Description

Exorphins CAS NO 69989-30-6 are a class of exogenous opioid peptides, primarily derived from food proteins, that exhibit morphine-like activity by interacting with opioid receptors. These compounds are of significant interest for research into their physiological effects on pain perception, appetite regulation, and gastrointestinal function. They are essential for biochemical research, pharmaceutical development, and nutraceutical studies, particularly for scientists investigating the gut-brain axis, food-derived bioactive peptides, and novel analgesic pathways.

Application

• Biomedical Research: Used as reference standards and active agents in studies of opioid receptor binding, signal transduction, and neuropharmacology.
• Pharmaceutical Development: Serves as a lead compound or biochemical tool for developing novel analgesic drugs or modulators of appetite and digestion.
• Nutritional Science: Investigated for their role as food-derived bioactive peptides, studying their impact on satiety, mood, and metabolic health.
• Neuroscience: Critical for exploring the gut-brain axis, understanding how dietary components influence central nervous system function and behavior.
• Analytical Standard: Employed as a high-purity standard in HPLC, LC-MS, and other analytical methods for the quantification of opioid peptides in complex matrices.
