ACTH and alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH) are both consecutively processed from proopiomelanocortin (POMC), which is synthesized in hypothalamic arcuate neurons innervating the paraventricular nuclei (PVN). POMC secretion/synthesis is regulated by energy availability. ACTH and alpha-MSH bind with equal affinity to melanocortin-4
