Biochem/physiol Actions
Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) is a polypeptide hormone thatstimulates adrenocortical activity. It is produced by the prohormoneproopiomelanocortin (POMC), which is synthesized in the corticotroph andmelanotroph cells found in the intermediate and anterior lobe of the pituitarygland and the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus. ACTH is also synthesized inthe skin. It plays a role in controlling steroidogenesis in the adrenal glandand prevents reactive oxygen species (ROS)-induced cell toxicity. Higher levelsof ACTH lead to skin hyperpigmentation due to the hyperstimulation ofmelanocytes, characteristic of primary adrenal insufficiency (PAI). Deficiencyof ACTH synthesis, receptors, or signaling is associated with adrenalinsufficiency.

A multireaction monitoring method using high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry was developed for 12 target peptides for determination of endogenous peptide concentrations in human serum. Chromatographic separation conditions were optimized and recoveries for liquid-liquid extraction, solid-phase extraction (SPE), and ultrafiltration

A corticotropin-inhibiting peptide (CIP) has been isolated from human pituitary extracts. It consists of 32 amino acids with a proposed sequence identical to residues 7--38 of corticotropin (ACTH). The peptide has been synthesized by the solid-phase method. The melanotropic activity

The fine-tuning of topographically organized projections in sensory systems is strongly influenced by electrical activity and use-dependent modifications in synaptic strength. Since calcineurin (CaN), a Ca(2+)-calmodulin dependent serine/threonine phosphatase has been associated with activity-dependent modifications in synaptic efficacy we studied

Corticotropin-inhibiting peptide (CIP), the 7-38 fragment of human ACTH(1-39), is known to act as an antagonist of ACTH receptors. Accordingly, CIP has been found to inhibit ACTH-stimulated glucocorticoid secretion of dispersed rat adrenocortical cells, without per se affecting the basal

Orexins-A and B are two novel hypothalamic peptides, which, like leptin and neuropeptide-Y (NPY), are involved in the central regulation of feeding. Since leptin and NPY were found to modulate adrenal function, we have examined whether orexins are able to
