| Targets |
GPR39 (G protein-coupled receptor 39). Rat obestatin shows high affinity binding to GPR39 expressing cells (Kd ≈ 1 nM).
Obestatin is an endogenous ligand of the G-protein coupled receptor 39 (GPR39). It binds to GPR39 with high affinity (Kd ≈ 1 nM). GPR39 is an orphan GPCR that is encoded by the ghrelin gene and is involved in the regulation of appetite, gastrointestinal motility, and energy homeostasis. |
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Obestatin antagonizes ghrelin-induced contraction in isolated jejunum muscle strips, effectively blocking the stimulatory effect of ghrelin on gastrointestinal motility. It also shows activity in cell-based assays such as stimulating cAMP production in GPR39-expressing cells.
In vitro, obestatin antagonizes ghrelin-induced contraction in isolated jejunum muscle strips, effectively blocking the stimulatory effect of ghrelin on gastrointestinal motility. It stimulates cAMP production in CHO and HEK293 cells overexpressing human GPR39. The peptide also exhibits anti-inflammatory, anti-myocardial infarction, and antioxidant activities. |
| ln Vivo |
In animal models, obestatin suppresses food intake in a dose-dependent manner, reduces body weight gain, and inhibits jejunal contraction and gastric emptying. These effects are contrary to the appetite-stimulating effects of ghrelin.
In vivo, obestatin suppresses food intake in a dose-dependent manner, reduces body weight gain, and inhibits jejunal contraction and gastric emptying in rodent models. These effects are contrary to the appetite-stimulating effects of ghrelin. The peptide is typically administered via intraperitoneal (IP) injection in doses ranging from 12.5 to 1000 nmol/kg. |
| Enzyme Assay |
The binding affinity of Obestatin(rat) to GPR39 is determined via radioligand binding assays. Membranes from cells overexpressing GPR39 are incubated with iodinated obestatin and varying concentrations of unlabeled peptide, allowing calculation of the dissociation constant (Kd ≈ 1 nM).
Receptor binding assays for obestatin utilize radioligand binding with membranes from cells overexpressing GPR39. Membranes are incubated with iodinated obestatin and varying concentrations of unlabeled peptide, allowing calculation of the dissociation constant (Kd ≈ 1 nM). |
| Cell Assay |
The functional activity of obestatin is often measured using cAMP accumulation assays in CHO or HEK293 cell lines stably or transiently expressing the human GPR39 receptor. Cells are stimulated with the peptide, and the resulting intracellular cAMP levels are quantified to confirm receptor activation.

| Animal Protocol |
The peptide is typically administered via intraperitoneal (IP) injection in rodent models to study its effects on feeding behavior. Doses in the range of 12.5-1000 nmol/kg are commonly used to suppress food intake. For specific studies, it is dissolved in sterile saline for injection.

| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Obestatin is a peptide that is rapidly degraded in vivo. It is derived from the preproghrelin protein and is found in the stomach. It is susceptible to proteolytic cleavage by enzymes in the serum and gastrointestinal tract, which contributes to its short half-life in circulation.
