• Description: ACTH (1-24) is a peptide hormone and neurotransmitter that belongs to the corticotropin-releasing factor family. It is also known as corticotropin-releasing hormone, adrenocorticotropic hormone, or CRH. ACTH binds to the ACTH receptor, which activates protein kinase A and cyclic AMP response element binding protein (CREB). Activation of these proteins leads to an increase in the production of cortisol. ACTH can be used as a research tool for studying ion channels and ligands. It can also be used as an antibody in cell biology research.
