Description | Neuropeptide FF also called NPFF, F-8-F-amide, Neuropeptide FF Morphine Modulating Neuropeptide, an octapeptide belonging to the RF-amide family of peptides, interacts with two distinct G-protein-coupled receptors, NPFF(1) and NPFF(2) and has wide variety of physiological functions in the brain including central cardiovascular and neuroendocrine regulation. |
