    Product Description

    Neuromedin B (NMB) is a peptide agonist of the NMB receptor (Ki = 7.4 nM in NCI-H1299 small cell lung cancer cells expressing the human receptor).1 It displays similar affinity for frog [Phe13]bombesin receptors (Ki = 11 nM) and lower affinities for human gastrin-releasing peptide receptor and bombesin receptor subtype 3 (Kis = 440 and 4,800 nM, respectively). Intrathecal administration of NMB (0.1-1 nmol) induces dose-dependent itching behavior in mice.2 NMB (50 μg, s.c.) reduces serum thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) by 30% in mice indicating a role in pituitary-thyroid axis function.3 In rodents, NMB is also involved in mediating stress and fear responses, thermoregulation, and can stimulate the contraction of the uterus and gastrointestinal smooth muscle.4

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
