PACAP (1-27), amide, human, ovine, rat – 0.5 mg

Overview

PACAP (1-27), amide, human, ovine, rat is a neuropeptide that plays a significant role in the central nervous system. Initially isolated from the bovine hypothalamus, PACAP-27 is also present in humans and rats, reflecting its biological importance across species. This peptide is known for its remarkable similarity to Vasoactive Intestinal Polypeptide (VIP), though it is much more effective at stimulating adenylate cyclase. With its ability to enhance cAMP accumulation and elevate intracellular calcium levels through type I PACAP receptors, PACAP-27 is essential for various physiological responses.

Key Features

• Contributes to cAMP accumulation
• Increases intracellular calcium levels
• Highly similar to VIP, with greater potency
• Available in a convenient 0.5 mg format
• Suitable for research in neurobiology and physiology
