Gene Information

human ... POMC(5443)

Specificity

The antibody reacts with the amino terminal H-Tyr-Gly-Gly-Phe sequence of human O-endorphin. Therefore, a high cross-reactivity with homologues of identical sequence, such as [Met]-enkephalin and [Leu]-enkephalin and a number of opioid peptides, occurs; the antibody also reacts with swine and camel O-endorphin. However, the antibody does not recognize human beta-lipotropin and N-acetyl-beta-endorphin (Gramsch et al., 1983; Meo et al., 1983; Herz et al., 1982).

Immunogen

Synthetic human beta-endorphin coupled with poly-lysine or thyroglobulin (Gramsch et al., 1983; Meo et al., 1983) (H-Tyr-Gly-Gly-Phe sequence).

Application

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user.

With the decline of ovarian steroids levels at menopause, many women experience an increase in anxiety and stress sensitivity. The locus coeruleus (LC), a central source of noradrenaline (NE), is activated by stress and is inhibited by β-endorphin. Moreover, increased

Hypothalamic proopiomelanocortin (POMC) is processed to α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone, which interacts with the melanocortin antagonist agouti-related protein (AgRP), to regulate energy balance. The POMC-derived opioid peptide β-endorphin (β-EP) also affects feeding behavior via interactions with brain µ-opioid receptors (MORs), including autoinhibitory

Wet cupping therapy is a complementary therapy in pain management. The mechanism of this therapy, however, needs further elucidation. Cells injured by wet cupping therapy seem to stimulate the expression of heat shock protein 70 (HSP70). Its benefit in pain

The melanocortin neuronal system, which consists of hypothalamic proopiomelanocortin (POMC) and agouti-related protein (AgRP) neurons, is a leptin target that regulates energy balance and metabolism, but studies in humans are limited by a lack of reliable biomarkers to assess brain

Sigma-1 antagonism potentiates the antinociceptive effects of opioid drugs, so sigma-1 receptors constitute a biological brake to opioid drug-induced analgesia. The pathophysiological role of this process is unknown. We aimed to investigate whether sigma-1 antagonism reduces inflammatory pain through the
