Biological Information

  • Product Name
    Melanin Concentrating Hormone, salmon
  • Note
    Research use only, not for human use.
  • Brief Description
    Melanin Concentrating Hormone (MCH), a 19 amino acid cyclic peptide, is largely expressed in the hypothalamus.
  • Description
    Melanin Concentrating Hormone (MCH), a 19 amino acid cyclic peptide, is largely expressed in the hypothalamus.(In Vitro):An orphan G protein-coupled receptor (SLC-1/GPR24) has been identified as a receptor for MCH (MCHR1). MCHR2 has higher protein sequence homology to MCHR1 than any other G protein-coupled receptor. MCHR2 is specifically activated by nanomolar concentrations of MCH, binds to MCH with high affinity, and signals through Gq protein.(In Vivo):Melanin Concentrating Hormone stimulates appetite. Continuous infusion of Melanin Concentrating Hormone into the ventricular system increases food intake for 7-8 days. Intracerebroventricular infusion of Melanin Concentrating Hormone (10 μg/day) causes a slight but significant increase in body weight in mice maintained on the regular diet. Chronic stimulation of the brain Melanin Concentrating Hormone system could cause obesity in mice.
