Helospectin I
Helospectin I is a neuropeptide of the vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) family. Helospectin I has vasodilatory and antihypertensive activities, and decreases blood pressure. Helospectin I is originally isolated from the salivary gland venom of the lizard Heloderma suspectum.

Descripciòn
IC50 & Target
Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP)[1]
In Vitro
Helospectin I (suffusion at 0.1 nM, in bicarbonate buffer for 30 min) evokes significant, sustained and similar vasodilation in the intact hamster cheek pouch[1].
Helospectin I relaxes the Phenylephrine-contracted rat femoral arteries with pEC50 of 6.82[2].
Helospectin I (0.1 nM-1 μM) inhibits the binding of 125I-labeled VIP and 125I-secretin to dispersed chief cells[4].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only. .
In Vivo
Helospectin I (0.1-0.8 nmol /kg, i.v.) increases plasma levels of glucagon in mice[3].

-
Animal Model:SD rats[2]
-
Dosage:0.03, 0.3, 1, 2 nM/kg
-
Administration:100 μL of infusion at the left jugular vein, followed by washing the catheter with 100 μL saline.
-
Result:Reduced the blood pressure, but was less effective than vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) in the low dose range.
-
Animal Model:Mice[3]
-
Dosage:0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 0.8 nM /kg
-
Administration:Intravenous injection (i.v.)
-
Result:Markedly stimulated glucagon secretion, and had no direct action on insulin secretion.
