Open AccessMC1R is dispensable for the proteinuria reducing and glomerular protective effect of melanocortin therapy
Melanocortin therapy by using adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) or non-steroidogenic melanocortin peptides attenuates proteinuria and glomerular injury in experimental glomerular diseases and induces remissio...
