Adrenocorticotropic hormone

Adrenocorticotropic hormone (100 nM, 5weeks) induces clusters development of spermatogenesis isolated from mouse seminiferous tubules and significantly increases the proportion of pre-meiotic cells (CDH-1, VASA, MC2R-positive) and the expression of PLZF, VASA, MC2R, THY-1 genes^[2].
Adrenocorticotropic hormone (100 nM, 5weeks) significantly increases the proportion and gene expression of meiotic marker BOULE-positive cells in cells isolated from mouse seminiferous tubules and has no significant effect on the proportion of meiotic marker CREM-positive cells, increases the proportion of post-meiotic marker ACROSIN-positive cells but decreases its gene expression, and has no effect on the expression of SCP3 and PROTAMINE^[2].
Adrenocorticotropic hormone (1.25×10^-4-2.5×10^-4 U/ml, 48 h) inhibits phagocytic function in MSU-stimulated THP-1-induced macrophages, promotes the polarization of MSU-stimulated macrophages to M2 type, downregulates the secretion of M1-type proinflammatory factors IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α, inhibit ROS production and reduces the opening of mitochondrial permeability transition pores (mPTP) to protect mitochondrial function^[3].
Adrenocorticotropic hormone (1.25×10^-4 U/ml, 48 h) regulates the transcription of inflammation-related genes by upregulating genes such as NR1H2, IL-37, and FccRIIIA, and downregulating genes such as NLRP3, MC2R, and MC3R in THP-1-induced macrophages^[3].
