Melanocyte-stimulating hormone (MSH) has been reported to enhance the experimental metastatic behaviour of melanoma cells in the mouse model. alpha-MSH production and MSH receptor (melanocortin 1 receptor gene) expression have been detected in cultured normal human melanocytes and metastasized melan
alpha-Melanocyte stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH) was found significantly to reduce tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) stimulated upregulation of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) in normal adult cutaneous melanocytes. The maximum inhibitory response to alpha-MSH was obtained at around
## Abstract The effect of __Ξ±__βmelanocyte stimulating hormone (__Ξ±__βMSH) was investigated on gentamicinβinduced acute renal injury in rats. SpragueβDawley rats (200β250 g; __n__ = 8β10) were treated with gentamicin sulphate (GEN; 80 mg kg^β1^) or saline intraperitoneally for 7 consecutive days. _
Data on the dissociation of some properties of protein hormones are summarized. Preparations have been made in which the hormonal efect has been lost whereas the antigenic specificity or ability to localize in the target tissue has been retained. Hormone derivatives with these properties have been d
