Description

Galanin (2-11) Porcine, Rat is a specific bioactive peptide fragment derived from the galanin neuropeptide family. This compound is a critical research tool for studying the role of galanin in central and peripheral nervous system signaling, appetite regulation, and nociception. It is primarily utilized by pharmaceutical R&D teams, academic research institutions, and biotechnology companies focused on neuroscience, metabolic disorders, and pain management research.

Application

• Neuroscience Research: Used as a receptor ligand and antagonist in studies of galanin receptor subtypes (GalR1, GalR2, GalR3) to elucidate their function in neuronal communication and behavior.
• Metabolic Disorder Studies: Applied in preclinical research to investigate the role of galanin in feeding behavior, insulin secretion, and energy homeostasis.
• Pain and Nociception Research: Employed in models to study the modulation of pain pathways and the development of novel analgesic targets.
• Biochemical Assay Development: Serves as a standard or reference compound in the development and validation of immunoassays (ELISA, RIA) and receptor binding assays.
• Cell Signaling Pathways: Used to stimulate or inhibit intracellular signaling cascades (e.g., cAMP, MAPK) in cell culture experiments to map galanin-mediated effects.
• Drug Discovery Screening: Acts as a key pharmacological tool in high-throughput screening (HTS) campaigns to identify new modulators of the galanin system.
