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]
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
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).
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
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.
