On the potential role of proopiomelanocortin in skin physiology and pathology.

Pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) is the precursor of ACTH, alpha-MSH and beta-endorphin, neuropeptides with multiple regulatory functions. Both the pituitary gland and peripheral tissues such as mammalian skin are capable of generating POMC-derived neuropeptides. Mammalian skin is also a target for POMC products; their possible roles in skin physiology and pathology are discussed in this communication.[1]
