Glucagon-Like Peptide I (7-36), amide, human

Human glucagon-like peptide I amide fragment 7-36 was used in DMEM (Dulbeccos) medium to culture 3T3-L1 adipocytes to study the relationship between adipose tissue GLP-1 receptors and obesity and insulin resistance. GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide 1) (7-36) amide is a potent insulinotropic peptide that initiates glucose-induced insulin release after a meal or oral glucose. It has antidiabetic effects, so it may be used to treat non-insulin-dependent diabetes.
