Mouse Anti-POMC (Pro-opiomelanocortin, NPP, Melanotropin gamma, Gamma-MSH, Potential Peptide, Corticotropin, Adrenocorticotropic Hormone, ACTH, Melanotropin alpha, Alpha-MSH, Corticotropin-like Intermediary Peptide, CLIP, Lipotropin beta, Beta-LPH, Lipotropin gamma, Gamma-LPH, Melanotropin beta, Beta-MSH, Beta-endorphin, Met-enkephalin Corticotropin-lipotropin)
ACTH stimulates the adrenal glands to release cortisol. MSH (melanocyte-stimulating hormone) increases the pigmentation of skin by increasing melanin production in melanocytes. Beta-endorphin and Met-enkephalin are endogenous opiates.
