General description
Sauvagine is a polypeptide derived from the frog skin. It belongs to the CRH (corticotropin releasing factor) family. Sauvagine is made of 40 amino acids. It may also be found in the brain of mammals.
Biochem/physiol Actions
A peptide related to CRF and urotensin 1 that was first isolated from the skin of the frog Phyllomedusa sauvagei. Potent releaser of ACTH and β-endorphin from the anterior pituitary.
Sauvagine helps to liberate ACTH (adrenocorticotropic hormone) from the pituitary cells of rat. It has several important functions in the cardiovascular, endocrine and renal systems.

The corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) family of peptides consists of four distinct paralogs found on separate chromosomes in vertebrates. Among invertebrates, the family has been relatively well characterized in the insects where at least 2 or 3 paralogs, a CRF-binding protein

Neuroendocrine factors that produce species differences in aggregation behavior ("sociality") are largely unknown, although relevant studies should yield important insights into mechanisms of affiliation and social evolution. We here focused on five species in the avian family Estrildidae that differ

An infant animal isolated from its mother emits vocalizations spanning from the audible to the ultrasonic. These vocalizations are believed to represent distress signals from the pup. However, the neurobiological basis for vocalizations elicited by isolation has not been well
