Amino Acid Sequence

Trp-Met-Asp-Phe-NH2

Application

Cholecystokinin Fragment 30-33 Amide can be used for inactivating the CCK8 antiserum. The product can also be used as an antigen utilized in absorption control for testing the specificity of antisera.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Cholecystokinin Fragment 30-33 Amide also referred to as CCK-4 or Trp-Met-Asp-Phe amide is a peptide fragment derived from peptide hormone cholecystokinin. CCK-4 is a panicogenic agent that induces panic attacks in humans. This property of the compound can be used in scientific research for testing the new anxiolytic drugs.

Packaging

Recent investigations suggest that genes that confer risk for panic disorder (PD) may moderate response to panicogenic agents in healthy volunteers. Given the potential role of the central cholecystokinin receptor (CCKBR) (CT) polymorphism alleles 26 and 27 in PD, the

Benzodiazepine effects on cholecystokinin tetrapeptide (CCK-4)-induced panic attack (PA) in humans are incompletely characterized, in particular on the neurofunctional level.

Cholecystokinin (CCK) is a neurotransmitter found in high density in the brains of mammals. Microiontophoretic studies showing that benzodiazepines selectively antagonized CCK-induced excitation of rat hippocampal neurons have led to the hypothesis that CCK is an anxiogenic peptide. The hypothesis
