarboxylase (Kp-IpdC) is a biochemical reagent that can be used as a biological material or organic compound for life science related research |
