Description

Acth (15-24) CAS NO 60063-06-1 is a synthetic peptide fragment of the adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), specifically encompassing amino acid residues 15 through 24. This compound is a critical intermediate and reference standard in advanced biochemical research and pharmaceutical development. It is primarily utilized by research institutions, diagnostic manufacturers, and pharmaceutical companies engaged in endocrinology, neuroscience, and peptide-based therapeutic discovery.

Application

• Biochemical Research: Used as a precise tool for studying ACTH receptor binding, signal transduction pathways, and the structure-activity relationships (SAR) of melanocortin peptides.
• Pharmaceutical Reference Standard: Serves as a high-purity calibration standard in the quality control and analytical method development for ACTH-related drug substances.
• Diagnostic Kit Development: Employed in the formulation and calibration of immunoassays and diagnostic kits designed to measure ACTH levels or related biomarkers.
• Neuroscience Studies: Applied in research investigating the role of melanocortins in learning, memory, behavior, and neuroinflammatory responses.
• Peptide Synthesis Intermediate: Acts as a key building block for the chemical synthesis of longer ACTH analogs or modified peptide sequences for therapeutic screening.
