Glicentin Rat ELISA

Summary

Glicentin is a 69-amino-acid peptide containing glucagon and oxyntomodulin sequences in the molecule. It is a major form of gut glucagon-like immunoreactants. In mammalian small intestine, proglucagon is processed into glicentin. The physiological role of glicentin is still unclear. It has been known that the circulating level of plasma glicentin-like peptides increases significantly nutrient ingestion.
