    Insulin (human) purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: Signal Transduct Target Ther. 2025 Nov 4;10(1):361.  [Abstract]

    Tissues from GIST patient samples were digested and resuspended in GIST primary cell culture medium, 1% Anti-Anti, 50 ng/mL SCF, 125 ng/mL EGF, 20 ng/mL bFGF (HY-P7004), 25 ng/mL Hydrocortisone (HY-N0583), and 5 µg/mL Insulin. Olverembatinib inhibited lipid droplet accumulation and lipid uptake in SDH-deficient GIST primary cells and downregulated CD36 in primary SDH-deficient GIST cells..

    For insulin tolerance tests, mice on HFD for 15 weeks received an intraperitoneal injection of Insulin (1.0 U/kg body weight) after 6 hours of fasting. Glucose level was measured in tail blood at 0, 15, 30, 60, 90, and 120 mins after glucose or insulin injection using a glucometer.

    Insulin tolerance tests (ITT) were performed by intraperitoneally injecting Insulin (0.75 unit/kg in 0.9% wt/vol saline) to mice that had been fasted for 6 h. Blood glucose levels were measured at 0, 15, 30, 60, and 120 minutes using an Infinity glucose meter.

    Description

    Insulin (human) is a polypeptide hormone that regulates the level of glucose. Insulin (human) can be used for the diabetes mellitus[1][2].

    In Vitro

    The human insulin gene contains two intervening sequences, one is within the region transcribed into the 5'-untranslated segment of the mRNA and the other interrupts the C-peptide encoding region[1]. Human insulin is commonly used to treat type 2 diabetes[2].

    MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

    In Vivo

    Insulin (human) (0.75 U/kg; ip; once) can significantly reduce blood glucose levels in 15 minutes[1].

    MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

    Animal Model: Slc35d3-Flox mice and Slc35d3-wild type mice injected with 100 mg/mLl D-Glucose (HY-B0389)[1]
    Dosage: 0.75 U/kg
    Administration: ip; once
    Result: Significantly lowers blood glucose levels.

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
