anxiolytic effect

Glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine is a synthetic hepatotrophic agent and liver cell growth factor that stimulates the production of hepatic erythropoietic factor.

MCL0020 is a potent and selective melanocortin MC4 receptor antagonist (IC50 values are 11.63, 1115, and >10,000 nM at MC4, MC3, and MC1 receptors, respectively). It significantly reverses stress-induced anorexia without affecting food intake in free-feeding rats and exhibits anxiolytic-like activity in vivo.

Phoenixin-20 (PNX-20) is a vertebrate bioactive peptide with hormone-like actions, stimulating the hypothalamo-pituitary-gonadal axis to regulate mammalian reproduction, enhancing neuronal mitochondrial biogenesis via the CREB-PGC-1α pathway, and possessing an anxiolytic effect [1] [2] [3].

Phoenixin-14 (PNX-14), an active endogenous isoform, induces an anxiolytic effect by activating the AHA GnRH system in mice and protects against ischemia/reperfusion-induced cytotoxicity in microglia [1] [2].
