A novel radiofluorinated agouti-related protein for tumor angiogenesis imaging
Amino Acids, 2012A novel protein scaffold based on the cystine knot domain of the agouti-related protein (AgRP) has been used to engineer mutants that can bind to the α(v)β(3) integrin receptor with high affinity and specificity. In the current study, an (18)F-labeled AgRP mutant (7C) was prepared and evaluated as a positron emission tomography (PET) probe for imaging ...

Peptoid mimics of agouti related protein
Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2003The Agouti Related Protein (AGRP) is an endogenous antagonist of melanocortin-3 and -4 receptors, each of which plays a key role in body weight homeostasis. We designed a peptoid trimer based on AGRP 111-113 in which a single chiral atom is used to partially restrain the backbone structure. Peptoid 5 displaced both radiolabeled Nle4-alpha-MSH (IC(50)=3.

Agouti‐Related Protein: Appetite or Reward?
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2003Abstract:Agouti‐related protein (AgRP) is an orexigenic peptide that acts as an antagonist of the melanocortin‐3 and ‐4 receptors in the hypothalamus. Studies suggest that the melanocortin and opioid systems interact in the control of ingestive behavior. Also, AgRP has been shown to especially increase intake of a palatable diet.

Role of Agouti-related protein in adrenal steroidogenesis
Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology, 2007The levels of Agouti-related protein (AgRP) mRNA in the adrenal are second only to those in the hypothalamus, raising questions regarding its target binding sites and its specific role in adrenal steroidogenesis. We and others demonstrated the presence of a population of melanocortin receptor-4 (MC4R) positively coupled to steroidogenesis in adrenal ...

Inverse agonist activity of agouti and agouti-related protein
Peptides, 2003Agouti and agouti-related protein (AgRP) are endogenous antagonists of the melanocortin receptors (MCxR). Previous data showed that recombinant full-length agouti and a synthetic fragment of AgRP, AgRP (83-132), are inverse agonists at the MC1R and MC4R, respectively.
