Product Information

• Name: [D-Arg1,D-Phe5,D-Trp7,9,Leu11]-Substance P
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Substance P is a neuropeptide that belongs to the Feeding Regulatory Peptides family. It is synthesized in the hypothalamus and secreted by neurons in the spinal cord, brainstem, and gut. Substance P has been shown to regulate feeding behavior through its interaction with opioid receptors and the release of other neurotransmitters. The synthetic form of this peptide has been shown to reduce body fat in animal models and increased sensitivity to insulin in diabetic patients. This peptide also reduces camp levels in rats, which may be due to its ability to stimulate secretion of camp from pancreatic cells.
