Parenteral administration was associated with an increase in plasma cortisol levels, a raised excretion of 17-ketosteroids and 17-hydroxysteroids and a fall in the eosinophil count and urinary sodium /potassium ratio.

Regulation of the Adrenal Cortex Secretory Pattern by Adrenocorticotropin

Adrenal gland homogenates from rabbits stimulated for 28 days with adrenocorticotropin have been shown to synthesize cortisol, and when Δ5-pregnenolone substrate was used the specific activity of the isolated cortisol was four times as great as when progesterone was used.

The assay of adrenocorticotrophic hormone by the adrenal ascorbic acid-depletion method.

The present paper is a detailed description and evaluation of the method based upon the results of a number of comparative assays carried out over the past two years, finding that the adrenocorticotrophic activity of materials other than highly purified preparations of A.C.T.H. cannot be assayed in the animal whose hypophysis has been removed.
