Description

Hemopressin (Rat) is a synthetic peptide analog of the endogenous peptide hemopressin, specifically the rat isoform. This compound is a valuable research-grade biochemical tool for investigating the endocannabinoid system and its modulation of cardiovascular and metabolic functions. It is primarily utilized by pharmaceutical researchers, academic institutions, and contract research organizations (CROs) engaged in preclinical neuroscience and pharmacology studies.

Application

• Neuroscience Research: Used as a selective ligand to study the pharmacology and signaling pathways of the cannabinoid receptor type 1 (CB1R) and its novel peptide-binding sites.
• Cardiovascular Studies: Employed in preclinical models to investigate the role of the endocannabinoid system in blood pressure regulation and vascular tone.
• Metabolic Research: Applied in studies exploring the modulation of appetite, energy homeostasis, and glucose metabolism by peptide cannabinoids.
• Biochemical Assay Development: Serves as a reference standard or active component in the development of high-throughput screening (HTS) assays and binding studies.
• Signal Transduction Analysis: A tool for elucidating downstream effector mechanisms and cross-talk between cannabinoid and other receptor systems.
