Description

The melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) is a cyclic neuropeptide isolated initially from salmon pituitary gland and later from rat hypothalamus (summarized by Nahon et al., 1992 [PubMed 1572663]). In mammals, MCH perikarya are confined largely to the lateral hypothalamus and zona incerta area with extensive neuronal projections throughout the brain, including the neurohypophysis. The anatomic distribution suggests a neurotransmitter or neuromodulator role for MCH in a broad array of neuronal functions directed toward the regulation of goal-directed behavior, such as food intake, and general arousal. MCH and 2 other putative neuropeptides, NEI and NGE, are encoded by the same precursor and appear colocalized in nerve cells and in many instances within the projections. The precursor is designated pro-melanin-concentrating hormone (PMCH).

Application Notes

The stated application concentrations are suggested starting points. Titration of the Pro-MCH antibody may be required due to differences in protocols and secondary/substrate sensitivity.

Immunogen

A portion of amino acids 94-122 from the human protein was used as the immunogen for the Pro-MCH antibody.

Storage

Aliquot the Pro-MCH antibody and store frozen at -20oC or colder. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
