Post-acute sequelae of COVID (PASC), usually referred to as 'Long COVID'(a phenotype of
COVID-19), is a relatively frequent consequence of SARS-CoV-2 infection, in which …

In the last two decades we have witnessed sizable progress in defining the role of
gastrointestinal signals in the control of glucose and energy homeostasis. Specifically, the …

Islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP, or amylin) is one of the major secretory products of β-cells of
the pancreatic islets of Langerhans. It is a regulatory peptide with putative function both …

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a highly prevalent and chronic metabolic disorder. Recent
evidence suggests that formation of toxic aggregates of the islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) …

Amylin is a pancreatic β-cell hormone that produces effects in several different organ
systems. Here, we review the literature in rodents and in humans on amylin research since …

Islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP), a putative polypeptide hormone, is a product of pancreatic
beta-cells and the major constituent of the amyloid deposits seen mainly in islets of type 2 …

THE 37-amino-acid polypeptide amylin is the principal constituent of the amyloid deposits
that form in the islets of Langerhans in patients with type-2 diabetes mellitus1–5, but its role …

The hormone islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP, or amylin) plays a role in glucose
homeostasis but aggregates to form islet amyloid in type‐2 diabetes. Islet amyloid formation …

This review summarizes the receptor-mediated vascular activities of calcitonin gene-related
peptide (CGRP) and the structurally related peptide adrenomedullin (AM). CGRP is a 37 …

Human islet amyloid polypeptide (hIAPP) functions as a glucose-regulating hormone but
deposits as amyloid fibrils in more than 90% of patients with type II diabetes (T2D). Here we …
