Serum C-peptide level is a measure of insulin production by the pancreas, as it is released in equal amounts with insulin when proinsulin is cleaved. It is commonly used to assess beta-cell function in individuals with Diabetes, helping to differentiate between type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Elevated C-peptide levels may indicate insulin resistance or excess insulin production, while low levels suggest reduced insulin secretion. Overall, it serves as a valuable marker for understanding metabolic status and insulin dynamics.
