APGW-amide

• Description:

  APGW-amide is a neuropeptide. APGW-amide controls the growth of imposex structures and promotes growth in Haliotis asinina. APGW-amide inhibits Achatina neurons and modulates neuronal currents induced by neuroactive compounds. APGW-amide induces a rapid increase in [Ca2+]i in Fura-2/AM-loaded PC12 cells. APGW-amide is useful for research on the nervous system[1][2][3][4].
