Human Neuromedin U-25 Trifluoroacetate
Supplier: BACHEM AMERICAS INC
Neuromedin U is a neuropeptide which is widely distributed in the gut and central nervous system. Initially isolated from porcine spinal cord it was named for its uterine contractile activity. In fasted rats neuromedin U expression in certain brain areas is lower than in fed rats. In animal studies with neuromedin-23 (rat) overnight food intake is significantly reduced indicating that neuromedin U may be a physiological regulator of food intake. IC₅₀ values for the binding of neuromedin U-25 (human) to the human neuromedin U receptors NMU1R and NMU2R are 2.7 nM and 1.8 nM, respectively.
