Description | GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide, also known as gastric inhibitory polypeptide) is a 42 amino acid peptide released by K cells in the duodenum and jejunum after eating. GIP and GLP (gastric-like peptides) are members of the incretin hormone peptide family, which can stimulate pancreatic β-cells to secrete insulin, and promote β-cell proliferation and β-cell survival. Recent studies have shown that GIP plays a role in lipid homeostasis and may play a role in the pathogenesis of obesity. |
