A gamma-melanocyte stimulating hormone-like peptide causes reflex natriuresis after acute unilateral nephrectomy.
Previous studies have shown that acute unilateral nephrectomy stimulates sodium (UNaV) and potassium (UKV) excretion by the remaining kidney through reflex pathways requiring an intact pituitary gland, and the natriuresis is accompanied by an increase in the plasma concentration of a peptide or peptides derived from the adrenocorticotropic hormone-beta-endorphin precursor molecule pro-opiomelan...

Previous studies have shown that acute unilateral nephrectomy stimulates sodium (UNaV) and potassium (UKV) excretion by the remaining kidney through reflex pathways requiring an intact pituitary gland, and the natriuresis is accompanied by an increase in the plasma concentration of a peptide or peptides derived from the adrenocorticotropic hormone-/3-endorphin precursor molecule pro-opiomelanoc...
متن کاملPrevention of reflex natriuresis after acute unilateral nephrectomy by melanocortin receptor antagonists.
γ-Melanocyte-stimulating hormone (γ-MSH), atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), and oxytocin have been identified as candidate hormonal mediators of the reflex natriuresis that follows acute unilateral nephrectomy (AUN). Pharmacological characterization of the third melanocortin receptor (MC3-R) indicates that it uniquely responds to physiological concentrations of γ-MSH. We tested the roles of γ-M...
متن کاملY2-Melanocyte-Stimulating Hormone
Peptides of the pro-opiocortin class produce pronounced cardiovascular and natriuretic actions. We have investigated the acute cardiovascular effects of one of the most potent members of this class, y2-melanocyte stimulating hormone (y2-MSH), in rats. Pressor actions of y2MSH administered systemicaMy were eliminated by ganglionic blockade with chlorisondamine. Peripheral cholinergic blockade fa...
متن کاملAlpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone peptide-targeted melanoma imaging.
Melanocortin-1 (MC1) receptor is an attractive melanoma-specific target over-expressed on the surface of melanoma cells. Alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH) peptide analogues can specifically bind MC1 receptors with nanomolar binding affinities, making alpha-MSH peptide analogues very promising candidates for developing effective melanoma-specific imaging probes. This review highli...
