Supplier: BioVendor, LLC YK081
PYY Mouse/Rat ELISA (96 wells). High sensitivity/specificity EIA (enzyme immunoassay) kit for quantitative determination of mouse/rat peptide YY in mouse or rat plasma and serum samples. Measures both PYY(3-36) and PYY(1-36). SAMPLE REQUIREMENT: 25 l. ASSAY RANGE: 0.15-12.5 ng/mL. OTHER NAMES: peptide tyrosine tyrosine, PYY-I, PYY1. SUMMARY: PYY is a polypeptide consisting of 36 amino acid residues. PYY is homologous to pancreatic polypeptide (PP) and neuropeptide Y (NPY). PYY is localized mainly in endocrine cells in the intestine (ileum, colon, and rectum). PYY inhibits contraction of the gastrointestinal tract and secretion of pancreatic and gastric juice. PYY concentration in the circulation increases postprandially and decreases by fasting. PYY level in blood decreases after resection of the intestine, possibly due to the decrease in number of the endocrine cells secreting PYY. Manufactured by Yanaihara Institute Inc., Japan.
