Selective galanin GAL1 receptor agonist (Ki values are 0.23 and 5.71 nM for GAL1 and GAL2 receptors respectively). Enhances food consumption in rats following i.c.v. administration and reduces CAP-induced inflammatory pain.

Potent endogenous NPFF receptor agonist (EC50 values are 0.0011 and 29 nM for NPFF2 and NPFF1, respectively). Attenuates contractile function of isolated rat and rabbit cardiac myocytes. Reduces heart rate, stroke volume, ejection fraction and cardiac output, and increases plasma prolactin levels in rats. GnIH homolog.

Neuropeptide Y (22-36), a 15 amino acid peptide, is a fragment of Neuropeptide Y.Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is a 36 amino-acid neuropeptide that is involved in various physiological and homeostatic processes in both the central and peripheral nervous systems. NPY has been identified as the most abundant peptide present in the mammalian central nervous system, which consists of the brain and spinal cord. It is secreted alongside other neurotransmitters such as GABA and glutamate.
