Vglycin (Vg)

Vglycin contains six cysteine residues at sites 3,7,15,20,22 and 32 and forms three pairs of disulfide bonds, can resist the degradation of gastrointestinal protease, with oral hypoglycemic effect[1,2].

Usage and Biology

The concrete biological functions of Vg have been proved by previous studies.The long-term administration of Vg has excellent hypoglycemic and lipid-lowering effect on mice.P37 has a hypoglycemic effect comparable to metformin on this graph. The other two figures are evidence of reduction of belly fat and liver fat. Moreover, previous studies also proved Vg can repaired the damage pancreas induced by streptozotocin. These are some experimental evidence.

Application

Compared with traditional small-molecule chemical drugs, active peptide drugs P37 have small molecular weight, simple structure and no immunogenicity. The mechanism of action is clear and the side effects are low; Synthetic purity, easy synthesis and other unique advantages[3].It can resist the degradation of gastrointestinal proteases and has the effect of oral hypoglycemia.

Functional Parameters

function

This sequence codes for Vglycin, which is a peptide derived from leguminous plants. It contains 37 amino acids. It has six cysteine residues located at positions 3, 7, 15, 20, 22, and 32, forming three pairs of disulfide bonds within the molecule. It is resistant to degradation by gastrointestinal proteases and has the effect of lowering blood sugar when taken orally. Vg has excellent hypoglycemic effect on mice and can repair damaged pancreas.
