Description: Selective and competitive urotensin II receptor antagonist
Alternative Names: [Pen5,DTrp7,Orn8]hU-II(4-11)
Biological Activity
Urantide is a selective and competitive urotensin-II (UT) receptor antagonist (pKB = 8.3). Blocks hU-II induced contractions in thoracic aorta ex vivo. Exhibits no effect on noradrenaline or endothelin 1-induced contraction or on acetylcholine-induced relaxation. Behaves as a partial agonist in a calcium mobilization assay (in CHO cells expressing hUT receptors).Technical Data
