basic FUNCTION
| central control of feeding and potent uterine contractile effets, involved in feeding behavior as a catabolic signaling molecule |
|
stimulating contractions of the ileum and urinary bladder |
|
plays a role in feeding behavior and catabolic functions via CRH (corticotrophin-releasing hormone) |
|
acting in the central nervous system, rather than directly on bone cells, to regulate bone remodeling |
|
acting as a neuropeptide |
|
involved in the regulation of smooth muscle contraction |
|
involved in energy regulation |
|
implicated in the regulation of circadian rhythms through autocrine and/or paracrine actions |
