Description | Corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) (human) stimulates the synthesis and secretion of adrenocorticotropin in the anterior pituitary. Sequence: Ser-Glu-Glu-Pro-Pro-Ile-Ser-Leu-Asp-Leu-Thr-Phe-His-Leu-Leu-Arg-Glu-Val-Leu-Glu-Met-Ala-Arg-Ala-Glu-Gln-Leu-Ala-Gln-Gln-Ala-His-Ser-Asn-Arg-Lys-Leu-Met-Glu-Ile-Ile-NH2. |

In Vitro | CRF increases excitability of type II dlBNST neurons through activation of the AC-cAMP-PKA pathway, thereby causing pain-induced aversive responses[1]. |
In Vivo | The findings are consistent with a mechanism whereby the excess CRF that characterizes stress-related diseases initiates distinct cellular processes in male and female brains, as a result of sex-biased CRF1 signaling[2]. CRF injection on food intake (FI), CRF suppresses FI in 3-month male and female animals[3]. |
