Background
Enables ghrelin receptor binding activity and growth hormone-releasing hormone activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of cytokine production; positive regulation of peptide hormone secretion; and regulation of digestive system process. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of insulin secretion. Is active in Schaffer collateral - CA1 synapse and glutamatergic synapse. Used to study middle cerebral artery infarction. Biomarker of multiple endocrine neoplasia and obstructive sleep apnea. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in diabetic neuropathy; esophagus adenocarcinoma; morbid obesity; obesity; and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human GHRL (ghrelin and obestatin prepropeptide).
