Phosphorylation of Pro - ACTH / Endorphin - derived Peptides 4909
The possible occurrence of phosphorylation of proadrenocorticotropin(ACTH)/endorphin-derived peptides in the rat was examined by incubating dissociated anterior and intermediate pituitary cells with a %amino acid plus 32Pi. In both lobes of the pituitary newly synthesized pro-ACTH/endorphin was labeled with 32P. In the intermediate pituitary, corticotropin-like intermediate lobe peptide (CLIP) ...
متن کاملCharacterization of pro-ACTH/endorphin-derived peptides in rat hypothalamus.
The proteolytic processing pattern of pro-ACTH/endorphin in rat hypothalamus is similar to the pattern in the pars intermedia; peptides the size of beta-endorphin, gamma-lipotropin (gamma-LPH), corticotropin-like intermediate lobe peptide (CLIP), alpha-melanotropin (gamma-MSH), joining peptide, and glycosylated gamma 3-MSH all represent predominant end products. Equimolar amounts of beta-endorp...
متن کاملAppetite-modifying actions of pro-neuromedin U-derived peptides
Neuromedin U (NMU) is known to have potent actions on appetite and energy expenditure. Deletion of the NMU gene in mice leads to an obese phenotype, characterized by hyperphagia and decreased energy expenditure. Conversely, transgenic mice that overexpress proNMU exhibit reduced body weight and fat storage. Here, we show that central administration of NMU or the related peptide neuromedin S (NM...
متن کاملFunctions for pro-opiomelanocortin-derived peptides in obesity and diabetes.
Melanocortin peptides, derived from POMC (pro-opiomelanocortin) are produced in the ARH (arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus) neurons and the neurons in the commissural NTS (nucleus of the solitary tract) of the brainstem, in anterior and intermediate lobes of the pituitary, skin and a wide range of peripheral tissues, including reproductive organs. A hypothetical model for functional roles of ...
متن کاملAntimicrobial Peptides Derived from Milk: A Review
Milk proteins provide a natural source of bioactive peptides with potential health benefits and applications in the food industry. The release of these peptides from milk proteins is achieved either by hydrolysis using digestive proteases or by lactic acid bacteria fermentation. Peptides, particularly those derived from milk proteins, can exert a wide range of nutritional, functional and biolog...
