Guest guest Posted December 11, 2006 Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 , It's best to ask the group about the MSH test This is what I think it is I believe the MSH is a test for mold I did have this test through my primary doctor and she stated she did not know what the numbers meant and has no knowledge in the breast implant field My MSH test results 35 to 81 > #24 Q: What is alpha melanocyte stimulating hormone (MSH)? MSH is an anti-inflammatory, regulatory hormone made in the hypothalamus.It controls production of hormones, modulates the immune system and controls nerve function, too. It is made when leptin is able to activate its receptor in the proopio- melanocortin (POMC) pathway. If the receptor is damaged by peripheral immune effects, such as the release of too many pro- inflammatory cytokines, then the receptor doesn’t work right and MSH isn’t made. Leptin controls storage of fatty acids as fat, so MSH and leptin are a major source of interest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
