Cayman Cortistatin-14 (Trifluoroacetate Salt); Purity- Greater Th
Product Description
Cortistatin-14 is an endogenous neuropeptide agonist of somatostatin receptors (IC50s = 0.5-18.2 nM for human SST1-SST5 receptors expressed in CCL39 cells)., It is expressed in GABAergic interneurons in the cortex and hippocampus., Cortistatin-14 competitively inhibits hexarelin binding to human growth hormone secretagogue receptors (GHS-R) in pituitary membranes (Ki = 0.54 μM). It also activates the human Mas-related gene receptor MrgX2 expressed in HEK293 cells leading to quantifiable GTP-γS binding to the G protein subunit Gαο (EC50 = 1.3 μM). Cortistatin-14 (0.01-1 μM), similarly to somatostatin-14 (Item No. ), completely inhibits thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH; Item No. ), and partially inhibits vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP; Item No. ), stimulation of cAMP production in GH4 cells. In mice, cortistatin-14 dose-dependently (0.05-5 μg, i.c.v.) impairs memory retention when administered after foot shock avoidance training. Cortistatin-14 (40-320 μg/kg, s.c.) dose-dependently reduces growth hormone secretion in rats by greater than 80% after 10 minutes when administered at doses of 40-320 µg/kg.
