xenopsin

Xenopsin (Xenopsin(2TFA))(2TFA) is a neurotensin-like octapeptide previously isolated from amphibian skin.

Xenopsin(2TFA) is a neurotensin-like octapeptide previously isolated from amphibian skin.

Xenopsin precursor fragment, an antimicrobial peptide, exhibits both antibacterial antifungal activity at concentrations ranging from 10 to 500 μg mL and anti-protozoal activity with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 2 to 20 μg mL [1].

Xenopsin-Related Peptide 2 (XP-2), an avian analog of amphibian Xenopsin, exhibits efficacy in histamine release from isolated rat mast cells comparable to synthetic Bradykinin [1].

Xenopsin TFA is a neurotensin-like octapeptide derived from the skin of xenopus xenopus.Xenopsin TFA is an inhibitor of tetrachloroside to stimulate gastric acid secretion.

Xenin-8 TFA, a biologically active C-terminal octapeptide derived from the 25-amino acid peptide Xenin of the neurotensin xenopsin family, enhances basal insulin secretion and amplifies glucose-stimulated insulin release in a dose-dependent manner (EC50=0.16 nM) [1].

Xenin is a 25 amino acid peptide that has been identified in human gastric mucosa in the search for a counterpart to the amphibian octapeptide xenopsin.

Xenin 8 acetate is a biologically active fragment of Xenin in the neurotensin xenopsin family. Xenin 8 acetate augments Arginine-induced insulin release (by 40%) and potentiates the glucagon responses to both Arginine (by 60%), Carbachol (by 50%).
