InvivoChem Cat #:V7436CAS #:N/APurity >=98%Description: UR-MK299 is a novel and potent NPY (Neuropeptide Y) Y1 receptor antagonist. Neuropeptide Y (NPY) receptors belong to the G-protein-coupled receptorsuperfamily and have important roles in food intake, anxiety and cancerbiology. A number of peptides and small-molecule compounds have been characterized as Y1R antagonists and have shown clinical potential in the treatment of obesity, tumour and bone loss.
