Advanced Targeting Systems’ first product, 192-IgG-SAP, answered a long-sought request from behavioral neuroscientists: a neurotoxin for the cholinergic neurons of the basal forebrain. Over the years it has become the classic in the field and has changed the way that we think about those neurons and their role in learning and memory. Substance P-saporin (SP-SAP)
Bombesin-SAP (Cat. #IT-40) Bombesin is a 14-amino-acid peptide found in frog-skin. The human equivalent, gastrin releasing peptide (GRP) has been detected in itch pathways and plays a role in eating behaviors. GRP regulates numerous functions of the gastrointestinal and central nervous systems, including release of gastrointestinal hormones, smooth muscle cell contraction, and epithelial cell proliferation.
