Difference between Enteroendocrine cell and Glucagon-like peptide-2

Enteroendocrine cell vs. Glucagon-like peptide-2

Enteroendocrine cells are specialized cells of the gastrointestinal tract and pancreas with endocrine function. Glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2) is a 33 amino acid peptide with the sequence HADGSFSDEMNTILDNLAARDFINWLIQTKITD (see Proteinogenic amino acid) in humans.

Similarities between Enteroendocrine cell and Glucagon-like peptide-2

Enteroendocrine cell and Glucagon-like peptide-2 have 3 things in common (in Unionpedia): Endocrine system, Gastrointestinal tract, Glucagon-like peptide-1.

Endocrine system

The endocrine system is a chemical messenger system consisting of hormones, the group of glands of an organism that carry those hormones directly into the circulatory system to be carried towards distant target organs, and the feedback loops of homeostasis that the hormones drive.

Gastrointestinal tract

The gastrointestinal tract (digestive tract, digestional tract, GI tract, GIT, gut, or alimentary canal) is an organ system within humans and other animals which takes in food, digests it to extract and absorb energy and nutrients, and expels the remaining waste as feces.

Glucagon-like peptide-1

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is a 30 amino acid long peptide hormone deriving from the tissue-specific posttranslational processing of the proglucagon peptide.
