LEAP-2
0 ImagesSynonyms: Human liver expressed antimicrobial peptide-2LEAP-2 (Human liver expressed antimicrobial peptide-2) is a GHS-R1a antagonist, with an IC50 of 6.0 nM. LEAP-2 suppresses the orexigenic effect of ghrelin. LEAP-2 attenuates ghrelin-induced growth hormone (GH) release and reduces basal food intake. LEAP-2 exhibits antimicrobial activity against microbial model organisms. LEAP-2 can be used for the study of obesity and infection.

Cortistatin-8
0 ImagesSynonyms: PCFWKTCKCortistatin-8 (CST-8; PCFWKTCK), a neuropeptide, is a GHS-R1a antagonist by counteracting the response of ghrelin on gastric acid secretion. Cortistatin-8 can modulate GH release from somatotroph cells. Cortistatin-8 is a synthetic CST-analogue devoid of any binding affinity to SST-R but capable to bind the GHS-R1a. Cortistatin-8 can exert antagonistic effects on ghrelin actions either in vitro or in vivo in animals.
