Description

Argipressin, 1-(β-Mercapto-Beta,β-Diethylpropionic Acid) is a synthetic analogue of the endogenous neurohypophyseal hormone vasopressin. This compound is of significant value for its potent and selective pharmacological activity, primarily as a vasoconstrictor and antidiuretic agent. It is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sectors, particularly for developing diagnostic tools, reference standards, and advanced therapeutic peptides.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Reference Standard: Used for the calibration and validation of analytical methods (HPLC, MS) in quality control laboratories.
• Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) Intermediate: Serves as a critical building block in the synthesis of vasopressin receptor agonists and related peptide therapeutics.
• Biochemical Research: Employed in in vitro and ex vivo studies to investigate vasopressin receptor (V1a, V2) signaling pathways and physiological responses.
• Diagnostic Agent Development: Utilized in the formulation of diagnostic tests for disorders related to water balance and blood pressure regulation.
• Peptide Chemistry Studies: Acts as a model compound for studying disulfide bridge formation, peptide stability, and structure-activity relationships (SAR).
