Endogenous melanocortin receptor 2 (MC2R) agonist.

ACTH (1-39) (human) is a melanocortin receptor 2 (MC2R) agonist with an EC50 of 57 pM. ACTH (1-39) (human), also known as corticotropin, is a cleavage product from the precursor proopiomelanocortin (POMC) and is a peptide hormone produced in the anterior pituitary gland upon stimulation by corticotropin releasing hormone from the hypothalamus, often in response to stress. ACTH (1-39) (human) is used to treat multiple sclerosis relapses, acting by stimulating adrenal corticosteroid production through the MC2R.
