Neoplasms (Cancer) 07/01/2003 - "In the crab Cancer pagurus, five orcokinins and an orcomyotropin-related peptide were unambigously identified, including the previously unknown peptide variant [Ser9-Val13]-orcokinin ([M+H]+ = 1532.8 Da)." 10/01/2005 - "Subsequent to electrical stimulation proctolin, Cancer borealis tachykinin-related peptide (CabTRP), FVNSRYa, carcinustatin-8, allatostatin-3 (AST-3), red pigment concentrating hormone, NRNFLRFa, AST-5, SGFYANRYa, TNRNFLRFa, AST-9, orcomyotropin-related peptide, corazonin, Ala13-orcokinin, and Ser9-Val13-orcokinin were detected. " 11/25/2005 - "As an ongoing effort to define the peptidome of the crustacean SG, we determine the neuropeptide complements of the SG of the Jonah crab, Cancer borealis, and the Maine lobster, Homarus americanus, using nanoflow liquid chromatography electrospray ionization quadrupole time-of-flight (ESI-QTOF) MS/MS. Numerous neuropeptides were identified, including orcokinins, orcomyotropin, crustacean hyperglycemic hormone (CHH), CHH precursor-related peptides (CPRPs), red pigment concentrating hormone (RPCH), beta-pigment dispersing hormone (beta-PDH), proctolin and HL/IGSL/IYRamide.
