Kentsin
Kentsin (Thr-Pro-Arg-Lys), a contraceptive tetrapeptide, is originally extracted from hamster embryos. Kentsin prevents the maturation of Graafian follicles and consequently inhibits ovulation, without binding to opioid receptors. Kentsin has opiate properties on gastrointestinal motility.

生物活性
Kentsin (100 μg/mL, 18 h) increases endogenous xenotropic virus expression in K-Balb 19a/h cells transformed with Kirsten sarcoma virus[2].
Kentsin (30 μM) does not inhibit electrically stimulated contractions of the guinea pig ileum (GPI) or mouse vas deferens (MVD)[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Kentsin (20 and 100 ng/kg, i.c.v.) inhibits the antral motility index and disrupts the jejunal migrating motor complex in fasted dogs[3].
Kentsin (4.0 μg/kg, i.c.v. 2 hours after the beginning of a meal) restores the "fasted” (the migrating myoelectric complex of intestinal motility), and can be blocked by previous Naloxone (400 μg/kg, i.c.v.)[4].
