| Description | Ala-parafluoroPhe-Arg-Cha-Cit-Tyr-NH2 TFA, a bioactive peptide, is a selective Protease activating receptor 1 (PAR-1) agonist over PAR-2. PAR-1 belongs to a subfamily of G-protein coupled receptors and is known to mediate the cellular effects of thrombin. In addition to its varied cellular effects Ala-parafluoroPhe-Arg-Cha-Cit-Tyr-NH2 TFA, a bioactive peptide, is a selective Protease activating receptor 1 (PAR-1) agonist over PAR-2. PAR-1 belongs to a subfamily of G-protein coupled receptors and is known to mediate the cellular effects of thrombin. In addition to its varied cellular effects of thrombin, PAR-1 has also been shown to coordinate with PAR-4 and regulate thrombin-induced hepatocellular carcinoma harboring thrombin formation within the tumor environment classified as 'coagulation type'[1]...

GIP (mouse) promotes insulin secretion from pancreatic β cells via the G-protein-coupled GIP receptor (GIPR). GIP (GIP (Gastric inhibitory polypeptide) (mouse) is a gastrointestinal hormone that is secreted by the intestinal K cells, and also expressed in and secreted from pancreatic islets. GIP (mouse) promotes insulin secretion from pancreatic β cells via the G-protein-coupled GIP receptor (GIPR). GIP (mouse) promotes pancreatic β cell proliferation and inhibits apoptosis. GIP (mouse) also exerts direct lipogenic effects on adipose tissue[1][2][3]... Read More | IDR-1 is an antimicrobial peptide that is active against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. IDR-1 counters infection by selective modulation of innate immunity without obvious toxicities. IDR-1 has anti-inflammatory and anti-infective properties, enhances the levels of monocyte chemokines, IDR-1 is an antimicrobial peptide that is active against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. IDR-1 counters infection by selective modulation of innate immunity without obvious toxicities. IDR-1 has anti-inflammatory and anti-infective properties, enhances the levels of monocyte chemokines, and attenuates pro-inflammatory cytokine release[1][2]...
