ACTH (1–17), and aMSH (a-Melanotropin), both derived from POMC (proopiomelanocortin) are involved in melanogenesis. However, ACTH (1-17) has been found to be more potent in malanogenesis in human malanocytes. Both ACTH (1-17) and aMSH also increase dendricity, and proliferation in follicular melanocytes.
