Function | GLP-1 (9-36) is the result of the rapid degradation of GLP-1 (7-36) amide, by the enzyme dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-4), which is widely expressed in a number of sites, including the endothelial cells of small gut arterioles. GLP-1 (9-36) accounts for the majority of GLP-1 that reaches the system circulation. Whereas GLP-1 (7-36) amide stimulates glucose-dependent insulin secretion and inhibits glucagon secretion, GLP-1(9-36) amide administration had no effect on glucose clearance or insulin secretion in humans. GLP-1(9-36) amide however was shown to exert cardioprotective actions in rodent hearts.;;Pyroglutamyl (pGlu) peptides may spontaneously form when either Glutamine (Q) or Glutamic acid (E) is located at the sequence N-terminus. The conversion of Q or E to pGlu is a natural occurrence and in general it is believed that the hydrophobic γ-lactam ring of pGlu may play a role in peptide stability against gastrointestinal proteases. Pyroglutamyl peptides are therefore considered a normal subset of such peptides and are included as part of the peptide purity during HPLC analysis. |
