DOI: 10.1016/j.brainres.2018.05.044
Abstract: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is closely associated with marked inflammation. Although alpha-Melanocyte-Stimulating Hormone (α-MSH) exerts powerful anti-inflammatory effects, changes in endogenous α-MSH levels following TBI remain poorly understood. We investigated the changes of α-MSH levels… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.exer.2022.108986
Abstract: The melanocortin system plays an essential role in the regulation of immune activity. The anti-inflammatory microenvironment of the eye is dependent on the expression of the melanocortin-neuropeptide alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH). In addition, the melanocortin… read more here.

Desacetyl-α-melanocyte stimulating hormone and α-melanocyte stimulating hormone are required to regulate energy balance
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Molecular Metabolism"
DOI: 10.1016/j.molmet.2017.11.008
Abstract: Objective Regulation of energy balance depends on pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC)-derived peptides and melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R). Alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH) is the predicted natural POMC-derived peptide that regulates energy balance. Desacetyl-α-MSH, the precursor for α-MSH, is present… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.0c01462
Abstract: Stationary phase Staphylococcus aureus, especially methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA), has been widely associated with many persistent infections as well as biofilm-associated infections, which are challenging due to their increasing antibiotic resistance. α-Melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH)… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-75786-z
Abstract: The melanocortin peptides have an important role in regulating body weight and appetite. Mice that lack the desacetyl-α-MSH and α-MSH peptides (Pomctm1/tm1) develop obesity. This effect is exacerbated by a high fat diet (HFD). However,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/07435800.2023.2180029
Abstract: BACKGROUND Frailty, is a geriatric syndrome that reduces the resistance to stress situations caused by activities of daily living and increases morbidity and mortality. We hypothesized that a decrease in orexigenic peptides or an increase… read more here.
