Description

Asperlicin C is a potent, non-peptidal cholecystokinin (CCK) antagonist derived from fungal fermentation. This compound is of significant interest for its selective binding affinity to CCK receptors, making it a valuable biochemical tool and a lead structure in pharmaceutical research. It is primarily utilized by research institutions and pharmaceutical companies engaged in neuroscience, gastrointestinal research, and drug discovery programs targeting receptor-mediated pathways.

Application

• Biochemical Research: As a selective cholecystokinin (CCK) antagonist for studying receptor binding, signal transduction, and neuropeptide function in vitro.
• Neuroscience Studies: Investigation of CCK's role in anxiety, satiety, pain perception, and dopamine-mediated behaviors.
• Lead Compound in Drug Discovery: Serving as a structural template for the development of novel therapeutic agents targeting CCK-A and CCK-B receptors.
• Gastrointestinal Research: Used in studies exploring CCK's effects on pancreatic secretion, gallbladder contraction, and gut motility.
• Reference Standard: Employed as a high-purity analytical standard in method development and quality control for related compounds.
