| Description | Mca-SEVNLDAEFK(Dnp)-NH2 contains a highly fluorescent 7-methoxycoumarin group that is efficiently quenched by resonance energy transfer to the 2,4-dinitrophenyl group. It can be used to measure the activities of peptidases that are capable of cleaving an amide bond between the fluorescent group and Mca-SEVNLDAEFK(Dnp)-NH2 contains a highly fluorescent 7-methoxycoumarin group that is efficiently quenched by resonance energy transfer to the 2,4-dinitrophenyl group. It can be used to measure the activities of peptidases that are capable of cleaving an amide bond between the fluorescent group and the quencher group, causing an increase in fluorescence, such as can be used to measure the activity of BACE-1[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 | GLP-2(rat) is an intestinal growth factor. GLP-2(rat) stimulates cell proliferation and inhibits apoptosis. GLP-2(rat) enhances mucosal mass and function in residual small intestine after massive small bowel resection (MSBR)[1][2] | Palmitoyl tetrapeptide-20 (PTP20) is a biomimetic peptide agonist of α-MSH. Palmitoyl tetrapeptide-20 promotes hair pigmentation and delays hair graying by activating the MC1-R pathway (AC50: 0.16 nM), enhancing catalase activity to reduce H2O2 accumulation, and upregulating SIRT1 activity. Palmitoyl tetrapeptide-20 (PTP20) is a biomimetic peptide agonist of α-MSH. Palmitoyl tetrapeptide-20 promotes hair pigmentation and delays hair graying by activating the MC1-R pathway (AC50: 0.16 nM), enhancing catalase activity to reduce H2O2 accumulation, and upregulating SIRT1 activity. Palmitoyl tetrapeptide-20 can be used in research on preventing hair loss and improving hair graying[1]...

Psalmotoxin 1 is a potent and slective ASIC1a inhibitor (IC50: 0.9 nM) by increasing the apparent affinity for H+ of ASIC1a. Psalmotoxin 1 can induce cell apoptosis, also Psalmotoxin 1 (PcTx1) is a protein toxin that can bind at subunit-subunit interfaces of acid-sensing ion channel 1a (ASIC1a). Psalmotoxin 1 is a potent and slective ASIC1a inhibitor (IC50: 0.9 nM) by increasing the apparent affinity for H+ of ASIC1a. Psalmotoxin 1 can induce cell apoptosis, also inhibits cell migration, proferliration and invasion of cancer cells. Psalmotoxin 1 can be used in the research of cancers, or neurological disease[1][3][4][6]... Read More |
