C-peptide – A Promising Biomarker Beneath the Radar of Diabetes Therapeutics

Khushdeep Bandesh and Avijit Podder

C-peptide is a product of insulin biosynthesis and its independent functional role has been largely overlooked. Administration of C-peptide along with regular insulin therapy tends to comfort or delay late stage diabetic complications. The article collates mechanistic role of C-peptide in diabetes, its clinical measurement and prospective therapeutic potential.
