Insulin EIA Diabetes and Obesity Markers 008-10-1113-01

Description: Insulin is the principal hormone responsible for the control of glucose metabolism. It is synthesized in the b-cells of the islets of Langerhans as the precursor, proinsulin, which is processed to form C-peptide and insulin. Both are secreted in equimolar amounts into the portal circulation. The...

Ghrelin, Total ELISA Test

Description:...hether increased Ghrelin levels in anorexia nervosa reflect a pathophysiological state of Ghrelin resistance analogous to that of leptin resistance in obesity remains to be elucidated. In addiction, the development of a Ghrelin antagonist, or the development of a mechanism to inhibit Ghrelin release to contr...

PYY, Total ELISA Test

Description:... obese subjects. Endogenous levels of PYY3-36 were low in the obese subjects, suggesting that PYY3-36 deficiency may contribute to the pathogenesis of obesity and infusion of PYY3-36 caused a significant decrease in the cumulative 24-hour caloric intake in both obese and lean subjects. The same group of inve...

Leptin Soluble Receptor ELISA Test

Description:...ls and several measures of adiposity demonstrates that leptin levels are elevated even in obese patients. This is contrary to earlier suggestions that obesity was the result of a leptin deficiency. The failure of elevated leptin levels to alter the obese state of these individuals may instead be related to a...
