GLP-2, Human

Human GLP-2 is a 33-residue proglucagon-derived intestinal hormone that supports mucosal growth, nutrient absorption and intestinal barrier function through GLP-2 receptor signaling.

• gastrointestinal hormone research
• incretin and metabolic signaling
• gut-brain axis studies
• GPCR and endocrine pharmacology

Exact peptide boundaries and C-terminal amidation are integral to product identity. In incretin studies, distinguish intact bioactive hormones from DPP-4-cleaved metabolites and analogs.
