About Ghrelin and Alexa Fluor 750
| Ghrelin | This gene encodes the ghrelin-obestatin preproprotein that is cleaved to yield two peptides, ghrelin and obestatin. Ghrelin is a powerful appetite stimulant and plays an important role in energy homeostasis. Its secretion is initiated when the stomach is empty, whereupon it binds to the growth hormone secretagogue receptor in the hypothalamus which results in the secretion of growth hormone (somatotropin). Ghrelin is thought to regulate multiple activities, including hunger, reward perception via the mesolimbic pathway, gastric acid secretion, gastrointestinal motility, and pancreatic glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. It was initially proposed that obestatin plays an opposing role to ghrelin by promoting satiety and thus decreasing food intake, but this action is still debated. Recent reports suggest multiple metabolic roles for obestatin, including regulating adipocyte function and glucose metabolism. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. In addition, antisense transcripts for this gene have been identified and may potentially regulate ghrelin-obestatin preproprotein expression. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2014] | |

| Alexa Fluor 750 | Alexa Fluor™ 750 (AF750, Alexa 750) has an excitation peak at 749 nm and an emission peak at 775 nm, and is spetrally similar to Cy®7 (GE Healthcare), APC-Fire™ 750 (BioLegend), CF®®750 (Biotium), DyLight™ 750 (ThermoFisher Scientific), iFluor® 750 (ATT Bioquest) and iFluor® 790 (ATT Bioquest). Alexa 750 is often used as a tandem fluorophore in flow cytometry or used on its own in fluorescence microscopy, in-vivo fluorescence microscopy or super-resolution microscopy applications. |
