[pro3]gip (rat)

High affinity rat GIP receptor partial agonist (Kd = 13 nM). Increases cAMP accumulation in COS-7 cells transfected with rat GIP receptor, while also acting as a competitive antagonist of GIP.

GIP receptor antagonist (IC50 = 2.6μM). Inhibits GIP-stimulated insulin release from pancreatic β cells in vitro. In ob/ob mice, blocks the effects of GIP on insulin release and plasma glucose levels. Also improves intraperitoneal glucose tolerance, insul

Potent endogenous neuropeptide S receptor (NSPR) agonist (EC50 = 3.2 nM). Increases locomotor activity and wakefulness in mice. Also reduces anxiety-like behavior in mice.
