Product details
This oligoclonal antibody is a cocktail of monoclonal antibodies that have been carefully selected. Oligoclonal antibodies have not only the specificity and batch-to-batch consistency of a monoclonal antibody, but also have the advantage of the sensitivity of a polyclonal antibody due to their ability to recognize multiple epitopes on an antigen.

Biological function summary
Adrenocorticotropic hormone stimulates the adrenal cortex to produce and release glucocorticoids especially cortisol. ACTH is not part of a larger complex but acts as a singular hormone in its pathway. The hormone also influences the expression of certain enzymes important for steroid biosynthesis. In addition to its role in the adrenal cortex ACTH can mildly interact with melanocortin receptors on adipose tissues contributing to lipolysis and inflammatory processes.
Pathways
Adrenocorticotropic hormone functions in the HPA axis one of the body's key stress response systems. The hormone also involves in the regulation of the corticosteroid biosynthesis pathway. The primary protein it interacts with in these processes is cortisol which in turn regulates many physiological processes including immune response and metabolism. ACTH and cortisol form a feedback loop where elevated cortisol levels inhibit the release of both CRH and ACTH.
