Biological Activity
pEC50: 11.46 (human CRF1, CHO cells), 9.36 (human CRF2, CHO cells), 9.85 (rat CRF2α, CHO cells)[1]
Ki: 0.4 nM (hCRF1, cell assay), 1.8 nM (rCRF2α, cell assay), and 5.7 nM (mCRF2β, cell assay)[2]
Urotensin I is 2-3 times more potent than CRF or sauvagine in stimulating ACTH release from a superfused goldfish anterior pituitary cell column[3].
Rat tail artery strips were incubated in the presence of 4 x 10(-3) M theophylline and Urotensin I (UI). At the concentrations of 1.50, 7.50 mU/ml but not of 0.75 mU/ml Urotensin I, the content of cAMP increased significantly[4].
