Description

Gastric Inhibitory Polypeptide (Porcine) is a biologically active peptide hormone, also known as glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP). This high-purity porcine-derived peptide is a critical research tool for studying metabolic regulation, particularly its role in glucose homeostasis and insulin secretion. It is essential for researchers and developers in the pharmaceutical and life sciences sectors, supporting advanced studies in endocrinology, diabetes research, and the development of novel therapeutic agents.

Application

• Biomedical Research: Fundamental studies on the physiological role of GIP in glucose metabolism and insulin release.
• Drug Discovery & Development: Used as a reference standard and active ingredient in screening assays for GIP receptor agonists and antagonists.
• Metabolic Disease Models: Critical for in vitro and in vivo research models of type 2 diabetes and obesity.
• Antibody Production: Serves as an antigen for the generation of specific polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies.
• Cell Signaling Studies: Investigation of GIP receptor (GIPR) activation and downstream signaling pathways.
• Analytical Standard: Used as a primary standard in HPLC, LC-MS, and immunoassay methods for quantitative analysis.
