ln Vitro |
Astressin binds to cloned pituitary receptors with a high affinity (Ki=2 nM) and a low affinity for CRF binding proteins. Astressin has a strong ability to inhibit ACTH secretion and demonstrates a high affinity for cloned human CRF-RA1 that is stable expressed in CHO cells [1].

ln Vivo |
In stressed or adrenalectomy rats, astressin is more effective than any other antagonist that has been studied in the past at lowering pituitary adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) output. Low dosages of astressin injected intravenously (30 μg and 100 μg/kg) nevertheless significantly decreased ACTH levels at 45 and 90 minutes, respectively [1]. Astressin cannot stop the effects of r/hCRF-induced locomotor activity in a familiar setting, but it can considerably reverse the anxiety-like reactions brought on by social stress and ICV rat/human CRF (r/hCRF) on the elevated plus maze [2]. A higher degree of protection than that seen with other CRF antagonists in other models of necrotizing neuronal injury was observed when the peptide was infused intracerebroventricularly 30 minutes prior to and 10 minutes following the start of seizures, reducing damage to specific hippocampal cell regions by 84%. As short as 10 minutes after exposure to excitotoxins, astressin begins to have protective effects [3].

Additional Infomation |
Astressin is a 30-membered homodetic cyclic peptide comprising the sequence D-Phe-His-Leu-Leu-Arg-Glu-Val-Leu-Glu-Nle-Ala-Arg-Ala-Glu-Gln-Leu-Ala-Gln-Glu-Ala-His-Lys-Asn-Arg-Lys-Leu-Nle-Glu-Ile-Ile-NH2 cyclised by an amide bridge, formed by condensation of the side-chain carboxy group of the Glu residue at position 19 and the side-chain amino group of the Lys residue at position 22. It has a role as a corticotropin-releasing factor receptor antagonist and a neuroprotective agent. It is a homodetic cyclic peptide and a polypeptide.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
