STRESSCOPIN-RELATED PEPTIDE (HUMAN)

Uses

Stresscopin-related peptide (human) is a specific ligand for the type 2 CRH receptor. Stresscopin-related peptide (human) suppresses food intake, delayed gastric emptying and decreases heat-induced edema. Stresscopin-related peptide (human) maintains homeostasis after stress, and can be used in the research of stress-related diseases[1].
