YII

This EIA kit is highly specific to human GLP-2 and shows crossreactivity to neither glucagon (rat/mouse/human) nor GLP-1 even at a concentration of 300 pmol/mL.
Supplementary: Competitive
Applicable Sample: Plasma, Serum
Other: Proglucagon gene is expressed in both pancreatic A cell and intestinal L cell. Tissue-specific posttranslational processing of proglucagon by prohormone convertase produces different proglucagon derived peptides (PGDPs) in both pancreas and intestine. The most notable pancreatic PGDP is glucagon, whereas intestinal L cell produces several structurally related peptides, including glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) and2 (GLP-2), as well as glicentin and oxyntomodulin which contain glucagon sequence in their molecules. Among PGDPs, GLP-2 has been found to show intestinal epithelial proliferation.
