Extra Details:
Salusins are two newly discovered TOR-related peptides consisting of 28 and 20 aa and designated salusin-alpha and salusin-beta, respectively. Salusins are bioactive peptides with hemodynamic and mitogenic activities. Salusins improve calcium uptake and protein synthesis in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes, suggesting that salusins may be regulatory factors for myocardial growth and hypertrophy. Scientific data indicates the presence of salusin-alpha in human serum and urineSalusins are translated from an alternatively spliced mRNA of TOR2A, a gene encoding a protein of the torsion dystonia family. Intravenous administration of salusin-alpha or salusin- beta to rats causes rapid, profound hypotension and bradycardia. Salusins increase intracellular Ca(2 ), upregulate a variety of genes and induce cell mitogenesis. Salusin-beta stimulates the release of arginine-vasopressin from rat pituitary.
