AdrenocorticotropicHormone (ACTH) (1-10), human is a fragment of the adrenocorticotropin hormone. It exhibits a weak potency of α-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH), but only at high doses (100 and 1000 nM).
AdrenocorticotropicHormone (ACTH) (18-39), also known as the Corticotropin-like Intermediate Lobe Peptide, stimulates insulin secretion as well as amylase and protein secretion in a dose-dependent manner similar to secretin and carbamylcholine.
ACTH (4-11) is a peptide fragment of adrenocorticotropichormone, a peptide hormone found in the brain that is involved in the biological stress response.
AdrenocorticotropicHormone (ACTH) (1-39) human (TFA), a member of the melanocortin family, is a melanocortin receptor agonist that stimulates corticosteroid (CS) production by the adrenals and is also found in the central nervous system (CNS).
AdrenocorticotropicHormone (ACTH) (1-39), rat, is a potent melanocortin 2 (MC2) receptor agonist. During in vitro incubation with membrane preparations, peptide fragments of ACTH (1-39) were formed and subsequently isolated by high-pressure methods.
Human growth hormone-releasing factor stimulates GH production and release by binding to the GHRH Receptor (GHRHR) on cells in the anterior pituitary.Growth hormone-releasing hormone is a hormone produced in the hypothalamus. The main role of growth hormo
Luteinizing hormone (LH), a heterodimeric glycoprotein hormone synthesized by the pituitary gland, serves vital functions in human reproductive processes.
18-Hydroxy-11-deoxy Corticosterone (18-OH-DOC) is a mineralocorticoid produced by the zona fasciculata of the adrenal gland, with its biosynthesis regulated by adrenocorticotropichormone (ACTH) and angiotensin II. This regulation heightens 18-OH-DOC production in isolated human adrenal glomerulosa cells and allows for its formation from 11-deoxy corticosterone (DOC) in human SK-MEL188 melanoma cells. As an intermediate in progesterone metabolism, 18-OH-DOC can be converted to aldosterone in rat adrenal glands' capsular portion. Its continuous infusion (200 μg rat per day) has been shown to raise systolic blood pressure in uninephrectomized saline-drinking rats, and elevated plasma levels of 18-OH-DOC have been observed in the adb db mouse model of type 2 diabetes.
ACTH (1-17), an adrenocorticotropin analogue, is a potent human melanocortin 1 (MC1) receptor agonist with a Ki of 0.21 nM. Adrenocorticotropichormone (ACTH), also known as corticotropin, is produced and secreted by the anterior pituitary gland.
