Pepsinogen C (PGC) is an enzyme that functions as a precursor to the digestive enzyme pepsin. PGC possesses the ability to hydrolyze a diverse range of proteins. This enzyme is primarily synthesized and secreted by the gastric chief cells in the stomach lining. Once released into the acidic environment of the stomach, PGC undergoes cleavage to form pepsin, an active protease responsible for breaking down dietary proteins into smaller peptides. The conversion of PGC to pepsin is facilitated by the low pH of the stomach, triggering the activation of this zymogen. The role of PGC in the digestive process is crucial for the initial breakdown of ingested proteins, enabling their subsequent digestion and absorption in the gastrointestinal tract. Understanding the activation and function of PGC contributes to insights into the intricate mechanisms of protein digestion and gastric physiology.
