ISF402 is an investigational peptide tetramer which helps dispersal of insulin via zinc chelation, therefore allowing insulin hexamers to break free.
- Mechanism
- Curator reviewed
Insulin is released from the pancreas as hexamers. ISF402, a naturally occurring peptide tetramer, helps dispersal of insulin by allowing the insulin molecules to break free. As single molecules, the insulin is immediately available to bind to receptors on the liver, signalling the liver to take up and store sugar molecules from the blood. ISF402 also amplifies the signal generated by the receptors so that less insulin is needed for the liver's response. [Dia B Tech Website]
