Anisodamine
Anisodamine Anisodamine is a tropane alkaloid originally found in plants in the Solanaceae family; it exhibits anti-inflammatory activity and is clinically used to induce atropinization in organophosphate poisoning subjects and…

Aniracetam
Aniracetam Aniracetam is a nootropic ampakine that exhibits anxiolytic and neuroprotective activities. Aniracetam acts as a positive allosteric modulator of AMPA receptors, slowing receptor deactivation; it also acts on D2…
Angiotensinogen (1-14), human
Angiotensinogen (1-14), human Angiotensinogen is also known as “renin substrate,” and is a precursor for all angiotensin peptides. Angiotensinogen is an α-2-globulin produced in the liver in response to estrogen,…
Angiotensin, dog/rat
Angiotensin, dog/rat Angiotensin peptides exhibit pressor (vasoconstrictive) activity through binding of the angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor, increasing blood pressure and volume. Angiotensin I (AT I) is a cleavage…
Angiotensin III, human
Angiotensin III, human Angiotensin III (AT III) is the smallest, least active peptide fragment of precursor angiotensinogen. AT III is an endogenous peptide produced by the degradation of AT II…
Angiotensin II, human
Angiotensin II, human Angiotensin II (AT II) is an endogenous peptide produced from AT I by angiotensin-converting-enzyme (ACE). AT II binds the AT II type 1 (AT1) receptor, stimulating GPCRs…
Angiotensin II (4-8), human
Angiotensin II (4-8), human Angiotensin II (AT II) is a peptide produced from AT I by angiotensin-converting-enzyme (ACE). AT II binds the AT II type 1 (AT1) receptor, stimulating GPCRs…
Angiotensin II (3-8), human
Angiotensin II (3-8), human Angiotensin II (AT II) is a peptide produced from AT I by angiotensin-converting-enzyme (ACE). AT II binds the AT II type 1 (AT1) receptor, stimulating GPCRs…
Angiotensin II (1-4), human
Angiotensin II (1-4), human Angiotensin II (AT II) is an endogenous peptide produced from AT I by angiotensin-converting-enzyme (ACE). AT II binds the AT II type 1 (AT1) receptor, stimulating…
Angiotensin I, human
Angiotensin I, human Angiotensin I (AT I) is a peptide cleavage product of angiotensin and served no primary biological purpose other than to function as a precursor to angiotensin II.…
