Target: GPR39

Application: Obestatin is a peptide hormone derived from the same prohormone as ghrelin, primarily secreted by the stomach. It exerts its effects by binding to GPR39, a G-protein coupled receptor, influencing various physiological processes. Obestatin is known to inhibit food intake, reduce gastric motility, and promote the proliferation of pancreatic β-cells. It plays a role in energy homeostasis, glucose metabolism, and gastrointestinal function. Due to its involvement in regulating appetite and metabolic processes, Obestatin is a significant focus of research in obesity, diabetes, and gastrointestinal disorders, offering potential therapeutic applications in these areas.
