  • Title: Enhancement of attention in man with ACTH/MSH 4-10.
    Author: Sandman CA, George JM, Nolan JD, van Riezen H, Kastin AJ.
    Journal: Physiol Behav; 1975 Oct; 15(5):427-31. PubMed ID: 176674.
    Abstract:
    Normal men were infused for 4 hr with ACTH/MSH 4-10 or a control solution. Behavioral testing after the infusion indicated that subjects who received ACTH/MSH 4-10 were less anxious and had better visual memory than control subjects but the predominant effect of the heptapeptide was to increase visual attention. It was speculated that ACTH/MSH 4-10 may be uniquely coded for attentional functioning.
