Abstract

Our objective is to use the guinea pig model to evaluate the immunogenicity of recombinant insulin and three specific insulin analogs: Glargine, Aspart, and Lispro. These analogs have been structurally modified from the original insulin sequence to enhance their pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties, leading to better blood glucose management in diabetic patients. This study aims to determine whether these commercially available analogs can trigger an immune response, potentially leading to the production of antibodies. Such immune responses could reduce the effectiveness of the insulin analogs and cause adverse effects. Additionally, we aim to gain valuable insights into the immunogenicity of these insulin analogs, thereby enhancing our understanding of their safety and efficacy. This knowledge will support the development of improved insulin therapies for diabetes management.
