Description

Ranatensin CAS NO 29451-71-6 is a synthetic peptide analog of the natural hormone bombesin. This compound is of significant interest in biochemical and pharmacological research due to its potent biological activity. It serves as a critical tool for scientists investigating receptor binding, signal transduction pathways, and the development of targeted diagnostic or therapeutic agents. Primary users include research institutions, pharmaceutical R&D departments, and biotechnology companies engaged in neuroendocrine and oncology studies.

Application

• Biochemical Research: Used as a reference standard and active agent in studies of bombesin receptor subtypes (BB1, BB2, BB3).
• Pharmacological Studies: Employed in vitro and in vivo to investigate the physiological effects of bombesin-like peptides, including their role in smooth muscle contraction and hormone secretion.
• Drug Discovery: Acts as a lead compound or a molecular probe in the development of novel receptor agonists or antagonists for therapeutic applications.
• Diagnostic Development: Utilized in the research and development of imaging agents for targeting tumors that overexpress bombesin receptors.
• Cell Signaling Research: Applied in assays to study G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) activation and downstream intracellular signaling cascades.
• Academic Research: Serves as a key reagent in university and institutional labs for fundamental studies in neuroendocrinology and peptide biology.

Quality Control

Our Ranatensin is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity verification and mass spectrometry for identity confirmation. We provide full traceability and detailed Certificates of Analysis (COA) with every shipment, ensuring the material meets the stringent requirements for research and development applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below in a dry environment. This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive). Allow the vial to reach room temperature in a desiccator before opening to prevent condensation and moisture uptake. For long-term storage, keep desiccated.
