In Vitro | Amylin is an important, but poorly understood, 37 amino acid glucoregulatory hormone with great potential to target metabolic diseases. Amylin is a member of the calcitonin (CT) family of peptides, which includes CT itself, the CGRPs comprising two variants (αCGRP and βCGRP), adrenomedullin (AM) and AM2 (intermedin). Amylin is a centrally acting, neuroendocrine hormone synthesized with insulin in the beta cells of pancreatic islets. Amylin regulates glucose homeostasis by inhibiting gastric emptying, inhibiting the release of the counter-regulatory hormone glucagon and inducing meal-ending satiety. Amylin functions as a glucoregulatory and satiety-inducing hormone, which is protective against postprandial spikes in blood glucose and overeating.[1] |
