{"product_id":"v2230-100ug","title":"Synacthen Antibody \/ ACTH","description":"\u003cp\u003ePOMC (pro-opiomelanocortin or corticotropin-lipotropin) is a 267 amino acid polypeptide hormone precursor that goes through extensive, tissue-specific post-translational processing by convertases. POMC is cleaved into ten hormone chains named NPP, ACTH, alpha-MSH (Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone), beta-MSH, gamma-MSH, CLIP (corticotropin-like intermediary peptide), Lipotropin-beta, Lipotropin-gamma, beta-endorphin and Met-enkephalin. ACTH (also called Corticotropin) is a 39 amino acid active peptide produced by the anterior pituitary. Clone AH26 antibody is specific to Synacthen (aa 1-24 of ACTH) and does not react with CLIP (aa 17-39). ACTH is produced by cells of immune system (T-cells, B-cells, and macrophages) in response to stimuli associated with stress. Specific antibody is a useful marker in classification of pituitary tumors and the study of pituitary disease. It reacts with ACTH-producing cells (corticotrophs). It also may react with other tumors (e.g. some small cell carcinomas of the lung) that cause paraneoplastic syndromes by secreting ACTH.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NSJ Bioreagents","offers":[{"title":"100 ug \/ Mouse","offer_id":49474950365464,"sku":"V2230-100UG","price":539.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0590\/5652\/1400\/files\/get_image_b8f17f8d-cf10-4c79-a8ad-0932469477e7.jpg?v=1734444079","url":"https:\/\/danabiosci.com\/products\/v2230-100ug","provider":"Dana Bioscience","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
