Objective: During infection, metabolism and immunity react dynamically to promote survival through mechanisms that remain unclear. Pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) cleavage products are produced and released in the brain and in the pituitary gland.

Does plasma ANP participate in natriuresis induced by alpha-MSH?
alpha-Melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH; 0.6 and 3 nmol) micro-injected into the anteroventral region of the third ventricle (AV3V) induced a significant increase in diuresis without modifying natriuresis or kaliuresis. Intraperitoneal (ip) injection of alpha-MSH (3 and 9.6 nmol) induced a significant increase in urinary sodium, potassium and ...

Modulation of host defense by the neuropeptide alpha-MSH.
alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH), a peptide that occurs within the brain, the circulation, and other body sites, is a potent antipyretic agent when given centrally or peripherally. The peptide likewise inhibits inflammation and aspects of the acute-phase response.
