OXA (17-33) acetate

SKU: orb1296406

Description

OXA (17-33) acetate is a selective orexin-1 receptor (OX1) agonist, exhibiting significantly higher potency at OX1 (EC50 = 8.29 nM) than at the orexin-2 receptor (OX2; EC50 = 187 nM). This peptide is a valuable research tool for investigating OX1 receptor-specific signaling, sleep/wake regulation, and reward pathways in both cellular and animal models.
