Abstract
Pancreatic insulin secretion is under control by peptides, as well as by nutrients and other substances(1,2). Truncated glucagon like peptide-1 (tGLP-1), gastric inhibitory peptide (GIP) and glucagon, the members of glucagon/VIP/secretin family of peptides, stimulate insulin release in a low concentration range around 10−9 M, and are thought to be involved in the physiological regulation of insulin release(3–5).
