What PACAP (1-38), human, ovine, rat is studied for

  • Receptor-binding and functional selectivity studies
  • Second-messenger (cAMP / IP₁) profiling
  • Hypothalamic–pituitary axis feedback modeling
  • Metabolic and glucose-homeostasis research

Mechanism of action

PACAP (1-38), human, ovine, rat sits within the Endocrine research class (CPC reference PACA-002). 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 PACAP (1-38), human, ovine, rat 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 PACAP (1-38), human, ovine, rat?

PACAP (1-38), human, ovine, rat (CPC catalog code PACA-002) 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 PACAP (1-38), human, ovine, rat studied for?

Published and internal research programs use PACAP (1-38), human, ovine, rat 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 PACAP (1-38), human, ovine, rat FDA-approved for human use?

No. PACAP (1-38), human, ovine, rat 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 PACAP (1-38), human, ovine, rat typically used in the lab?

In a endocrine workflow, PACAP (1-38), human, ovine, rat 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 PACAP (1-38), human, ovine, rat 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.
