Product Overview :
Dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP IV) is a serine exopeptidase. The natural substrate of this enzyme include chemokines, cytokines, endomorphines, hormones and the pancreatic polypeptide of the PACAP/glucagons peptide family. Of particular interest is the ability of DPP IV to regulate incretin hormones. Since these hormones are deactivated by DPP IV, a multivalent method of treatment for type 2 diabetes and, more generally, in glucose metabolism disorders, is opened by the inhibition of this protease.
Usage :
The Calbiochem InnoZyme DPP IV Immunocapture Activity Assay is intended for the measurement of human DPP IV activity in biological samples such as cell lysates, tissue extracts, and biological fluids.
