Ghrelin is a peptide hormone that regulates appetite and has been shown to have potent anti-cachectic effects in animal models. It is thought to be an important regulator of body weight, insulin resistance, and metabolism. Ghrelin is synthesized in the stomach and released into the bloodstream when the stomach is empty. Ghrelin binds to ghrelin receptors in the hypothalamus, which stimulate growth hormone release from the pituitary gland. This hormone also binds to other cells in the hypothalamus, such as neurons that produce orexin, which may account for its effects on sleep patterns. Ghrelin has been shown to inhibit tumor growth by suppressing angiogenesis and inducing apoptosis. The molecular weight of ghrelin is 3497 Da. The sequence of ghrelin consists of 28 amino acids: Gly-Ser-Ser(octanoyl)-Phe-Leu-Ser-Pro-Glu-His-Gln-Lys-Ala
