Function Plays a role as a central modulator of cardiovascular and renal function and nociception. Plays also a role in energy metabolism and storage. Inhibits adrenocortical cell proliferation with minor stimulation on corticosteroid release (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.Spexin-1: Intracerebroventricular administration of the peptide induces an increase in arterial blood pressure, a decrease in both heart rate and renal excretion and delayed natriuresis. Intraventricular administration of the peptide induces antinociceptive activity. Also induces contraction of muscarinic- like stomach smooth muscles. Intraperitoneal administration of the peptide induces a reduction in food consumption and body weight. Inhibits long chain fatty acid uptake into adipocytes. Acts as a ligand for galanin receptors GALR2 and GALR3 (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.Spexin-2: Intracerebroventricular administration of the peptide induces a decrease in heart rate, but no change in arterial pressure, and an increase in urine flow rate. Intraventricular administration of the peptide induces antinociceptive activity (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
Subcellular Localization Secreted {ECO:0000250}. Secreted, extracellular space {ECO:0000250}. Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle {ECO:0000250}. Note=Secreted via the classical ER/Golgi- dependent pathway into the extracellular medium largely as a full- length protein without the signal peptide, and not as a hydrolyzed and amidated peptide. Localized extracellularly surrounding the villous trophoblastic cells. Detected in the serum (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
