Towards an Understanding of the Role of VGF-Derived Peptides

Pro-VGF, a product of the vgf gene, is expressed in abundance in neuronal and neuroendocrine cells, including the β cells of the islet of Langerhans. Post translational endoproteolytic processing of pro-VGF results in formation of several biologically active peptides, which are secreted in response...
