Description Melanin Concentrating Hormone, salmon acetate (MCH (salmon)) is a 19 amino acid cyclic peptide, is largely expressed in the hypothalamus.
In vitro 一种孤儿G蛋白偶联受体(SLC-1/GPR24)已被鉴定为MCH(MCHR1)的受体。MCHR2与MCHR1的蛋白质序列同源性高于任何其他G蛋白偶联受体。MCHR2特异性地被纳摩尔浓度的MCH激活,高亲和力结合MCH,并通过Gq蛋白发出信号[1]。
In vivo Melanin Concentrating Hormone集中激素刺激食欲。将Melanin Concentrating Hormone集中激素持续灌注至脑室系统可使食物摄入量在7-8天内增加[2]。Melanin Concentrating Hormone集中激素(10 μg/天)通过脑室内灌注后,可在常规饮食下使小鼠体重轻微但显著增加。长期刺激小鼠大脑中的Melanin Concentrating Hormone集中激素系统可能导致肥胖[3]。
