Target Details for PPY

Target: PPY (Pancreatic Polypeptide (PPY))

Alternative Name: Pancreatic Prohormone

Background: Pancreatic hormone is synthesized in pancreatic islets of Langerhans and acts as a regulator of pancreatic and gastrointestinal functions and may be important in the regulation of food intake. Plasma levels of this hormone have been shown to be reduced in conditions associated with increased food intake and elevated in anorexia nervosa. In addition, infusion of this hormone in obese rodents has shown to decrease weight gain.Synonyms: Obinepitide, PNP, PPY, Pancreatic polypeptide
