galanin , human acetate

Galanin (Human) (Acetate) is a 30-amino acid neuropeptide and galanin (GAL) receptor agonist.It inhibits forskolin-induced cAMP production in HEK293E cells expressing recombinant human GAL1 receptors (EC50= 0.031 nM) and stimulates inositol phosphate accumulation in CHO cells expressing recombinant human GAL2receptors (EC50= 12.3 nM).Human galanin induces contractions in isolated rat longitudinal fundus strips with an EC50value of 13.8 nM.Intrathecal administration of human galanin (3, 10, and 30 nmol/animal) reduces paw licking and flinching in the second, but not first, phase of the formalin test in rats.

Galanin (1-30), human acetate (Galanin ) is a 30-amino acid neuropeptide. Galanin (1-30), human acetate acts as an agonist of GalR1 and GalR2 receptors, with Kis of both 1 nM.
