| Background | Alpha-Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone (α-MSH) belongs to a group of peptide hormones also known as melanotropins. α-MSH is a neuropeptide derived from proopiomelanocortin (POMC) which is expressed in the pituitary gland and belongs to the melanocortin family. It is well known in stimulating melanin synthesis (melanogenesis) as well as in feeding behavior and energy homeostasis. Recently, it has been found that α-MSH affects immune reactions in the host for controlling inflammation in the brain and peripheral organs. This antibody was generated by immunization of rabbits with α-MSH coupled to a carrier protein. |
