Amino Acid Sequence
D-Phe-Cys-Tyr-D-Trp-Arg-Thr-Pen-Thr-NH2
Application
CTAP has been used as a μ-opioid receptor (MOR) antagonist:
- to study the anti-hyperalgesic effect of dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) inhibitor isoleucine-proline-isoleucine (IPI) and vildagliptin in carrageenan-induced inflammation
- to study the role of MOR in glutamate and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) efflux during predator stress in rats
- to determine the endogenous opioid peptide involved in blocking pain induced by activated gastrin-releasing peptide (Grp+) neurons
Biochem/physiol Actions
CTAP is a peptide antagonist produced from somatostatin analogs.
