Description
Obestatin is a 23 amino acid bioactive peptide encoded by the ghrelin gene. Obestatin has been used to study its effect on serum glucose and enzymatic parameters in rats and used to investigate its effect on plasma acyl-ghrelin and body weight in wistar rat. Obestatin opposes the action of circulating appetite-inducing hormone-ghrelin and plays a vital role in weight regulation via hindering food intake, jejunal contraction and reducing the body weight. Obestatin mediates its activity by interacting with the G-protein coupled receptor 39 (GPR-39). Obestatin, an obesity peptide, along with Ghrelin peptides are derived from the same prepropeptide, Ghrelin. In contrast to Ghrelin, Obestatin suppresses food intake, body weight gain, and gastrointestinal motility in rodents.
