Description

Acth (7-16)Nh2 is a synthetic peptide fragment derived from the adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) sequence. This compound is valued for its role as a key intermediate in advanced peptide synthesis and biochemical research. It is primarily utilized by pharmaceutical R&D teams, biotechnology companies, and academic laboratories focused on endocrinology, neuroscience, and peptide-based therapeutic development.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Research: Serves as a critical intermediate in the synthesis of longer ACTH analogs and related peptide hormones for drug discovery programs.
• Biochemical Studies: Used as a reference standard or probe in receptor binding assays and studies of melanocortin receptor (MCR) signaling pathways.
• Neuroscience Research: Employed in investigations of stress response, behavior, and the central nervous system effects of ACTH-derived peptides.
• Peptide Library Construction: Acts as a building block for the solid-phase or solution-phase synthesis of custom peptide sequences and libraries.
• Diagnostic Development: Potential use in the development of immunoassays and diagnostic kits targeting ACTH-related biomarkers.
