Insulin Receptor

Insulin receptor (IR), a phylogenetically ancient tyrosine kinase receptor, is a large cell surface glycoprotein that concentrates insulin at the site of action and also initiates responses to insulin. The receptor is a disulfide-linked oligomer comprised of two alpha and two beta subunits. The insulin receptor exists in two isoforms, IR-A and IR-B, expressed in different relative abundance in the various organs and tissues. The two IR isoforms have similar binding affinity for insulin but different affinity for insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-2 and proinsulin, which are bound by IR-A but not IR-B.

The insulin receptor has a crucial role in controlling glucose homeostasis, regulating lipid, protein and carbohydrate metabolism, and modulating brain neurotransmitter levels. Insulin receptor dysfunction has been associated with many diseases, including diabetes, cancer and Alzheimer's disease.

    Insulin (swine)
    99.90%
    Insulin (swine) is an orally active insulin derived from pigs. Insulin (swine) when administered orally acts as an antigen to reduce the severity of pancreatic lymphocyte infiltration, but has no metabolic effect on blood glucose levels. Insulin (swine) increases glucose oxidation, stimulates lipogenesis, and lowers blood glucose levels. Insulin (swine) can be used in diabetes research.

    Zenagamtide sodium
    Agonist 99.96%
    Zenagamtide (Amycretin; NN 9487) sodium is an orally active, blood-brain barrier permeable triple agonist that targets GLP-1, amylin (Amylin Receptor) and calcitonin receptor (Calcitonin Receptor). Zenagamtide sodium is a single peptide consisting of 68 amino acids that can target brain regions regulating food intake, significantly suppress appetite and reduce energy intake. Therefore, Zenagamtide sodium improves body weight, waist circumference, glycated hemoglobin and lipid profile, and also alleviates the histological features of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and enhances insulin sensitivity. Zenagamtide sodium may cause transient increases in heart rate and fluctuations in serum calcium levels, but it is an important compound for the study of overweight, obesity, insulin resistance and related metabolic diseases.
