What are some identifiers for the c peptide?
The connecting peptide, or C-peptide, is a short 31-amino-acid protein that connects insulin's A-chain to its B-chain in the proinsulin molecule. In the insulin synthesis pathway, first preproinsulin is secreted from the beta cells of the pancreas with an A-chain, a C-peptide, a B-chain, and a signal sequence. The signal sequence is cleaved from the N-terminus of the peptide by a signal peptidase, leaving proinsulin. Then the C-peptide is removed, leaving the A-chain and B-chain that constitute the insulin molecule.
What is the role of the heart in endocine system?
Heart produce two types of hormones: ANP and BNP (A and B type natriuretic peptide), they also limit fibrosis and hypertrophy. BNP can be used as drug in the treatment of acute heart failure.
Can the influenza type b virus create seizures?
Seizures are not a common symptom in influenza, however, they can accompany a high fever, such as often occurs with the flu. These are called febrile seizures.
