| Targets |
The primary target of Astressin 2B is the CRF2 receptor (corticotropin-releasing factor receptor 2). CRF2 is a G protein-coupled receptor that mediates the effects of corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) and related peptides. Astressin 2B is a potent and selective antagonist of CRF2, with an IC50 of 1.3 nM. It has low affinity for the CRF1 receptor (IC50 >500 nM), demonstrating high selectivity.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Astressin 2B is a potent and selective CRF2 antagonist with an IC50 of 1.3 nM for CRF2 and >500 nM for CRF1. It antagonizes CRF2-mediated inhibition of gastric emptying. The compound's high selectivity for CRF2 over CRF1 makes it a valuable tool for studying CRF2-specific functions. It is supplied as a peptide with a purity of >98% and is soluble in water at 1 mg/mL.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, Astressin 2B is used to study the physiological and pathological roles of CRF2. By antagonizing CRF2, it can modulate stress responses, anxiety, depression, and gastrointestinal function. It has been shown to antagonize CRF2-mediated inhibition of gastric emptying. Its efficacy would be assessed in animal models of stress-related disorders and gastrointestinal dysfunction.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro binding and functional assays for Astressin 2B are used to characterize its affinity for CRF2 and CRF1. Radioligand binding assays are performed using membranes from cells expressing CRF2 or CRF1, and the compound's ability to displace a labeled CRF ligand is measured. Functional assays measuring CRF2-mediated signaling (e.g., cAMP accumulation) are used to confirm antagonistic activity. The reported IC50 values are 1.3 nM for CRF2 and >500 nM for CRF1.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular assays for Astressin 2B involve treating CRF2-expressing cells with the compound and measuring inhibition of CRF-induced signaling. Readouts include inhibition of cAMP accumulation or other downstream signaling pathways. The compound's ability to block CRF2-mediated effects confirms its antagonistic activity.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo studies with Astressin 2B are performed in animal models to investigate CRF2 function. The compound is typically administered via injection. Its effects on stress responses, anxiety-like behavior, depression-like behavior, and gastrointestinal function are assessed. For example, its ability to antagonize CRF2-mediated inhibition of gastric emptying can be evaluated.
