C-peptide Test Overview
The C-peptide test serves as a means to measure the amount of C-peptide your body is making. Cpeptide is a byproduct released by the pancreas during the synthesis of insulin. Remarkably, the pancreas generates insulin and C-peptide in nearly equal amounts. Insulin, a vital hormone, plays a pivotal role in regulating the levels of glucose (sugar) in the bloodstream, with glucose serving as the primary energy source for the human body. Given that C-peptide is a byproduct directly related to insulin production, this test provides valuable insights into the body's insulin production levels.
Reasons to take the C-peptide Test
It is recommended when there is a need:
To evaluate the insulin production by the beta cells in the pancreas.
To help determine the cause of low blood sugar (hypoglycaemia), whether it is due to insulin-producing tumours in the body or due to insulin injections (medicinal insulin)It monitors how well the insulinomas (tumours) are responding to the treatment.
To distinguish between Type I and Type II diabetes mellitus.

List of Parameters Measured in the C-peptide Test in Bangalore
C-peptide is a short chain of amino acids that are released into the blood as a by-product of insulin production. This test analyses the amount of C-peptide in blood and helps evaluate the production of insulin made by the body (endogenous). It helps in differentiating the endogenous insulin from the insulin that is not produced by the body but is taken in as diabetic medication (exogenous). This is possible because the insulin that is taken as a diabetic medication does not generate a C-peptide. Beta cells in the pancreas produce proinsulin which is a biologically inactive molecule. This molecule may split apart to form one molecule of C-peptide and one molecule of insulin.
