NVP DPP 728 dihydrochloride

NVP-DPP728 is a potent, reversible, nitrile-dependent inhibitor of dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) with an inhibition constant (K i) of 11 nM for human DPP-IV amidolytic activity. By inhibiting the degradation of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), NVP-DPP728 enhances insulin release following glucose intake, making it useful for diabetes research [1].
