Background

ACTH occurs in cells of the anterior pituitary and in neurons in brain. It regulates the corticosteroid production in the adrenal cortex. Beta endorphin and Met enkephalin are endogenous opiates. MSH (melanocyte stimulating hormone) increases the pigmentation of skin by increasing melanin production in melanocytes.

unknown
Immunogen

Synthetic human ACTH 1-24.
Specificity

This antibody reacts with human ACTH. This antibody cross reacts with ACTH in a wide variety of mammalian species. Traces of contaminating antibodies have been removed by solid phase absorption.

Localization

Cytoplasmic, Secreted
Species Reactivity

Cross-reacts with Human. Expected to cross-react with a wide range of other species due to sequence homology. Not yet tested in other species.
