Endogenous agonist for the human NPY Y4 receptor.
Pancreatic polypeptide (human) is an endogenous high affinity agonist for the human NPY Y4 receptor, with a Ki of 0.056 nM. Pancreatic polypeptide (human) is produced and secreted by PP cells of the pancreas which are primarily located in the Islets of Langerhans and is a member of the family of peptides that includes peptide YY (PYY) and neuropeptide Y (NPY). Pancreatic polypeptide (human) is rapidly released after a meal and in humans remains elevated for 4-6 hours, with the vagus nerve being the major stimulator. Pancreatic polypeptide (human) causes a sustained decrease in both appetite and food intake.
