Bioactivity | VH-N412 is a vectorized neuropeptide (NT) with good blood-brain barrier permeability. VH-N412 binds to the low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) and neuropeptide receptor 1 (NTSR-1), and acts as a pharmacological-induced hypothermia (PIH) inducer. VH-N412 exhibits anticonvulsant and neuroprotective effects, and can be used in the study of neurological diseases such as epilepsy. [1] |
