GLP2A Antibodies are pivotal in studying GLP-2’s role in metabolic and inflammatory pathways.
GLP-2 enhances mucosal repair and modulates inflammation:
Mucosal Integrity: GLP-2 promotes crypt cell proliferation and inhibits apoptosis, increasing intestinal surface area .
Inflammatory Modulation: GLP-2 suppresses NF-κB and JAK/STAT3 pathways, reducing IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-1β expression .
Local GLP-2 production in human islets regulates islet inflammation:
Proinflammatory Conditions: Diabetogenic stress (high glucose/palmitate) or LPS exposure upregulates GLP-2 secretion, which dampens IL-1β and IL-10 expression .
Macrophage Crosstalk: GLP-2R activation reduces M1 macrophage polarization, lowering itaconate and succinate metabolites linked to inflammation .
