Description | beta-MSH, human is an endogenous peptide hormone and neurotransmitter produced by pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC), and is also an agonist of MC4-R (melanocortin 4 receptor). |
In vitro | In human THP-1 monocytic cells, beta-MSH (0.1–100 nM) suppressed lipopolysaccharide (LPS, 10 ng/mL)-induced TNF-α production in a concentration-dependent manner, with maximal inhibition observed at 1–10 nM. beta-MSH did not significantly alter IL-10 expression but reduced proinflammatory cytokine production via activation of melanocortin receptors, particularly MC1R and MC3R[1]. |
In vivo | In mouse models, intraperitoneal injection of beta-MSH (0.5 mg/kg) significantly reduced plasma TNF-α levels induced by LPS (0.5 mg/kg) and attenuated inflammatory responses[1]. |
