What is inthis collection.

Neuropeptide (nonapeptide)

DSIP(Delta sleep-inducing peptide)

Target: Not fully characterized

A nonapeptide (Trp-Ala-Gly-Gly-Asp-Ala-Ser-Gly-Glu) first isolated in 1977 from the cerebral venous blood of rabbits during induced sleep.

Studied in neuroscience research on sleep architecture, stress responses and neuroendocrine regulation. Its receptor has not been definitively identified.

Mitochondrial-derived peptide

MOTS-c(Mitochondrial open reading frame of the 12S rRNA type-c)

Target: AMPK signaling, metabolic homeostasis

A 16-amino-acid peptide encoded within the mitochondrial 12S rRNA gene, described in 2015 as a mitochondrial signal that acts on cellular metabolism.

Investigated in cell and rodent models of glucose metabolism, insulin sensitivity, exercise physiology and aging, often through AMPK activation.

Synthetic tuftsin analogue

Selank(Thr-Lys-Pro-Arg-Pro-Gly-Pro)

Target: GABAergic and monoamine signaling (proposed)

A synthetic heptapeptide built from the immunomodulatory tetrapeptide tuftsin with an added Pro-Gly-Pro sequence for greater stability.

Studied in neuroscience research on anxiety-related behavior, BDNF expression and immune-neural interaction, primarily in animal models.

Synthetic ACTH(4-10) analogue

Semax(Met-Glu-His-Phe-Pro-Gly-Pro)

Target: Neurotrophic signaling (BDNF), melanocortin system

A synthetic heptapeptide derived from the ACTH(4-10) fragment, stabilized with a C-terminal Pro-Gly-Pro sequence. It has no adrenocorticotropic hormone activity.

Investigated in neuroscience research on neuroprotection, ischemia models and neurotrophic factor expression.
