LEAP-2 ELISA kit: The perfect kit for your metabolic disease research from Bertin Technologies
LEAP-2, or Liver-Expressed Antimicrobial Peptide 2, is important in human health and disease. As a member of the antimicrobial peptide family, LEAP-2 plays a crucial role as a natural defence mechanism against various microbial threats including bacteria, fungi, and viruses.
LEAP-2 also acts as an antagonist to ghrelin, a peptide hormone known for its role in stimulating appetite and regulating energy balance; ghrelin promotes hunger and increases food intake, LEAP-2 counteracts these effects by inhibiting ghrelin’s action. This relationship helps maintain a balance in appetite regulation.
Additionally, LEAP-2 is involved in regulating inflammatory responses and maintaining the balance of gut microbiota, contributing to overall gastrointestinal health.
Understanding the function and regulation of LEAP-2 has implications for the development of novel therapeutic strategies for infectious diseases, inflammatory conditions, and gastrointestinal disorders. Furthermore, LEAP-2 may serve as a potential biomarker for certain diseases, aiding in diagnosis and prognosis.
