Biological Activity
NPBW1, NPBW2[1]
Neuropeptide W-23 (human) (NPW-23) increases the ICa,L in transfected human embryonic kidney 293 cells and VSMCs via GPR7[1].
Neuropeptide W-23 (human) increases the expression of pan phospho-PKC, intracellular diacylglycerol level, and the second messenger catalyzed by PLC[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Neuropeptide W-23 (human) (NPW-23) (2-8 nM; i.c.v.; 10 μL) shows anorexigenic effect in rats[3].
