Spatiotemporal Expression, Distribution, and Processing of POMC and POMC-derived Peptides in Murine Skin [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Histochemistry and Cytochemistry, 2000
In murine skin, after depilation-induced anagen, there was a differential spatial and temporal expression of pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) mRNA, of the POMC-derived peptides β-endorphin, ACTH, β-MSH, and α-MSH, and of the prohormone convertases PC1 and PC2 in epidermal and hair follicle keratinocytes and in the cells of sebaceous units.

Functional heterogeneity of POMC neurons relies on mTORC1 signaling

open access: yesCell Reports, 2021
Hypothalamic pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons are known to trigger satiety. However, these neuronal cells encompass heterogeneous subpopulations that release γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), glutamate, or both neurotransmitters, whose functions are poorly ...

Obesity, POMC, and POMC-processing Enzymes: Surprising Results From Animal Models [PDF]

open access: yesEndocrinology, 2021
Abstract Peptides derived from proopiomelanocortin (POMC) are well-established neuropeptides and peptide hormones that perform multiple functions, including regulation of body weight. In humans and some animals, these peptides include α– and β–melanocyte-stimulating hormone (MSH). In certain rodent species, no β-MSH is produced from POMC
