alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone

Description:

Alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH) is a peptide hormone that plays a crucial role in regulating various physiological processes, including pigmentation, appetite, and energy homeostasis. It is derived from the pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) precursor and consists of a sequence of 13 amino acids. The primary function of α-MSH is to stimulate melanogenesis, the production of melanin in melanocytes, which affects skin and hair pigmentation. Additionally, α-MSH has been implicated in the modulation of inflammatory responses and the regulation of appetite, influencing body weight and metabolism. The substance is characterized by its ability to bind to melanocortin receptors, particularly MC1R, which mediates its effects on pigmentation. α-MSH is also involved in the central nervous system, where it can affect behavior and energy balance. Due to its diverse roles, α-MSH is of interest in research related to skin disorders, obesity, and metabolic diseases. Its CAS number, 581-05-5, is used for identification in chemical databases and regulatory contexts.
