Purified pig insulin, conjugated to KLH (Uniprot: P01308)

Localization

Specificity

Recognizes a polypeptide which is identified as insulin, a 51-amino acid polypeptide composed of A and B chains connected through the C-peptide. Proinsulin, which has very little biological activity, is cleaved by proteases within its cell of origin into the insulin molecule and the C-terminal basic residue. Insulin enhances membrane transport of glucose, amino acids, and certain ions. It also promotes glycogen storage, formation of triglycerides, and synthesis of proteins and nucleic acids. Deficiency of insulin results in diabetes mellitus. The main storage site for insulin is the pancreatic islets. Antibodies to insulin are important as beta-cell and insulinoma marker.

Background: Insulin

Insulin is a secreted peptide hormone produced by the pancreas that regulates carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. Insulin is released from the pancreatic beta cells of the islets of Langerhans in response to secretagogues. Following its release, insulin quickly acts to both inhibit hepatic glucose production and stimulate peripheral blood glucose utilization. During this process cells in the liver, muscle, and fat are triggered to take up glucose and store it as glycogen, resulting in a decrease of blood glucose levels. From a clinical standpoint, the glucose lowering effect of insulin is its most relevant property. Insulin dysregulation, including insulin resistance, is associated with a number of pathological conditions such as diabetes, insulinoma, metabolic syndrome and polycystic ovary syndrome. Insulin is used to treat some forms of diabetes. Although antibody or auto-antibody against insulin isn't normally found in the blood, antibody may be produced in certain conditions including following an allergic response to insulin treatment for diabetes: IgG, IgM, and IgE antibody have all been described. The presence of auto-antibody, identified by an insulin antibody test, may have clinical significance by contributing to or causing insulin dysregulation.
