acetyl calpastatin(184 210)(human)

Selective calpain inhibitor. Strongly inhibits calpain I (Ki = 0.2 nM) and II but does not inhibit papain, trypsin and cathepsin L (Ki = 6 μM). Increases secretion of amyoid β-protein (Aβ) 42, Aβ40 and Aβ42 ratio.

Acetyl-Calpastatin (184-210)(human) acetate is a potent, selective and reversible calpain inhibitor with Ki values of 0.2 nM and 6 μM for µ-calpain and cathepsin L, respectively.

Acetyl-Calpastatin(184-210)(human) TFA, a potent, selective, and reversible calpain inhibitor, has Ki values of 0.2 nM for µ-calpain and 6 μM for cathepsin L, indicating high specificity and efficacy in enzyme inhibition [1] [2].

Acetyl β-endorphin (1-26) is a neuropeptide found in rat hippocampus, brain stem, and pituitary. It is also present in the human hypothalamus, where it comprises approximately 4.9% of total β-endorphin peptides. Acetyl β-endorphin (1-26) is produced through posttranslational processing of β-endorphin and is processed similarly in rat and human hypothalamus. Levels of acetyl β-endorphin (1-26) increase in the rat pars intermedia and brain stem following chronic administration of haloperidol .

Acetyl-ACTH (4-24) (human, bovine, rat), a proopiomelanocortin (POMC) peptide fragment, functions as an agonist at the MC-1 receptor [1]. This compound encompasses a sequence present in adrenocorticotrophin (ACTH), the precursor for α-MSH, illustrating its significant role in the POMC peptide family.

Acetyl-ACTH (7-24) (human, bovine, rat) effectively inhibits corticosterone and aldosterone secretion triggered by ACTH stimulation [1].

Acetyl-(D-Arg2)-GRF (1-29) amide (human) acts as a GRF antagonist and inhibits GH secretion, making it useful in endocrine research [1].

Acetyl Gastric Inhibitory Peptide (human), a fatty acid-derivatized analog of glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide, exhibits enhanced antihyperglycemic and insulinotropic characteristics. This compound is utilized in diabetes, insulin resistance, and obesity research [1] [2] [3].

Acetyl Gastric Inhibitory Peptide (human) TFA, a fatty acid-derivatized analog of the glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide, exhibits enhanced antihyperglycemic and insulinotropic properties. It is utilized in the research of diabetes, insulin resistance, and obesity [1] [2] [3].

Acetyl-ACTH (3-24) (human, bovine, rat), a segment derived from the proopiomelanocortin (POMC) peptide, functions as an agonist at the MC-1 receptor [1]. Encompassing adrenocorticotrophin (ACTH), a precursor to α-MSH, it illustrates its role within the spectrum of POMC peptides.

Acetyl-Heme-Binding Protein 1 (1-21) (human) is a peptide containing the first 21 amino acids of hemopexin Acetyl-Heme-Binding Protein 1, playing a role in heme binding, heme metabolism, and hemoglobin release [1].

Acetyl-ACTH (2-24) (human, bovine, rat), a proopiomelanocortin (POMC) peptide fragment, includes adrenocorticotrophin (ACTH) precursor of α-MSH and serves as an agonist at the MC-1 receptor [1].

Acetyl-Amylin (8-37) (human) is a specific amylin antagonist [1].
