ACTH Antagonists
Adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) acts via a highly selective receptor that is a member of the melanocortin receptor subfamily of type 1 G protein-coupled receptors. The ACTH receptor, also known as the melanocortin 2 receptor (MC2R), is unusual in that it is absolutely dependent on a small accessory protein, melanocortin receptor accessory protein (MRAP) for cell surface expression and function. ACTH...
متن کاملCorticotropins (acth)
Purified alpha-corticotropin has been reported to exercise the following biological effects: (a) stimulation of the adrenal glands in normal and hypophysectomized rats, (b) production of blood eosinopenia in hypophysectomized rats, (c) maintenance of muscle glycogen in hypophysectomized rats, (d) inhibition of growth-promoting activity of somatotropin, (e) stimulation of melanocytes in the skin...
متن کاملHuman corticotropin (ACTH) radioimmunoassay with synthetic 1--24 ACTH.
A corticotropin antiserum was obtained from rabbits immunized with synthetic 1--24 corticotropin conjugated with bovine serum albumin. The antiserum did not cross react with synthetic alpha-melanotropin or with synthetic beta-endorphin and had a cross reactivity of 0.23% with human beta-lipotropin. We developed a radioimmunoassay with the antiserum obtained, in which we used polyethylene glycol...
متن کاملCross - Reactivity of Antiserum to ACTH With ACTH
Adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) and/3-1ipotropin (/3-LPH) have been localized by immunoperoxidase methods in nerve cells and fibers of the hypothalamus and brain stem of the ewe. 6-~m sections were immunostained first for either ACTH or/3-LPH. The reaction products and the antibody complexes were then eluted completely from the tissue, and the same section was immunostained for the second peptide. A...
