12 C-peptide has a much longer half- life in plasma (~30 – 35 minutes) than mature insulin (~5 minutes) Preproinsulin must be processed into mature insulin through a series of cleavage and folding steps.
13 C peptideNormal Range (ng/mL) George’s Values (ng/mL) Fasting (8–10 hr)0.4 – hr post glucose2.0 – CQ#4: Are George’s test results most consistent with type 1 DM or type 2 DM? (Discuss with your group, and be prepared to defend your choice!) A.Type 1 B.Type 2 C.There is still not enough information to make a diagnosis
