The porcine neuropeptide Y (NPY), a 36-residue peptide amide, was synthesized by assembling six peptide fragments followed by thioanisole-mediated deprotection with trifluoromethanesulfonic acid in trifluoroacetic acid. beta-Cycloheptyl aspartate, Asp(OChp), was employed to suppress base-catalyzed succinimide formation. When administered to dogs, the purified peptide (10 micrograms/kg) caused prolonged increase of systemic arterial blood pressure and decreased pancreatic blood flow.

D007202 Indicators and Reagents Substances used for the detection, identification, analysis, etc. of chemical, biological, or pathologic processes or conditions. Indicators are substances that change in physical appearance, e.g., color, at or approaching the endpoint of a chemical titration, e.g., on the passage between acidity and alkalinity. Reagents are substances used for the detection or determination of another substance by chemical or microscopical means, especially analysis. Types of reagents are precipitants, solvents, oxidizers, reducers, fluxes, and colorimetric reagents.

D008297 Male Males
D009478 Neuropeptide Y A 36-amino acid peptide present in many organs and in many sympathetic noradrenergic neurons. It has vasoconstrictor and natriuretic activity and regulates local blood flow, glandular secretion, and smooth muscle activity. The peptide also stimulates feeding and drinking behavior and influences secretion of pituitary hormones.
