Cortistatin 14 (mouse, rat) CAS NO. 186901-48-4

Cortistatin 14 (mouse, rat) (CAS NO. 186901-48-4) is a synthetic 14-amino acid neuropeptide that is structurally and functionally related to somatostatin-14. It is predominantly expressed in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus. This peptide binds with high affinity to all five somatostatin receptor subtypes (sst1-5) and, uniquely, also exhibits affinity for the ghrelin receptor (GHS-R1a). It is a key research tool for investigating neural functions, sleep regulation, and immune responses, with specific applications in rodent models.

1.MECHANISM OF ACTION

  • Somatostatin Receptor (sst) Activation: Like somatostatin, it binds to and activates sst1-5 receptors, which are coupled to Gi/o proteins. This leads to inhibition of adenylyl cyclase, reduced cAMP levels, and modulation of calcium and potassium channels. This pathway mediates effects such as neuronal inhibition and reduced hormone secretion.
  • Ghrelin Receptor (GHS-R1a) Interaction: A defining feature of cortistatin is its ability to bind to and act as an agonist or modulator at the GHS-R1a receptor. This interaction is implicated in its specific effects on sleep regulation, locomotor activity, and appetite, differentiating it from somatostatin.
  • Immunomodulation: It has potent anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects on T-cells and macrophages, which are relevant to autoimmune disease and inflammation research.

  • 2.PRODUCT INDICATIONS

  • Neuroscience Research: Studying its role in sleep-wake cycles, cortical excitability, locomotor activity, and neuroprotection in rodent models.
  • Immune System Modulation: Investigating its potent anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects on T-cells and macrophages in models of autoimmune disease and inflammation.
  • Endocrine Research: Exploring its effects on growth hormone release and other pituitary functions, often in comparison to somatostatin.
  • Receptor Specificity Studies: Used to differentiate the roles of somatostatin receptors versus the ghrelin receptor in various physiological processes.

  • 3.CLINICAL EFFICACY OF PRODUCT

  • Target Validation: Studies with Cortistatin 14 have highlighted its unique anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties, suggesting that cortistatin-based therapies or GHS-R1a modulators could be developed for conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, and neurodegenerative diseases.
  • Biomarker Potential: Its expression patterns are being investigated as potential biomarkers for certain neurological and inflammatory disorders.
  • Drug Discovery: It serves as the key reference compound for screening and developing novel, selective agonists or antagonists for the cortistatin/ghrelin receptor pathways in preclinical rodent models.
