Peptides and peptide pools in Hormone Research

Peptides and peptide pools play a pivotal role in hormone research, helping to unravel the complexities of hormonal regulation and signaling pathways. Discover our wide range of products including peptides from Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH), crucial for adrenal gland function, and Aquaporin-4, closely linked to hormone-regulated water homeostasis, for example. Our peptides and peptide pools can provide invaluable insights into hormonal regulation mechanisms, leading to better diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for a range of endocrine disorders.

We welcome your suggestions for new peptides or peptide pools to include in our catalog.

ACTH (1-39) (human)

ACTH (1-39), human is a synthetic peptide corresponding to the first 39 amino acids of human ACTH/adrenocorticotropin which is the major regulator of adrenal cortex function. ACTH stimulates the synthesis of steroidal hormones.

ACTH (18-39) (human)

Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) (18-39) is a C-terminal peptide fragment of ACTH, a peptide hormone found in the brain that is involved in the biological stress response. ACTH is produced in the anterior pituitary gland upon stimulation by the corticotropin releasing hormone from the hypothalamus in response to stress. It stimulates the secretion of steroid hormone, specifically glucocorticoids in the adrenal cortex by acting through a cell membrane receptor (ACTH-R). In mammals, the action of ACTH is limited to those areas of the adrenal cortex in which the glucocorticoid hormones cortisol (hydrocortisone) and corticosterone are formed. ACTH has little control over the secretion of aldosterone, the other major steroid hormone from the adrenal cortex
