Tridecapéptido biológicamente activo, aislado del hipotálamo. Se ha demostrado que induce la hipotensión en las ratas, que estimula la contracción del íleon en los conejillos de indias y del útero en las ratas, y que produce relajación en el duodeno en las ratas. Además, hay pruebas de su función como neurotransmisor en el sistema nervioso central y periférico.
