158535-55-8 Usage
General Description
Alpha-helical corticotropin releasing factor (12-41) is a synthetic peptide analog that functions as a selective antagonist of corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF). It is designed to have high affinity for CRF receptors and to competitively block the binding of endogenous CRF, thus preventing the downstream signaling pathways activated by CRF. This antagonist has been used in research to investigate the role of CRF in stress-related disorders, anxiety, depression, and addiction. It has also been studied for its potential therapeutic applications in these conditions as well as in the regulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and the immune response.
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 158535-55-8 includes 9 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 6 digits, 1,5,8,5,3 and 5 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 5 and 5 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 158535-55:
(8*1)+(7*5)+(6*8)+(5*5)+(4*3)+(3*5)+(2*5)+(1*5)=158
158 % 10 = 8
So 158535-55-8 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
