Standard Curve for Human Neuromedin-U PharmaGenie ELISA Kit (SBES0096) |
Neuromedin-U is a 25 amino acids (23 aas in mouse and rat) neuropeptide found in the central nervous system. It regulates smooth muscle contraction in a tissue- and species-specific manner. Neuromedin-U binds to receptors NMUR1 and NMUR2, and activate intracellular signal transduction via calcium mobilization, phosphoinositide (or PI) signaling, and the inhibition of cAMP. Neuromedin-U plays roles in pain perception, stress response and cancer.
