    Product Description

    Galanin (2-11) amide is a synthetic peptide fragment of the neuropeptide galanin and an agonist of the galanin-2 (GAL2) receptor (EC50 = 9.32 nM in a fluorescence imaging plate reader assay).1 It selectively binds to the GAL2 receptor (IC50 = 1.76 nM for the rat receptor) over the GAL1 receptor (IC50 = 879 nM for the human receptor) but does also bind to the GAL3 receptor (Ki = 271 nM for the rat receptor).1,2 Intracerebroventricular administration of galanin (2-11) amide (1 nmol/animal) decreases immobility in the forced swim test in rats.3 It also reduces the hind paw mechanical pain threshold and increases the hind paw cold sensitivity threshold in rats.1

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
