背景:Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4) or adenosine deaminase complexing protein 2 (ADCP 2) or T-cell activation antigen CD26 is a serine exopeptidase belonging to the S9B protein family that cleaves X-proline dipeptides from the N-terminus of polypeptides, such as chemokines, neuropeptides, and peptide hormones.
The enzyme is a type II transmembrane glycoprotein, expressed on the surface of many cell types.
It is also present in serum and other body fluids in a truncated form (sCD26/DPPIV).
The soluble CD26 (sCD26) as a tumour marker for the detection of colorectal cancer (CRC) and advanced adenomas.
As both a regulatory enzyme and a signalling factor, DPP4 has been evaluated and described in many studies.
DPP4 inhibition results in increased blood concentration of the incretin hormones glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP).
This causes an increase in glucose-dependent stimulation, resulting in a lowering of blood glucose levels.
Recent studies have shown that DPP4 inhibitors can induce a significant reduction in glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA(1c)) levels, either as monotherapy or as a combination with other antidiabetic agents.
Research has also demonstrated that DPP4 inhibitors portray a very low risk of hypoglycaemia development, and are a new pharmacological class of drugs for treating Type 2 diabetes.

遺伝子構造:The native mature form of human DPPIV (NP_001926.2) extracellular domain (Asn 29-Pro 766) was expressed and purified.
組成:Lyophilized from sterile 100mM NaCl, 50mM Tris, pH 7.5Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization.Please refer to the specific buffer information in the printed manual.
保存条件:Generally, lyophilized proteins are stable for up to 12 months when stored at -20 to -80℃. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-8℃ for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20℃ for 3 months.
