Description

γ-1-Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone (MSH), amide is a 11-amino acid peptide. γ-1-Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone (MSH) regulates sodium (Na+) balance and blood pressure through activation of the melanocortin receptor 3 (MC3-R).

IC50 & Target

Melanocortin receptor 3 (MC3-R)[1]

In Vitro

γ-Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone (γ-MSH) regulates a multitude of metabolic functions including energy homeostasis, food intake, sodium (Na+) balance, and blood pressure regulation. γ-MSH is processed from the precursor hormone pro-opio-melanocortin (POMC) in the pituitary gland, where component peptides are released into the cerebral spinal fluid and systemic circulation. The natural receptor for γ-MSH is the melanocortin receptor 3 (MC3-R), a G-protein-coupled receptor that activates adenylate cyclase and is expressed in brain (hypothalamus, cortex, and thalamus), gut, placenta, and kidney. γ-MSH regulates Na+ balance by inducing urinary Na+ excretion (natriuresis) under conditions of high dietary salt intake[1].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
