Human Glucagon Like Peptide 2 (GLP2) ELISA Kit

Glucagon-Like Peptide-2 (GLP-2) is a 33-residue proglucagon-derived peptide hormone secreted by enteroendocrine L cells of the distal ileum and colon. It signals through the GLP-2 receptor to stimulate crypt cell proliferation, mucosal repair, and nutrient absorption, acting as a central regulator of intestinal adaptation after injury or resection. This Assay Genie kit enables quantitative measurement of GLP-2 in human-derived specimens, supporting research into short bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease, mucosal healing, neonatal gut development, and incretin signaling pathways. The assay is supplied in a microplate format with all reagents required for in vitro use, and is compatible with liquid specimens, homogenized tissue, cell lysates, and conditioned cell culture media. Investigators characterizing postprandial gut hormone release, intestinal adaptation following surgical resection, GLP-2 receptor pharmacology, or the metabolic crosstalk between the gut and other endocrine axes can integrate this kit into standard laboratory workflows.
