Description

Neuropeptide W-30 (Human) is a bioactive 30-amino acid peptide that functions as an endogenous ligand for the GPR7 and GPR8 receptors. This compound is of significant interest for its role in regulating energy homeostasis, stress responses, and neuroendocrine functions. It is primarily utilized by researchers and developers in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sectors for advanced neuroscience research, drug discovery, and the development of diagnostic assays.

Application

• Neuroscience Research: Used as a critical tool to study the central regulation of feeding behavior, energy balance, and stress-related pathways.
• Drug Discovery & Development: Serves as a reference standard and active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in screening programs targeting GPR7/GPR8 for metabolic and neurological disorders.
• Biochemical Assay Development: Employed in the development and validation of immunoassays (ELISA, RIA) and receptor binding studies.
• Academic & Institutional Research: Provides a high-purity reagent for investigating peptide signaling mechanisms in vitro and in vivo.
• Preclinical Studies: Utilized in animal model research to explore therapeutic potential for obesity, anxiety, and related conditions.
