Application Notes

This antibody binds to GIPr, a GPCR expressed on pancreatic beta-cells, where activation leads to the release of insulin. Endogeonous ligands for the receptor include oleylethanolamide and lysophosphatidylcholine. The antibody acts as a competitive antagonist. In rat islets, the antibody inhibits GIP-induced secretion of insulin by up to 81%.

Short Description

This chimeric dog antibody was made using the variable domain sequences of the original Mouse scFv format, for improved compatibility with existing reagents, assays and techniques.
