ACTH [18-39] polyclonal, anti-human, mouse, rat

Protein Family: Hormones

Pathway and Disease: Endocrine System, Signaling Molecules and Interaction

Description:
Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) stimulates the adrenal glands to release cortisol. ACTH is a 39 aa peptide processed from precursor pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) by specific enzymatic cleavages. Defects in POMC are a cause of obesity.

Alternate Names: Adrenocorticotropic hormone, ACTH, corticotropin
