Biotinyl-Amylin (human) - HY-P4863

Biotinyl-Amylin (human) is a biotin-labeled derivative of Amylin, amide, human (HY-P1070). Biotinyl-Amylin (human) acts as a competitive agonist for the Calcitonin Receptor (CTR) and for the Amylin receptors (AMY1, AMY2, and AMY3) formed by the association of CTR with RAMP1/2/3. By mimicking endogenous human amylin, Biotinyl-Amylin (human) binds to and activates CTR and AMY receptors, thereby initiating downstream signaling pathways involving cAMP, CREB, and ERK1/2, while retaining high-affinity receptor binding and activation capabilities. Biotinyl-Amylin (human) is primarily utilized in studies investigating the metabolic regulatory mechanisms underlying obesity and diabetes; it is also applicable to pharmacological research, receptor localization studies, and ligand-binding assays related to Amylin receptors in the context of Alzheimer's disease[1].
