C-peptide, izwi kandi kugahuza peptide, ni aside ihuza amino mu musaruro wa insulin. Yarekuwe na pancreas hamwe na insuline kandi ikora nkigishushanyo nyamukuru cyo gusuzuma imikorere ya pancreatic. Mugihe insuline igenga urugero rwisukari yamaraso, C-Pepdede igira uruhare rutandukanye kandi ni ngombwa mu gusobanukirwa ubuzima butandukanye, cyane cyane diyabete. Mu gupima urwego rwa C-Peptide, abatanga ubuvuzi barashobora gutandukanya ubwoko bwa 1 na diyabete yo mu bwoko bwa 2, bayobora ibyemezo byo kuvura, no gukurikirana imikorere yo kuvura.

Gupima urwego rwa C-Peptide ni ngombwa mugusuzuma no kuyobora diyabete. Abantu bafite diyabete yo mu bwoko bwa 1 busanzwe bafite urwego ruto cyangwa rutagaragara rwa insuline na C-peptide kubera igitero simutaburigisigi kuri insuline. Ku rundi ruhande, abantu bafite diyabete yo mu bwoko bwa 2 barashobora kugira urwego rwa C-peptide kubera ko imibiri yabo itanga insuline ariko zirwanya ingaruka zacyo. Gukurikirana urwego rwa C-Peptide mu barwayi, nk'iyi mbaraga zirimo selile zirimo, zirashobora gutanga ubushishozi bw'agaciro gutsinda inzira z'ubuvuzi.

Ubushakashatsi bwanasuzumye kandi ingaruka zishobora kurinda C-peptide ku ngingo zitandukanye. Ubushakashatsi bumwe bwerekana ko C-Peptide ishobora gutunga ibintu byo kurwanya umuriro bishobora gufasha kugabanya ingofero ijyanye na diyabete, nk'ibyangiritse. Nubwo C-peptide ubwayo itagira ingaruka muburyo butaziguye urwego rwamaso ya glucose, ikora nkaomarker ifite agaciro yo gucunga diyabete no kudoda gahunda yo kuvura ibikenewe ku giti cye. Niba ushaka gucengera cyane diyabete yo gusobanukirwa, gukomezaAmakuru yubucuruziBifitanye isano no gutera imbere nubuvuzi birashobora gutanga ubushishozi bwingenzi kubanyamwuga nabarwayi.
