Amylin Compared with Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide: Structure, Biology, and Relevance to Metabolic Disease

1 Apr 1994

Abstract excerpt

ISLETβ-cells play a central role in the regulation of most cells in the body through secretion of insulin. These cells are now known to secrete a second hormone-like protein, amylin, also known as islet or insulinoma amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) (1–4) as well as numerous other compounds (5) in response to stimuli that elicit insulin release (6–9). Amylin is structurally similar to calcitonin gene-related peptide...
