General description
Exendin-3 is a pancreatic secretagogue, which is a member of the glucagon family. It is found in the venom of Heloderma horridurn, which is a Gila monster lizard. It has a molecular mass of 4200Da and is composed of 39 amino acids. 12 amino-acids region in its N-terminal is highly homologous to secretin. Its C-terminal contains an amide group.
Application
Exendin-3 has been used to assess its effect in glucagon receptor knockout mice (Gcgr-/-) and wild-type mice, on glucose-stimulated insulin secretion.
Other Notes
Originally isolated from Heloderma horridum (Gila monster lizard) venom.

An amino-terminal histidyl structure (His1) is characteristic of most peptides in the glucagon superfamily. An assay for His1 peptides performed by amino-terminal amino acid sequencing was used to screen venom from the Gila monster lizard, Heloderma horridum. Two His1 peptides

In previous studies, glucagon receptor knockout mice (Gcgr(-/-)) display reduced blood glucose and increased glucose tolerance, with hyperglucagonemia and increased levels of glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1. However, the role of glucagon receptor signaling for the regulation of islet function and insulin

To examine the influence of the putative satiety factor (GLP-1) on the hypothalamo-pituitary-gonadal axis, we used GT1-7 cells as a model of neuronal luteinizing hormone- releasing hormone (LHRH) release. GLP-1 caused a concentration-dependent increase in LHRH release from GT1-7 cells.
