Description

Adipokinetic hormone is a neuropeptide hormone found in insects that is involved in the regulation of circadian rhythms. Adipokinetic hormone also increases activity of peptidase, lipase, amylase, and polygalacturonase in the salivary glands. In brain samples treated with H2O2, this peptide exhibits antioxidative activity by decreasing lipid peroxidation and increasing membrane fluidity in a PKC/cAMP-dependent manner.

Custom Order

  • Size of single unit expressed as number (e.g. '500' in the case of 500 mg)
  • Total quantity of unit size desired (e.g. '10' in the case of 10 x 500 mg). If only one unit is desired, you may leave this blank.
  • This field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.
