Description: Peptide to Ghrelin, Human Form: Lyophilized powder CAS Number : 258279-04-8Molecular Formula : C149H249N47O42Molecular Weight : 3370.9Purity : > 95%Chemical Structure : Gly-Ser-Ser (n-octanoyl)-Phe-Leu-Ser-Pro-Glu-His-Gln-Arg-Val-Gln-Gln-Arg-Lys-Glu-Ser-Lys-Lys-Pro-Pro-Ala-Lys-Leu-Gln-Pro-ArgApplication : Human ghrelin (GHR), the endogenous ligand of the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R), potently stimulates GH release. The Ser³ octanoyl ester turned out to be essential for generating this activity. Ghrelin plays an important role in the short-time regulation of appetite and in the long-time regulation of energy balance and glucose homeostasis. A number of studies showed that ghrelin is also involved in the regulation of gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, and immune functions as well as in bone metabolism.Storage/Stability : Shipped at 4°C.
