- Receptor-binding and functional selectivity studies
- Second-messenger (cAMP / IP₁) profiling
- Hypothalamic–pituitary axis feedback modeling
- Metabolic and glucose-homeostasis research
Mechanism of action
Gastrin Releasing Peptide, porcine sits within the Endocrine research class (CPC reference GAST-004). Endocrine peptides bind class A/B GPCRs and RTKs on hormone-responsive tissues, triggering canonical cAMP, IP₃/Ca²⁺, and MAPK pathways that regulate secretion, growth, and metabolism. Investigators typically incorporate Gastrin Releasing Peptide, porcine as a reference standard, tool ligand, or substrate in the assay contexts listed above. HTRF cAMP, calcium mobilization (FLIPR), and radioligand binding are the standard readouts.
Frequently asked questions
What is Gastrin Releasing Peptide, porcine?
Gastrin Releasing Peptide, porcine (CPC catalog code GAST-004) is a synthetic endocrine research peptide in the endocrine category. It is provided as a lyophilized ~1 mg vial for in-vitro research use only.
What is Gastrin Releasing Peptide, porcine studied for?
Published and internal research programs use Gastrin Releasing Peptide, porcine as a reference standard in endocrine workflows — for example, receptor-binding and functional selectivity studies and second-messenger (camp / ip₁) profiling. Human clinical evidence is not established.
Is Gastrin Releasing Peptide, porcine FDA-approved for human use?
No. Gastrin Releasing Peptide, porcine 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.
How is Gastrin Releasing Peptide, porcine typically used in the lab?
In a endocrine workflow, Gastrin Releasing Peptide, porcine is reconstituted in sterile buffer or DMSO (solubility-dependent) and applied in the researcher's chosen assay format. HTRF cAMP, calcium mobilization (FLIPR), and radioligand binding are the standard readouts.
How should Gastrin Releasing Peptide, porcine be stored?
Store lyophilized at −20 °C, protected from light. Reconstitute in sterile 0.1% BSA/PBS. Follow your institution's standard operating procedures for handling synthetic peptides.
Where does the Gastrin Releasing Peptide, porcine product page point to?
This kindr reference page mirrors CPC Scientific's catalog metadata for GAST-004. The upstream reference sheet — including sequence, purity, MW, and application notes where published — is linked from the buy panel. All orders placed on kindr Peptides ship internationally under research-use terms only.
What quality specifications apply to Gastrin Releasing Peptide, porcine?
Research-grade peptides in the CPC catalog are synthesized by solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS), purified by preparative RP-HPLC, and characterized by analytical HPLC and mass spectrometry. Typical purity is ≥95%; certificate of analysis is available on request.
