δ-MSH
<p>δ-MSH (Delta-Melanocyte-Stimulating Hormone) is a synthetic peptide representing a naturally occurring endogenous melanocortin. It is a high-purity, research-grade agonist that exhibits a distinct and selective binding profile for melanocortin receptors, primarily the melanocortin 3 receptor (MC3R). This peptide is a crucial tool for dissecting the specific physiological roles of MC3R signaling in metabolism, ene…

1.MECHANISM OF ACTION
δ-MSH functions as a potent endogenous agonist with high affinity and selectivity for the melanocortin 3 receptor (MC3R), and lesser affinity for MC4R and MC5R. Upon binding to MC3R, which is widely expressed in the brain, gut, and other peripheral tissues, it activates the Gs protein-coupled signaling pathway.
2.PRODUCT INDICATIONS
This product is indicated for advanced in vitro and in vivo research in neuroendocrinology, metabolism, and pharmacology. Key applications include: investigating the unique functions of MC3R in energy balance and glucose homeostasis, studying its role in appetite regulation and metabolic disorders, serving as a selective reference agonist in receptor binding and functional assays to characterize melanocortin receptor subtypes, and exploring its potential involvement in inflammation and cardiovascular control.
3.CLINICAL EFFICACY OF PRODUCT
δ-MSH is a fundamental research ligand and not a direct therapeutic. Its efficacy lies in its role as a highly selective pharmacological probe. Research utilizing δ-MSH has been instrumental in differentiating the physiological functions of MC3R from the closely related MC4R, providing critical evidence that MC3R plays a non-redundant role in nutrient partitioning and metabolic adaptation. This foundational work supports MC3R as a novel and promising target for the development of next-generation therapeutics for obesity, cachexia, and metabolic syndrome.
