Biol. Chem. 278:776-783(2003). CC -!- FUNCTION: May be involved in the regulation of feeding, CC neuroendocrine system, memory, learning and in the afferent pain CC pathway (By similarity). CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted protein. CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Widely expressed in the central nervous CC system. High levels are found in substantia nigra, hypothalamus, CC hyppocampus, spinal cord, placenta and fetal brain; lower levels CC are found in testis, uterus and ovary. Also detected at high CC levels in colorectal adenocarcinoma. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the neuropeptide B/W family.
