Usage

General Description

C-peptide (Human) is a protein fragment that is produced in the body as a byproduct of insulin production, specifically within the pancreatic beta cells. It helps to mediate the physiological effects of insulin and maintain its levels in the body. C-peptide has been established as an important marker for evaluating the production and secretion of insulin, which is crucial for managing conditions like diabetes. It is also essential in assessing the success of pancreas or islet transplantations, as well as in distinguishing between type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Recent studies have also suggested that C-peptide may have some therapeutic benefits, although this area remains largely unexplored.
