🧬 基因注释:GLP2R
官方名称:glucagon like peptide 2 receptor
功能摘要:This gene encodes a G protein-coupled receptor closely related to the glucagon receptor that binds glucagon-like peptide 2 (GLP-2). Activation of this gene stimulates intestinal growth by increasing villus height, enhancing crypt cell proliferation, and reducing enterocyte apoptosis, thereby promoting nutrient absorption and maintaining gut barrier integrity. Glucagon like protein 2 receptor signaling also regulates intestinal blood flow, supports mucosal healing after injury, and modulates gut hormone secretion. In addition, it has been implicated in metabolic homeostasis and may influence energy balance and glucose metabolism. Dysregulation of this receptor or its signaling pathways is associated with intestinal disorders, including short bowel syndrome and inflammatory bowel disease. This receptor is a potential therapeutic target for enhancing intestinal regeneration and treating gastrointestinal diseases. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2026].
