| | FMRF amide Usage And Synthesis |
| Uses | Phe-Met-Arg-Phe, amide acetate dose dependently (ED50=23 nM) activates a K+ current in the peptidergic caudodorsal neurons[1]. | | in vivo | Phe-Met-Arg-Phe, amide (FMRFamide) acetate stimulates growth hormone secretion in conscious OVX rats. The presence of Phe-Met-Arg-Phe, amide-like immunoreactivity in neuronal elements in the hypothalamus suggested a role for this in the hypothalamic control of the anterior pituitary function. The injection of 200 ng (313.8 pM) of FMRFamide (in 2 uL) produces a significantly increased plasma GH 15 min after injection. The GH-increasing effect of 400-800 ng (627-1255 pM) of FMRFamide is already developed after 5 min and lasted up to 30 min[3]. | | References | [1] Kits KS, et al.
