| Targets |
ACTH 22-39 targets the melanocortin receptors, particularly the melanocortin 2 receptor (MC2R), which is the primary receptor for ACTH in the adrenal cortex. However, the 22-39 fragment may have different receptor binding properties compared to full-length ACTH. ACTH 22-39 is involved in various biochemical pathways related to stress response and metabolic processes. The peptide's effects on the adrenal glands and its interaction with other hormonal systems make it a valuable tool for studying the regulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis.

| ln Vitro |
Two proline residues can be found in ACTH (22–39) at positions 3 and 15 in the N-terminus [1].
In vitro, ACTH 22-39 is used to study the structure and function of ACTH and its interactions with melanocortin receptors. The peptide contains two proline residues at positions 3 and 15 from the N-terminus. It is often utilized in research to study its effects on the adrenal glands and its interaction with other hormonal systems. The peptide can be added to cell culture systems expressing melanocortin receptors to assess its receptor binding and signaling activity. |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, ACTH 22-39 has been investigated for its potential therapeutic applications. The peptide has been shown to reduce body mass index, adipose tissue, and plasma glucose levels in diabetic patients. It also increases plasma cortisol concentrations and inhibits insulin production in pancreatic β cells. The peptide is used in research to study its effects on the adrenal glands and its interaction with other hormonal systems.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
For non-cellular receptor binding assays, ACTH 22-39 can be evaluated for affinity to melanocortin receptors using radioligand binding assays. Competitive binding experiments using [¹²⁵I]ACTH or other labeled ligands are performed, and the inhibition constant (Ki) values are determined. For functional assays, the peptide's ability to activate melanocortin receptors can be assessed by measuring cAMP accumulation.
|
| Cell Assay |
For in vitro cell-based assays, cells expressing melanocortin receptors are cultured and treated with ACTH 22-39. Receptor activation is measured by cAMP accumulation or other downstream signaling events. The peptide's effects on cell proliferation, differentiation, and gene expression can also be assessed.
|
| Animal Protocol |
For in vivo animal studies, ACTH 22-39 can be administered to animal models. The peptide's effects on body mass, adipose tissue, glucose metabolism, and cortisol levels can be assessed. The peptide's interactions with other hormonal systems can also be studied.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
The pharmacokinetic properties of ACTH 22-39 include a molecular weight determined by its amino acid sequence. As a peptide, it is typically administered parenterally and may have a short half-life due to proteolytic degradation.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
The toxicological profile of ACTH 22-39 has not been fully characterized. As a peptide fragment, its safety profile would be expected to depend on the dose and route of administration.
