Gene Information
human ... POMC(5443)
General description
Pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC), a complex pro-peptide is expressed in hypothalamus, pituitary gland, skin and the immune system. This gene is located on human chromosome 2p23.3.
Immunogen
synthetic α-MSH peptide conjugated to bovine serum albumin.
Application
Anti-α-MSH antibody produced in rabbit has been used in:
- immunohistochemistry
- radioimmunoassay/α-MSH immunoassay
- enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)
Biochem/physiol Actions
α-MSH (melanocyte stimulating hormone) and melanocortin-4-receptor (MC4R) are key signaling components in the control of energy homeostasis and of the hypothalamic response to obesity. Mutations that reduce the functional activity of -MSH lead to obesity in mammals and mice lacking the MC4 receptor (MC4R-/-) are hyperphagic and very obese, indicating that -MSH signaling transduced by MC4-R limits food intake and body fat mass.
α-Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone (α-MSH) stimulates the production of melanin in melanocytes and induced pigmentation and skin darkening. It increases the activity of tyrosinase that induces melanogenesis. α-MSH has potent anti-inflammatory effects and is also a neuromodulator. Analogs of α-MSH may be used to study melanogenesis and neuromodulation.
Physical form
Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.

Background: Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory disease with significant morbidity and impact on quality of life. Our understanding of the pathophysiology is incomplete, impairing efforts to develop novel therapeutic targets. Immunohistochemistry studies have produced conflicting results and no

alpha-Melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH), a tridecapeptide derived from pro-opiomelanocortin, has potent antiinflammatory activity in laboratory animals. alpha-MSH inhibits nitric oxide production by murine macrophages, an influence believed to reflect activation of an autocrine circuit in these cells, one that is based
