Product Description
PACAP-38 (31-38), human, mouse, rat TFA is a PAC1 receptor agonist/activator. PACAP-38 (31-38), human, mouse, rat TFA increases alpha-secretase activity. PACAP-38 (31-38), human, mouse, rat increases cytoplasmic Ca2+, increases the proliferation and phosphorylation of extracellular regulated kinase (ERK) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). PACAP-38 (31-38), human, mouse, rat TFA has a potent and sustained stimulating effect on sympathetic nerve NPY and catecholamine production. PACAP-38 (31-38), human, mouse, rat TFA may be utilized in neurotrophic and neuro-protection research.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
PACAP-38(31–38), human, mouse, and rat TFA (100 nM; 2 min; NCI-H838 cells) tyrosine phosphorylates EGFR, HER2, and ERK[1]. Inducing EGFR tyrosine phosphorylation with PACAP-38(31–38), human, mouse, and rat TFA (100 nM; 30 min; NCI-H838 cells) raises ROS levels by 51%[1]. NCI-H838 cell growth is stimulated by TFA (10 nM; 48 h) in human, mouse, and rat PACAP-38(31–38)[1]. Human, mouse, and rat TFA (300 nM; 4 h) together with PACAP-38(31–38) increases the production of APPsα in brain cells[2]. Through cAMP accumulation and an increase in cytosolic free calcium, PACAP-38(31–38), human, mouse, and rat TFA(0.01–10 nM; HEK 293 cells) stimulates neural cells express endogenous PAC1 receptors. It also induces elevation of the intracellular Ca2+ concentration in a dose-dependent manner with an EC50 value of 0.81 nM[2]. PACAP-38(31–38), human, mouse, and rat TFA (0.01 nM; 48 h) stimulates NPY release from SCG neuronal cells in a strong and effective manner[3]. Human, mouse, and rat TFA (100 nM; 14 d) along with PACAP-38(31–38) generates prolonged activated NPY and catecholamine secretionmpathetic neurons[3].

*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.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box

Molecular Weight Calculator allows you to calculate the molar mass and elemental composition of a compound, as detailed below:

Note: Chemical formula is case sensitive: C12H18N3O4  c12h18n3o4
Instructions to calculate molar mass (molecular weight) of a chemical compound:
  • To calculate molar mass of a chemical compound, please enter the chemical/molecular formula and click the “Calculate’ button.
Definitions of molecular mass, molecular weight, molar mass and molar weight:
  • Molecular mass (or molecular weight) is the mass of one molecule of a substance and is expressed in the unified atomic mass units (u). (1 u is equal to 1/12 the mass of one atom of carbon-12)
  • Molar mass (molar weight) is the mass of one mole of a substance and is expressed in g/mol.
