adrenocorticotropic hormone (acth) , rat

Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH) (1-39), rat (TFA), is a potent agonist of the melanocortin 2 receptor (MC2).

Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH) (1-39), rat, is a potent melanocortin 2 (MC2) receptor agonist. Peptide fragments of ACTH (1-39) were formed during in vitro incubation with membrane preparations, isolated by high-pressure liquid chromatography, and characterized by determining their amino acid composition and NH2-terminal residue.

[DPro5] Corticotropin Releasing Factor, human, rat, a selective R2 agonist of corticotropin-releasing factor hormone (CRF), is a hypothalamic hormone that prompts the release of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and β-endorphin. Unlike typical agents, it does not induce anxiogenic effects but instead influences learning and memory processes in rats [1].

ACTH (3-24) (human, bovine, mouse, ovine, porcine, rabbit, rat), the fragment spanning amino acids 3-24 of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), serves as a research tool in studying illnesses such as cancer, immune diseases, and cardiovascular disease [1].

[Asu1,6-Arg8]Vasopressin is a vasopressin agonist that enhances cyclic AMP accumulation and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) release triggered by corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) in cultured rat anterior pituitary cells [1] [2].

(Des-Glu5)-ACTH (1-24) (human, bovine, rat) is an adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) analogue synthesized by the anterior pituitary gland to regulate cortisol and androgen production. This polypeptide tropic hormone variant differs from ACTH by the absence of glutamic acid at the fifth position.

(Des-His^6)-ACTH (1-24) (human, bovine, rat) is an adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) analog. Produced by the anterior pituitary gland, ACTH is a polypeptide tropic hormone that regulates the production of cortisol and androgens [1].

α-Helical CRF (9-41) is a synthetic peptide antagonist that targets corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF), effectively inhibiting CRF-induced adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) release both in vitro, with isolated rat anterior pituitary cells at concentrations of 0.5 to 5 µM, and in vivo, in non-anesthetized, intact rats at doses ranging from 0.02 to 0.6 µmol/kg. Moreover, it prevents stress-induced ACTH release at a dose of 0.6 µmol/kg in rats and demonstrates the ability to enhance social interaction times in a rat model addressing nicotine-induced conditioned anxiety, in addition to decreasing binge-like ethanol consumption in mice.

ACTH (1-13) is a 13-aa peptide with cytoprotective effects in a model of ethanol-induced gastric lesions in rats. Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), also known as corticotropin, is produced and secreted by the anterior pituitary gland and plays a critical role in the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis in response to biological stress.
