Anatomical context of Apgw-amide

  • FMRFamide (Phe-Met-Arg-Phe-NH2), APGW-amide (Ala-Pro-Gly-Trp-NH2), oxytocin and [SER2]-Mytilus inhibitory peptide ([SER2]-MIP) (Gly-Ser-Pro-Met-Phe-Val-NH2) were examined on the inward current (Iin) caused by achatin-I (Gly-D-Phe-Ala-Asp), which has been isolated from the Achatina ganglia [8].
 

Associations of Apgw-amide with other chemical compounds

  • Dopamine and the neuropeptides Ala-Pro-Gly-Trp-NH2 (APGWamide or APGWa) and Phe-Met-Arg-Phe-NH2 (FMRFamide or FMRFa) all activate an S-like potassium channel in the light green cells of the mollusc Lymnaea stagnalis, neuroendocrine cells that release insulin-related peptides [9].
