Description

Galanin-Like Peptide (Rat) is a synthetic neuropeptide analog with the CAS Registry Number 245114-97-0. This compound is a critical research tool for investigating the galaninergic system, which is involved in a wide range of physiological processes including appetite regulation, nociception, and neuroendocrine function. It is primarily utilized by researchers and developers in the fields of neuroscience, endocrinology, and pharmaceutical discovery for receptor binding studies, functional assays, and as a reference standard.

Application

• Neuroscience Research: Used as a specific ligand in receptor binding assays and autoradiography to study the distribution and function of GALP receptors in the central nervous system.
• Endocrinology Studies: Applied in in vitro and in vivo models to investigate its role in food intake, energy homeostasis, and metabolic regulation.
• Signal Transduction Analysis: Employed to activate downstream signaling pathways (e.g., cAMP, calcium mobilization) in cell-based assays to characterize receptor pharmacology.
• Pharmaceutical Development: Serves as a key reference standard and pharmacological tool in the discovery and validation of novel therapeutics targeting metabolic and neurological disorders.
• Antibody Production & Immunoassays: Acts as an immunogen for generating specific antibodies or as a calibrator in ELISA and RIA development for quantifying endogenous GALP levels.
