'''Lipotropin''' is a [[hormone]] produced by the cleavage of [[pro-opiomelanocortin]] (POMC). The [[anterior pituitary|anterior pituitary gland]] produces the [[pro-hormone]] POMC, which undergoes cleavage to [[Adrenocorticotropic hormone|adrenocorticotropin]] (ACTH) and β-lipotropin (β-LPH).<br />
<br />
== β-Lipotropin ==<br />
<br />
β-lipotropin is a 90 [[amino acid]] [[polypeptide]] that is the [[C-terminus|carboxy-terminal]] fragment of POMC.<br />
<br />
It stimulates [[melanocytes]] to produce [[melanin]], and can also be cleaved into smaller peptides. In humans, γ-lipotropin, [[α-MSH]], [[β-MSH]], [[γ-MSH]], [[α-endorphin]], [[β-endorphin]], [[γ-endorphin]], and [[met-enkephalin]] are all possible fragments of β-lipotropin.<ref>{{citation | url=http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/picrender.fcgi?artid=346829&blobtype=pdf | title= NH2-Terminal amino acid sequence and peptide mapping of purified human β-lipotropin: Comparison with previously proposed sequences |author= Joachim Spiess, Charles D.

<br />
β-lipotropin also performs lipid-mobilizing functions such as [[lipolysis]] and [[steroidogenesis]].<br />
<br />
== γ-Lipotropin ==<br />
<br />
γ-lipotropin is the [[N-terminus|amino-terminal]] peptide fragment of β-lipotropin. In humans, it has 56 amino acids.<br />
