Human Total PYY Kit
|
| Peptide-YY (PYY) is a 36-amino acid peptide secreted from the intestinal L-cells of the gastrointestinal tract in proportion to the caloric content of a meal. Two endogenous forms, PYY(1-36) and PYY(3-36), are released into circulation; PYY(3-36) is the major form (60%) of PYY in gut mucosal endocrine cells and in the blood stream. This form results from the cleavage of PYY by the enzyme dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV). Some studies have reported that obese individuals have lower basal fasting levels of PYY(3-36) and have a smaller rise in postprandial levels suggesting PYY may be a potential therapeutic target in obesity. The Human Total PYY Kit provides a plate pre-coated with streptavidin (the user adds human PYY capture antibody conjugated to biotin) and the assay-specific components for the quantitative determination of endogenous PYY(1-36) and PYY(3-36) in human serum, plasma and cell supernatant. |
