Plasma pro-opiomelanocortin, pro-adrenocorticotropin hormone, and pituitary adenoma size in dogs with Cushing's disease

open access: yes, 2005
It is difficult to predict the size of pituitary corticotroph tumors in dogs with Cushing's disease (pituitary-dependent hyperadrenocorticism [PDH]) without pituitary imaging techniques.

Comparison the Effect of Eight-Week of Resistance and Combined Training on Pro-Opiomelanocortin Gene Expression in Brain Tissue and Insulin Resistance of Obese Wistar Rats [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences
Background and purpose: Studies have shown that exercise improves glucose uptake by acutely increasing insulin sensitivity. Additionally, acute exercise or adaptation to exercise training activates pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons, which affect ...

Hormonal regulation of the hypothalamic melanocortin system

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2014
Regulation of energy homeostasis is fundamental for life. In animal species and humans, the Central Nervous System (CNS) plays a critical role in such regulation by integrating peripheral signals and modulating behavior and the activity of peripheral ...

The molecular characterisation of chicken pituitary N-terminal pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC).

open access: yes, 1998
Monoclonal antibodies (Mabs) specifically recognizing the chicken pituitary corticotropes were used to isolate a population of closely related peptides from crude chicken pituitary extracts.

The Melanocortin System in Control of Inflammation

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2010
Melanocortin peptides, the collective term for α-, β-, and γ-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-, β-, γ-MSH) and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), are elements of an ancient modulatory system.
