Synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human CHGA

Biochem/physiol Actions

CHGA is a member of the chromogranin/secretogranin family of neuroendocrine secretory proteins. It is found in secretory vesicles of neurons and endocrine cells. Its gene?s product is a precursor to three biologically active peptides; vasostatin, pancreastatin, and parastatin. These peptides act as autocrine or paracrine negative modulators of the neuroendocrine system. Other peptides, including chromostatin, beta-granin, WE-14 and GE-25, are also derived from the full-length protein. However, biological activities for these molecules have not been shown.The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the chromogranin/secretogranin family of neuroendocrine secretory proteins.

In prostate cancer (PCa), neuroendocrine differentiation (NED) is commonly observed in relapsing, hormone therapy-resistant tumours after androgen deprivation. However, the molecular mechanisms involved in the NED of PCa cells remain poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the expression of
