Overview

Alsactide is a synthetic peptide and analogue of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). It is primarily used in Italy as a diagnostic agent to assess kidney function in the context of adrenal insufficiency. Alsactide acts as a non-selective agonist of melanocortin receptors, including the ACTH receptor (melanocortin 2 receptor, MC2R), but exhibits a different profile of receptor selectivity compared to natural ACTH. Notably, it does not appear to inhibit endogenous ACTH secretion in patients with Addison's disease[8].
