Application
Adrenocorticotropic hormone fragment 7-38 human has been used as astandard in external calibration for mass spectrometry.[1]
Biochem/physiol Actions
Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) is a polypeptide hormone thatstimulates adrenocortical activity. It is produced by the prohormoneproopiomelanocortin (POMC), which is synthesized in the corticotroph andmelanotroph cells found in the intermediate and anterior lobe of the pituitarygland and the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus. ACTH is also synthesized inthe skin. It plays a role in controlling steroidogenesis in the adrenal glandand prevents reactive oxygen species (ROS)-induced cell toxicity. Higher levelsof ACTH lead to skin hyperpigmentation due to the hyperstimulation ofmelanocytes, characteristic of primary adrenal insufficiency (PAI). Deficiencyof ACTH synthesis, receptors, or signaling is associated with adrenalinsufficiency.[2]

A multireaction monitoring method using high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry was developed for 12 target peptides for determination of endogenous peptide concentrations in human serum. Chromatographic separation conditions were optimized and recoveries for liquid-liquid extraction, solid-phase extraction (SPE), and ultrafiltration

A corticotropin-inhibiting peptide (CIP) has been isolated from human pituitary extracts. It consists of 32 amino acids with a proposed sequence identical to residues 7--38 of corticotropin (ACTH). The peptide has been synthesized by the solid-phase method. The melanotropic activity

The fine-tuning of topographically organized projections in sensory systems is strongly influenced by electrical activity and use-dependent modifications in synaptic strength. Since calcineurin (CaN), a Ca(2+)-calmodulin dependent serine/threonine phosphatase has been associated with activity-dependent modifications in synaptic efficacy we studied

Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) concentration-dependently enhanced corticosterone and cyclic-AMP release by dispersed rat inner adrenocortical cells. A VIP-receptor antagonist and the ACTH-receptor antagonist corticotropin-inhibiting peptide annulled both adrenocortical-cell responses to VIP, while the protein kinase (PKA) inhibitor H-89 blocked only

Within two weeks, hypophysectomy induced in rats a striking decrease in the level of circulating ACTH (the concentration of which was at the limit of sensitivity of our assay system), coupled with a net reduction in the plasma corticosterone concentration
