glp 2(rat)

intestinal epithelium-specific growth factor

GLP-2(rat) TFA, an intestinal growth factor, promotes cell proliferation and prevents apoptosis. Additionally, it increases mucosal mass and function in the residual small intestine following massive small bowel resection (MSBR), as documented in references [1] [2].

Hemopressin (rat) acetate is a nonapeptide derived from the α1-chain of hemoglobin, is originally isolated from rat brain homogenates. Hemopressin is orally active, selective and inverse agonist of CB2 cannabinoid receptors. Hemopressin exerts antinocicep

GLP-2(1-33) (human) is an enteroendocrine hormone which stimulates the growth of the intestinal epithelium.

GLP-2 (1-34) (human), a polypeptide secreted from the intestine shortly after eating, is utilized in research related to bone remodeling processes [1].

C-Peptide 2, rat acetate is a proinsulin component of inhibiting glucose-induced insulin secretion, consisting of acetate and a polypeptide composed of 31 amino acid residues [1] [2].

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

Urocortin, rat TFA is a neuropeptide and a potent endogenous CRFR agonist (Kis: 0.97 nM, 1.5 nM, and 13 nM for mouse CRF2β, rat CRF2α, and human CRF1).

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].

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

Peptide agonist for galanin receptors

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.

C-Peptide 2, rat, a 31-amino-acid peptide, serves as a constituent in proinsulin. It possesses the ability to hinder glucose-triggered insulin secretion.

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