  1. 01LabEx vivo tissueMechanism

    In rat intestinal brush-border membranes, GRF(3-29)NH2 was the major metabolite of GRF(1-29)NH2, formed by the action of DPP IV.

    In plain wordsIn lab tests on rat gut membranes, the enzyme DPP IV broke GRF(1-29)NH2 down mainly into GRF(3-29)NH2.

    Summary
    Gradient HPLC analysis, mass balance analysis and studies of inhibitor effects revealed that GRF(3-29)NH2 was the major metabolite of GRF(1-29)NH2 due to the action of DPP IV during incubation with brush-border membranes.

  2. 02LabEx vivo tissuePharmacokinetics

    In rat intestinal brush-border membrane and homogenate, GRF(1-29)NH2 was much less stable than the plasma DPP IV-resistant analog [desNH2Tyr1,D-Ala2,Ala15]-GRF(1-29)NH2.

    In plain wordsIn lab tests on rat gut tissue, GRF(1-29)NH2 broke down much faster than a modified version resistant to the enzyme DPP IV.
