Product Description
Melanin Concentrating Hormone, salmon TFA (MCH (salmon) TFA) is a 19-amino acid (AA) neuropeptide originally discovered in the pituitary gland of teleost fish, which regulates food intake, energy balance, sleep status, and the cardiovascular system. Melanin Concentrating Hormone, salmon TFA (MCH (salmon) TFA) is a ligand for SLC-1/GPR24 and MCHR2.
Melanin Concentrating Hormone, salmon TFA is a 19-amino-acid neuropeptide originally identified in teleost fish pituitary, known to regulate food intake, energy balance, sleep states, and cardiovascular functions.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
SLC-1/GPR24, MCHR2[1]
Melanin Concentrating Hormone, salmon TFA acts as a ligand for the orphan G protein-coupled receptors SLC-1 (GPR24/MCHR1) and MCHR2, which are involved in feeding behavior and energy homeostasis.
ln Vitro
Not available. As a neuropeptide ligand, it binds to MCH receptors to activate downstream signaling pathways, though specific in vitro functional potency data such as EC50 or IC50 values are not provided in the literature.
ln Vivo
Not available. The peptide is known to regulate food intake, energy balance, and sleep in teleost fish models, but quantitative in vivo pharmacodynamic data for the salmon isoform are not reported.
Enzyme Assay
Not available. For related MCH receptor binding assays, typical protocols involve radioligand binding using membranes from cells expressing MCHR1 or MCHR2, incubation with labeled MCH, and measurement of bound radioactivity.
Cell Assay
Not available. For MCH functional assays, typical protocols involve calcium flux measurements in cells expressing MCH receptors, where MCH binding induces intracellular calcium increase detected by fluorescent indicators.
Animal Protocol
Not available. For in vivo studies of MCH, standard protocols involve intracerebroventricular (ICV) injection in rodent models followed by monitoring of food intake, body weight, and locomotor activity over 24-72 hours.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Not available. As a peptide neuropeptide with TFA salt, its pharmacokinetic properties may include rapid proteolytic degradation in vivo and typical peptide half-life of minutes to hours depending on administration route.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Not available. Peptide TFA salts generally exhibit manageable toxicity in animal studies at pharmacologically relevant doses, but specific toxicological data for this compound are not reported.

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
H2O :~25 mg/mL (~11.29 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: 100 mg/mL (45.18 mM) in PBS (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution; with sonication.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)
Preparing Stock Solutions 1 mg 5 mg 10 mg
1 mM 0.4518 mL 2.2589 mL 4.5177 mL
5 mM 0.0904 mL 0.4518 mL 0.9035 mL
10 mM 0.0452 mL 0.2259 mL 0.4518 mL

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box

Instructions to calculate molar mass (molecular weight) of a chemical compound:
  • To calculate molar mass of a chemical compound, please enter the chemical/molecular formula and click the “Calculate’ button.
Definitions of molecular mass, molecular weight, molar mass and molar weight:
  • Molecular mass (or molecular weight) is the mass of one molecule of a substance and is expressed in the unified atomic mass units (u). (1 u is equal to 1/12 the mass of one atom of carbon-12)
  • Molar mass (molar weight) is the mass of one mole of a substance and is expressed in g/mol.
