Description

Obestatin (Rat) CAS NO 869705-22-6 is a bioactive peptide hormone derived from the rat preproghrelin gene, playing a significant role in metabolic regulation. This high-purity peptide is essential for researchers investigating appetite control, energy homeostasis, and gastrointestinal function. It is primarily utilized by pharmaceutical R&D teams, academic research institutions, and biotechnology companies focused on endocrinology and metabolic disease studies.

Application

• Biomedical Research: Fundamental studies on the physiological role of obestatin in rodent models, including its effects on food intake, body weight, and gastric motility.
• Metabolic Pathway Analysis: Investigation of signaling pathways involving GPR39 receptor activation and interactions with other gut hormones like ghrelin.
• Drug Discovery & Development: Serving as a reference standard or active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in preclinical studies for potential therapeutics targeting obesity and diabetes.
• In Vitro Assay Development: Use in cell-based assays (e.g., receptor binding, cAMP accumulation) to screen for agonists or antagonists.
• Antibody Production & Immunoassays: Acting as an immunogen for antibody generation or as a calibrator/standard in ELISA and RIA kits for quantitative analysis.
• Academic & Clinical Studies: Supporting university-led research and potential clinical investigations into metabolic disorders.
