Bioactivity Urotensin II, mouse acetate is an endogenous ligand for the orphan G-protein-coupled receptor GPR14 or SENR. Urotensin II, mouse acetate is a potent vasoconstrictor. Urotensin II, mouse acetate plays a physiological role in the central nervous system[1].
Target GPR14
In Vivo Urotensin II is a somatostatin-like cyclic peptide which functions as an arterial vasocontrictor, vasodilator, and bronchoconstriction mediator[1]. Urotensin II (0.1 nmol, 0.3 nmol, and 3 nmol; intracerebroventricular administration) induces anxiogenic-like behaviors in the elevated plus maze test and the hole-board test in mice in a dose-dependent manner[1].
