General description
Application
Corticotropin Releasing Factor human, rat has been used:
- as a component in Dulbecco′s modified eagle medium (DMEM) for incubating lung explants[3]
- as a component in serum-free complete medium for isolation and culturing of fetal distal lung epithelial cells[4]
- in the synthesis of the corticotropin-releasing factor(CRF)-TAMRA 1 mixture[5]
- in chronic intracerebroventicular administration, to study its effect on hypoxia in hippocampus[6]
Biochem/physiol Actions
CRF is a hypothalamic peptide that releases ACTH and endorphin from the anterior pituitary. It is also a neurotransmitter in the central nervous system, and is involved in autonomic and endocrine responses to stress.
Corticotropin-releasing factor modulates stress responses.[7][1] It facilitates stress-stimulated activation of the hypothalamic−pituitary−adrenal system.[8]Corticotropin Releasing Factor/hormone (CRF/H) at higher levels has been observed in stress-related physiological and behavioral disorders. It has been involved in anxiety and depression disorders.[9] Under stress conditions, the release of CRH activates the corticotrophin-releasing hormone receptor type I (CRHR1) in the anterior pituitary for the release of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) that further stimulates the production/secretion of cortisol/corticosterone.[10]
Releases ACTH and endorphin from the anterior pituitary; central nervous system neurotransmitter.

Corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH; previously known as corticotropin-releasing factor) is the central regulator of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, which is the main organizer of the body’s response to stress.– Stress induces the hypothalamic production and release of CRH, which then causes
