amylin, amide, rat

Amylin is a peptide that displays 50% homology with calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), Amylin is colocalized with somatostatin in endocrine cells of the gastric fundus. In isolated mouse stomach, amylin caused a concentration-dependent decrease in ac

Galanin (2-11) amide is a synthetic peptide fragment of the neuropeptide galanin and an agonist of the galanin-2 (GAL2) receptor (EC50= 9.32 nM in a fluorescence imaging plate reader assay).1It selectively binds to the GAL2receptor (IC50= 1.76 nM for the rat receptor) over the GAL1receptor (IC50= 879 nM for the human receptor) but does also bind to the GAL3receptor (Ki= 271 nM for the rat receptor).1,2Intracerebroventricular administration of galanin (2-11) amide (1 nmol/animal) decreases immobility in the forced swim test in rats.3It also reduces the hind paw mechanical pain threshold and increases the hind paw cold sensitivity threshold in rats.1

(Asn10,Leu11,D-Trp12)-pTH-Related Protein (7-34) amide (human, mouse, rat) is a potent antagonist of the PTH-1R [1][2].

GLP-1 (1-36) amide (human, rat) is a molecular variant of the GLP-1 (7-36) amide and has the capacity to stimulate [14C]aminopyrine accumulation in enzymatically dispersed, enriched rat parietal cells [1].

PTH-Related Protein (7-34) amide (human, mouse, rat) serves as a potent antagonist of parathyroid hormone (PTH) [1].

Osteostatin (1-5) amide (human, bovine, dog, horse, mouse, rabbit, rat), also known as Human PTHrP (107-111) amide, is a C-terminal fragment of parathyroid hormone-related protein that inhibits bone resorption [1][2].

GLP-1 (1-36) amide (human, rat) TFA, a variant of GLP-1 (7-36) amide, induces [14C]aminopyrine accumulation in enzymatically dispersed enriched rat parietal cells [1].

Amylin (8-37), rat, a truncated analog of native Amylin, selectively inhibits insulin-related glucose uptake and glycogen deposition in muscle tissue. Amylin, also known as islet amyloid precursor peptide (IAPP), is co-secreted with insulin from pancreatic β-cells.

Human PTHrP-(1-34)NH2, also known as PTH-Related Protein (1-34) amide for human, mouse, and rat, is the N-terminal fragment of PTHrP. This peptide induces hypercalcemia and is utilized in the study of humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy [1].

GLP-1 amide is a peptide hormone cleaved from proglucagon in the pancreas.1,2 Mice lacking the glucagon receptor (Gcgr-/-) have approximately nine-fold higher levels of total GLP-1 amide, including GLP-1 (1-36) amide and truncated GLP-1 (7-36) amide , in pancreatic tissue compared to wild-type mice.2References1.

Amylin, amide, human TFA, a 37-amino acid polypeptide, functions as a pancreatic hormone cosecreted with insulin, playing distinct roles in metabolism and glucose homeostasis by regulating blood sugar through inhibiting glucagon secretion, delaying gastric emptying, and promoting satiety [1].

Caveolin-1 (82-101) amide (human, mouse, rat), also known as Caveolin-1 scaffolding domain peptide, mitigates aging-related detrimental alterations in various organs and inhibits tyrosine kinases [1].

Amylin, a 37-amino acid polypeptide that is structurally related to calcitonin, is secreted from the B cells of the pancreas. Amylin has anoretic effects in rats. Amylin may be responsible for the etiology of insulin resistance of type II diabetes mellitu
