• Molecular Weight: 3765.25 (free base)
• Purity: ≥95%

Apraglutide TFA (FE 203799 TFA), a synthetic 33-amino-acid peptide and a long-acting GLP-2 analogue, enhances adaptation and linear intestinal growth in a neonatal piglet model of short bowel syndrome with total resection of the ileum[1].
Apraglutide (FE 203799; 5 mg/kg/dose, subcutaneously, twice on days 0 and 4 postsurgery) treated piglets are healthy, have significant lower fecal fat and energy losses and exhibite intestinal lengthening, greater small-intestinal weight, longer villus height, and greater crypt depth on day 7[1].
