what is 'amylin'?
Definition for Amylin
Amylin, or Islet Amyloid Polypeptide (IAPP), is a 37-residue peptide hormone secreted by pancreatic ?-cells at the same time as insulin (in a roughly 1:100 amylin:insulin ratio). [ 1 ]
Islet, or insulinoma, amyloid polypeptide (IAPP, or amylin) is commonly found in pancreatic islets of patients suffering diabetes mellitus type 2 , or harboring an insulinoma .

Amylin, or Islet Amyloid Polypeptide (IAPP), is a 37-residue peptide hormone secreted by pancreatic ?-cells at the same time as insulin (in a roughly 1:100 amylin:insulin ratio). [ 1 ]
Islet, or insulinoma, amyloid polypeptide (IAPP, or amylin) is commonly found in pancreatic islets of patients suffering diabetes mellitus type 2 , or harboring an insulinoma . While the association of amylin with the development of type 2 diabetes has been known for some time, [ 2 ] a direct causative role for amylin has been harder to establish. Recent results suggest that amylin, like the related beta-amyloid (Abeta) associated with Alzheimer's disease , can induce apoptotic cell-death in insulin -producing beta cells , an effect that may be relevant to the development of type 2 diabetes.
