Relation to humans..

I was going through some articles and it seems to be agreed upon that Beta-MSH isn't found in humans, but rather it's a breakdown products of LPS. Can we maybe add a subsection to the page talking about Beta-MSH and it's effects in the human body / where it comes from etc?

Full disclosure; I am not an expert in this topic and just needed to study it briefly for my exam. If my information is wrong or anything feel free to disregard.

The article I was perusing and would add some info from is: PMID: 2432601 or DOI: 10.1073/pnas.83.24.9719 ^[1]
