- W2048218984 abstract "In humans, proopiomelanocortin (POMC) and the peptides derived from it have been individually identified in plasma under differing conditions. However, direct quantitative comparison has proved difficult because of the limitations of RIAs. Using a panel of monoclonal antibodies recognizing different regions of POMC, we have developed specific two-site immunoradiometric assays (IRMAs) for the ACTH precursors (POMC and pro-ACTH), ACTH, beta-lipotropin (beta LPH), beta-endorphin (beta EP), and the N-terminal POMC fragment (N-POC). We have quantified these peptides directly in plasma from normal subjects under basal conditions and in response to different regulatory factors. Basal levels of ACTH precursors, 5-40 pmol/L, were greater than or equal to ACTH, less than 0.9-11.3 pmol/L; N-POC, 5.6-16.8 pmol/L; beta LPH, 2.5-6.7 pmol/L; and beta EP less than or equal to 1.7 pmol/L. ACTH, N-POC, beta LPH, and beta EP levels increased in parallel in response to metyrapone (n = 8) and decreased in response to dexamethasone (n = 8), whereas ACTH precursor concentrations did not respond. After human CRH administration, peripheral concentrations of ACTH, N-POC, and beta LPH showed similar increments (median increment, 163%, 145%, and 172%, respectively; n = 6). POMC peptide responses to human CRH were also assessed in inferior petrosal sinuses draining the pituitary in 20 patients with pituitary-dependent Cushing's disease. In these patients, the increment in ACTH after CRH exceeded that in ACTH precursors by 4-fold (median, 459% and 96%). An increase in the ratios of ACTH/N-POC and ACTH/beta LPH was also apparent after CRH stimulation. The increment in beta EP after CRH always exceeded the increments in POMC and beta LPH. In summary, these data suggest that significant concentrations of ACTH precursors are present in the circulation of normal subjects, that ACTH precursors are not regulated in the same way as the processed POMC peptides, and that ACTH and beta EP are preferentially released from the pituitary in response to CRH." @default.
