Description

Des-Acyl Ghrelin (Human) is a Des-Octanoylated Ghrelin product available in the Trifluoroacetate Salt form and as a 0.1mg vial. Ghrelin is a peptide horone which plays a role in regulating energy balance, stimulating appetite, nutrient sensing and meal initiation. It influences bodily functions through associating with growth hormone secretagogue receptors (GHS-R) through its unique N-octanoyl group which is linked to its serine 3 residue covalently. It wider functions are in the regulation of insulin resistance, diabetes and obesity. On top of this Ghrelin is also found to be involved with glucose homeostasis, energy homeostasis, cardio-protective effects, bone metabolism and is a potential target for cancer. Therefore it can be used to develop therapies for a whole spectrum of diseases. This molecule is used as a research tool for studying cell biology and pharmacology.
