MELANOCYTE-STIMULATING HORMONE AND PARKINSONISM

The Lancet, 1973
Abstract Circulating b-melanocyte-stimulating-hormone (β-M.S.H.) levels were found to be increased in parkinsonism, especially when the disease was bilateral. This explains the seborrhœa of parkinsonism. The defect in M.S.H. secretion is likely to be part of a widespread neuroendocrine abnormality in parkinsonism.

Adrenocorticotropin and Melanocyte-Stimulating Hormone in the Brain*

Endocrinology, 1979
We employed several ACTH immunoassays using antisera with affinities for differing regions of the molecule as well as an ACTH bioassay to further study the distribution and character of ACTH in rat, cat, and monkey brain. Acid extracts of brain tissues were examined for N-terminal and midportion ACTH concentrations and MSH content.

Behavioral effects of melanocyte stimulating hormone

Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 1980
Abstract Consideration of the isolation, structure, localization, and biological actions of melanocyte stimulating hormone are followed by a review of its behavioral effects. Evidence pertaining to various hypotheses offered in explanation of these behavioral effects is examined and evaluated.

α-Melanocyte-stimulating hormone and behavior

Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 1982
Melanocyte-stimulating hormone (MSH) has putative adaptive significance in all forms of species where it is present. In mammals the polypeptide chain influences learning, memory and attention. Chemically MSH shares the first 13 (alpha-MSH) or the first 18 or 22 (beta-MSH) amino acids with adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), even though the mechanisms ...

The Melanocyte-Stimulating Hormones

1962
Publisher Summary From a research standpoint the subject of hormonal control of pigmentation is only forty-six years old. It began when two biologists, P. E. Smith and B. M. Allen independently and at the same time, found that removing the pituitary glands of tadpoles and frogs produced marked lightening in the color of their skin.

A radioimmunoassay for γ-melanocyte stimulating hormone

Life Sciences, 1980
A specific radioimmunoassay for ..gamma..-melanocyte stimulating hormone-like peptides was developed. An antiserum raised in rabbit to synthetic bovine ..gamma../sub 3/-MSH, one of the possible ..gamma..-MSH peptides, specifically recognizes the portion between His/sup 5/ and Arg/sup 14/ of ..gamma../sub 3/-MSH without significant cross-reaction with ...
