Ki: 0.21 nM (human MC1 receptor)[1]
ACTH (1-17) is a potent agonist at the hMC1R. ACTH (1-17) shows high affinity for the hMC1R with a Ki value of 0.21±0.03 nM which is slightly higher than that of 0.13±0.005 nM for alpha-MSH[1]. ACTH (1-17) induces a slight and not significant increase in growth hormone secretion even when micromolar concentrations of the peptide are employed in rat pituitary cultures[2].

Peptide Solubility and Storage Guidelines:
1. Calculate the length of the peptide.
2. Calculate the overall charge of the entire peptide according to the following table:
| Contents | Assign value | |
| Acidic amino acid | Asp (D), Glu (E), and the C-terminal -COOH. | -1 |
| Basic amino acid | Arg (R), Lys (K), His (H), and the N-terminal -NH2 | +1 |
| Neutral amino acid | Gly (G), Ala (A), Leu (L), Ile (I), Val (V), Cys (C), Met (M), Thr (T), Ser (S), Phe (F), Tyr (Y), Trp (W), Pro (P), Asn (N), Gln (Q) | 0 |
3. Recommended solution:
| Overall charge of peptide | Details |
| Negative (<0) |
1. Try to dissolve the peptide in water first. 2. If water fails, add NH4OH (<50 μL). 3. If the peptide still does not dissolve, add DMSO (50-100 μL) to solubilize the peptide. |
| Positive (>0) |
1. Try to dissolve the peptide in water first. 2. If water fails, try dissolving the peptide in a 10%-30% acetic acid solution. 3. If the peptide still does not dissolve, try dissolving the peptide in a small amount of DMSO. |
| Zero (=0) |
1. Try to dissolve the peptide in organic solvent (acetonitrile, methanol, etc.) first. 2. For very hydrophobic peptides, try dissolving the peptide in a small amount of DMSO, and then dilute the solution with water to the desired concentration. |
Protocolo
Rat pituitary cells are incubated in the presence of varying concentrations of ACTH (1-17) (0.1 nM-1 μM). A significant increase of growth hormone secretion is documented with each concentration[1].

Mice[3]
The effects of ACTH (1-17) on the rate of DNA labeling in the metaphyseal bone of CD2F1 mice are tested on a chronopharmacological dosing schedule. Groups of mice that has been conditioned to a 12-hr light/12-hr dark schedule are injected at one of six different timepoints, 4 hr apart during ,a single 24-hr span with either a low (0.021 I.U/kg) or a high (20 I.U./kg) dose of ACTH (1-17). Control groups receive injections of a placebo at corresponding timepoints. Subgroups of mice are injected with [3H]thymidine ([3H]Tdr) to follow the changes in DNA labeling in the proximal tibial metaphysis at 15 min and 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 hr after ACTH (1-17) or placebo treatment[3].
