CPF-7
CPF-7 (Caerulein precursor fragment) is an insulin-releasing peptide that stimulates the release of insulin. CPF-7 can induce epithelial-mesenchymal transition by upregulating Snai1 expression in PANC-1 ductal cells. CPF-7 also induces exocrine plasticity by upregulating Ngn3 expression. CPF-7 can be used in the research of type 2 diabetes.

Biological Activity
CPF-7 (50 nM; 7 days) converts PANC-1 exocrine cells into pancreatic endocrine precursor cells[1].
CPF-7 (3 µM; 20 min) produces the stimulation of insulin release in BRIN-BD11 rat clonal β-cells[2].
