Glucagon-like Peptide-2 (GLP-2) is a 33-amino acid peptide formed through post-translational proteolytic cleavage of proglucagon. GLP-2 produces a number of effects when administered to humans and rodents, including intestinal growth, enhancement of intestinal function, reduction in bone breakdown and neuroprotection. An analog of GLP-2, Teduglutide (cat# 471-21) is used to treat short-bowel syndrome.
