Specifications
Target Information
Prokineticin-2 may act as an output signal from the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), transmitting behavioral circadian rhythms and potentially synchronizing output locally within the SCN. It also has a strong effect on contracting gastrointestinal (GI) smooth muscle. In mice, Prok2 is involved in various functions, including neurogenesis, metabolic regulation, circadian rhythm, appetite control, reproductive function, and cardiovascular health. A deficiency in Prok2 results in prolonged and irregular estrous cycles in female mice, linked to its role in regulating gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) secretion in the hypothalamus.
