Phe-Met-Arg-Phe amide trifluoroacetate Usage And Synthesis

Uses

Phe-Met-Arg-Phe amide trifluoroacetate is an activator of K+ current, with ED50 of 23 nM in the peptidergic caudodorsal neurons.

in vivo

Phe-Met-Arg-Phe amide (FMRFamide) stimulates growth hormone secretion in conscious OVX rats. The presence of Phe-Met-Arg-Phe amide-like immunoreactivity in neuronal elements in the hypothalamus suggested a role for this in the hypothalamic control of the anterior pituitary function. The injection of 200 ng (313.8 picomoles) of FMRFamide (in 2 uL) produces a significantly increased plasma GH 15 min after injection. The GH-increasing effect of 400-800 ng (627-1255 picomoles) of FMRFamide is already developed after 5 min and lasted up to 30 min[3].
