Product Description
Amylin, amide, human, is a 37-amino-acid polypeptide that is a pancreatic hormone co-secreted with insulin and plays a unique role in metabolism and glucose homeostasis. Amylin, amide, human Inhibits glucagon secretion, delays gastric emptying, and works as a satiety agent.
Amylin, amide, human (CAS#: 122384-88-7) is a 37-amino acid polypeptide hormone, also known as islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP). It is co-secreted with insulin by pancreatic β-cells. It plays a unique role in metabolism and glucose homeostasis. Amylin inhibits glucagon secretion, delays gastric emptying, and acts as a satiety agent. Its molecular formula is C165H261N51O55S2 with a molecular weight of approximately 3903.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Amylin acts on specific receptors in the brain, including the area postrema, to regulate food intake and glucose metabolism. It inhibits glucagon secretion from pancreatic α-cells and delays gastric emptying. Its primary actions are mediated through the amylin receptor, which is a complex of the calcitonin receptor and receptor activity-modifying proteins (RAMPs).
ln Vitro
MCF-7 cells endogenously express human amylin receptors CTR1 and CTR2. Stimulation of the receptor with amylin, amide, or human results in the generation of cAMP. Human amide amylin (0.001 nM-1000 μM) has an EC50 of 35.2±7.5 nM[1].
Amylin, amide, human inhibits glucagon secretion, delays gastric emptying, and acts as a satiety agent. It is a pancreatic hormone that works in concert with insulin to regulate postprandial glucose levels. In vitro, it can be used to study its effects on glucagon secretion in isolated pancreatic islets and its effects on gastric emptying in isolated stomach preparations.
ln Vivo
A subcutaneous injection of 400 μg peptide/kg body weight of human amide amylin was administered to various groups of male Swiss mice. With a half-life of 23 minutes, free amylin showed a normal PK profile [1].
In vivo, Amylin, amide, human plays a critical role in regulating postprandial glucose levels. It inhibits glucagon secretion, which helps prevent excessive glucose production by the liver. It also delays gastric emptying, which slows the absorption of glucose from the gut. These actions, combined with its satiety-inducing effects, make it an important hormone in glucose homeostasis.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro assays for Amylin involve measuring its ability to inhibit glucagon secretion. Isolated pancreatic islets are treated with varying concentrations of Amylin, and glucagon levels in the medium are measured by ELISA. Receptor binding assays can be performed using membrane preparations from cells expressing the amylin receptor, with radiolabeled Amylin as a tracer.
Cell Assay
Cell Viability Assay [1]
Cell Types: MCF-7 Cell
Tested Concentrations: 0.001 nM, 0.01 nM, 0.1 nM, 1 nM, 10 nM, 100 nM, 1 μM, 10 μM, 100 μM, 1000 μM
Incubation Duration:
Experimental Results: Generated The EC50 is 35.2±7.5 nM cAMP.
In vitro cell-based assays for Amylin are performed using cell lines that express the amylin receptor, such as certain neuronal cell lines. Cells are treated with the peptide, and downstream signaling pathways (e.g., cAMP) are measured. The compound's ability to inhibit glucagon secretion can be studied in pancreatic α-cell lines or isolated islets.
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: Swiss male mice (8 weeks old) [1]
Doses: 400 μg peptide/kg body weight (pharmacokinetic/PK/PK analysis)
Route of Administration: subcutaneousroute; 24-hour
Experimental Results: Half time 23 minutes.
In vivo animal studies for Amylin are conducted to study its effects on glucose homeostasis, food intake, and gastric emptying. The peptide is administered to rodents, and plasma glucose, insulin, and glucagon levels are measured. Food intake and gastric emptying rates are also assessed. These studies are used to understand the physiological role of Amylin and its potential as a therapeutic target for diabetes and obesity.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Amylin is a 37-amino acid peptide hormone with a molecular weight of approximately 3903. As a peptide, it is susceptible to proteolytic degradation in vivo, which limits its half-life. It should be stored as a lyophilized powder at -20°C. It is soluble in aqueous solutions. For in vivo administration, solutions should be prepared fresh.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
No specific toxicity data are documented for Amylin in the provided sources. As an endogenous hormone, it is naturally produced in the body and plays a role in glucose homeostasis. However, the accumulation of amylin in pancreatic islets is associated with type 2 diabetes. In research settings, standard laboratory safety practices should be followed.

Additional Infomation
Amyloid-3 is a hormone secreted by pancreatic β-cells, co-secreting with insulin. It exerts an anorexic effect on nutrient metabolism by inhibiting gastric acid secretion, gastric emptying, and postprandial glucagon secretion. Pancreatic amyloid polypeptides can fold into amyloid fibers, which have been found to be the main component of pancreatic amyloid deposits.

Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
