Biological Activity
Diprotin A is a tripeptide inhibitor of dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4; IC50 = 1.1 μg/ml).It inhibits degradation of glucagon-like peptide 1 in culture with insulin-secreting BRIN-BD11 rat pancreatic β-cells when used at a concentration of 25 μM.Diprotin A (5 mg/ml) pre-incubation enhances chemotaxis of murine embryonic stem cells towards stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1/CXCL12) in vitro.Pre-incubation of CD34+ human umbilical cord blood cells with diprotin A (5 mM) prior to injection increases engraftment in NOD/SCID recipient mice.
