M1145 acetate, a chimeric peptide, is a selective galanin receptor type 2 (GAL2) agonist, with a Ki of 6.55 nM. M1145 acetate shows more than 90-fold higher affinity for GAL2 over GAL1 (Ki=587 nM) and a 76-fold higher affinity over GalR3 (Ki=497 nM). M1145 acetate has an additive effect on the signal transduction of galanin[1].

Potent and selective galanin receptor 2 (GAL2) agonist (EC50 = 38 nM, Ki values are 6.55, 497 and 587 nM at GAL2, GAL3 and GAL1 respectively). Has an additive effect on the signal transduction of galanin.
