Reference sheet · Neuropeptides · CPC catalog code NEUP-105
Reference standards in the Neuropeptides class are typically shipped as lyophilized powder and stored desiccated at −20 °C protected from light. Once reconstituted in bacteriostatic water or the assay-appropriate buffer, aliquot and store at −80 °C to minimize freeze–thaw cycles. Confirm handling requirements against your institutional biosafety and radiation protocols before use.
Neuropeptide Y, human, Free Acid sits within the Neuropeptides research class (CPC reference NEUP-105). Neuropeptides bind GPCRs expressed on central and peripheral neurons — modulating cAMP, calcium, and β-arrestin signaling to shape neurotransmission, network excitability, and behavior. Investigators typically incorporate Neuropeptide Y, human, Free Acid as a reference standard, tool ligand, or substrate in the assay contexts listed above. Radioligand binding, cAMP HTRF, calcium mobilization, and in vivo behavior assays.
Neuropeptide Y, human, Free Acid (CPC catalog code NEUP-105) is a synthetic neuropeptide receptor ligand in the neuropeptides category. It is provided as a lyophilized ~1 mg vial for in-vitro research use only.
Published and internal research programs use Neuropeptide Y, human, Free Acid as a reference standard in neuropeptides workflows — for example, gpcr receptor-binding and functional profiling and behavioral pharmacology (rodent models). Human clinical evidence is not established.
No. Neuropeptide Y, human, Free Acid is a research-grade reference peptide and is not approved by the FDA or any national regulator for human or veterinary therapeutic use. It is offered exclusively for in-vitro laboratory research and does not ship to the United States for consumer use.
In a neuropeptides workflow, Neuropeptide Y, human, Free Acid is reconstituted in sterile buffer or DMSO (solubility-dependent) and applied in the researcher's chosen assay format. Radioligand binding, cAMP HTRF, calcium mobilization, and in vivo behavior assays.
Other reference standards in the same class — commonly cross-referenced during assay design and comparator selection.
