General description

Measurement of C-peptide indicates the pancreatic β-cell function. Compared to endogenous insulin this protein is secreted at a more constant rate and for an extended time. Detection of C-peptide levels helps in diabetes diagnosis and management. The levels of C-peptide determine the type of diabetes and the duration of the disease.

Application

Rat/Mouse C-Peptide 2 ELISA has been used in in vivo experiments to determine the C-peptide levels in mice blood, sera, and plasma.

Features and Benefits

Each kit is sufficient to measure 39 unknown samples in duplicate.

C-peptide is a widely used measure of pancreatic beta cell function. It is produced in equimolar amounts to endogenous insulin but is excreted at a more constant rate over a longer time. Methods of estimation include urinary and unstimulated and

Gene therapy is one treatment that may ultimately cure type 1 diabetes. We have previously shown that the introduction of furin-cleavable human insulin (INS-FUR) to the livers in several animal models of diabetes resulted in the reversal of diabetes and

Disruption of insulin secretion and clearance both contribute to obesity-induced hyperinsulinemia, though reduced insulin clearance seems to be the main factor. The liver is the major site for insulin degradation, a process mainly coordinated by the insulin-degrading enzyme (IDE). The
