A 69-amino acid peptide derived from the N-terminal of PROGLUCAGON. It is mainly produced by the INTESTINAL L CELLS. Further processing of glicentin yield a 30-amino acid N-terminal peptide (glicentin-related polypeptide) and a 37-amino acid peptide OXYNTOMODULIN. Both glicentin and oxyntomodulin can reduce digestive secretions and delay gastric emptying.
Glicentin has been studied across 14 research domains including 🦠 Gut & Microbiome, 🧬 Hormones, 🔥 Metabolic, 🔬 Oncology, 🛡️ Immunity. The primary research focus is 🦠 Gut & Microbiome with 39% of studies addressing this area.
