Evidence for the differential expression of the functional alpha- melanocyte-stimulating hormone receptor MC-1 on human monocytes

alpha-Melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH) is released by immunocompetent cells as well as the pituitary gland and functions as a potent inhibitor of immune and inflammatory reactions. Therefore, it was investigated whether normal human monocytes express melanocortin (MC) receptors specific fo...
