Xenin-8 (TFA)

Xenin-8 TFA, a C-terminal octapeptide, is a biologically active fragment of Xenin. Xenin is a 25-amino acid peptide of the neurotensin/xenopsin family. Xenin-8 TFA stimulates basal insulin secretion and potentiates the insulin response to glucose in a dose-dependent manner (EC50=0.16 nM) [1].
