These infusion rates produce plasma levels similar to those seen during corticotropin stimulation.
2
For example, corticotropin-releasing factor regulates the homeostatic pattern of visceral functions during stress.
3
Concentrations of endorphins and corticotropin increased significantly also during the anaerobic exercise test.
4
A Sheehan event probably occurred 33 years before the patient presented with corticotropin deficiency.
5
Thirty-one patients underwent also a human corticotropin releasing hormone test.
1
Corticotropin releasing factor and adrenocorticotropin stimulation tests, as well as 24-hour urinary-free cortisol measurements were performed.
2
When the cells are stimulated by the secretagogue 8-bromo-cAMP, these polypeptides are coordinately secreted with mature adrenocorticotropin into the culture medium.
3
In neither case was the sorting or secretion of adrenocorticotropin detectably altered, suggesting that the proteoglycan is not required for these processes.
4
The AtT-20 cell, a mouse pituitary tumor line that secretes adrenocorticotropin and beta-endorphin, sorts the proteins it externalizes into two exocytotic pathways.
5
Subsequently, 50% of the birds from each dosage group were subjected to a 6-day adrenal function test, whereby they were injected with long-lasting adrenocorticotropin (ACTH).
1
The effects of electrical stimulation of medial amygdala on the adrenocortical sensitivity to adrenocorticotrophin (ACTH) were investigated in hypophysectomized rats.
2
Subsequently, large fluctuations occurred in the adrenocorticotrophin concentration in the plasma of foetal sheep which were consistent with the stimulation of adrenocorticotrophin secretion.
1
The cardiovascular, fluid, electrolyte and endocrine responses to both steroid treatments were similar to those with corticotrophin.
2
The stress peptide corticotrophin-releasing factor (CRF) contributes to relapse to drug and alcohol seeking following withdrawal, although the cellular actions are poorly understood.
1
In all cases, cortisol level increased three-fold after adrenocorticotrophichormone.
2
Plasma adrenocorticotrophichormone (ACTH) and cortisol levels were determined at serial time points.
3
These sb mice also had significantly greater increases in plasma adrenocorticotrophichormone than mice with other genotypes after a stressful stimulus.
4
Low cortisol levels are almost universal in infants after treatment with dexamethasone, but the adrenal gland remains responsive to adrenocorticotrophichormone stimulation.
5
This study was designed to investigate the effect of chronic exercise on exercise-induced changes in plasma concentrations of adrenocorticotrophichormone (ACTH) and corticosterone in rats.
1
The best imaging approach for localizing ectopic ACTH-secreting tumors is not defined.
2
The rise in pressure was significant after 8 h of ACTH infusion.
3
The increase in cortisol levels was preceded by a corresponding ACTH increase.
4
The transport mechanism for precursor ACTH thus appears to recognize other prohormones.
5
Serum cortisol concentrations and ACTH stimulation tests were used to detect CIRCI.

1
Plasma cortisol and adrenocorticotropichormone responses were similar to those found to experimentally-induced pain in normal subjects, i.e.
2
Plasma adrenocorticotropichormone levels were significantly higher in the CRF patients, possibly indicative of an underlying hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis abnormality.
3
The serum cortisol and adrenal steroids levels were always nearly undetectable, but the adrenocorticotropichormone levels were extremely high.
4
However, blood pressure, mean heart rate and the plasma adrenocorticotropichormone level showed no significant differences between the two groups.
5
We studied four patients with adrenocorticotropichormone (ACTH)-independent hypercortisolism due to bilateral massive enlargement of the adrenal glands.
6
Peak cortisol responses to corticotropin releasing factor and adrenocorticotropichormone were correlated with each other and with 24-hour urinary-free cortisol excretion.
7
It is important to compare the laterality of aldosterone secretion by performing simultaneous bilateral blood collection 15 min following adrenocorticotropichormone stimulation.
8
The patient was finally diagnosed as having CAH with 17a-hydroxylase deficiency according to the endocrine profile, adrenocorticotropichormone stimulation test, and genetic analysis.
9
Evidence of lower cortisol and lower response to adrenocorticotropichormone in infants subsequently developing BPD led to studies of early low-dose hydrocortisone to prevent BPD.
10
SR-BI mRNA is increased in stressed wild type mice and in Y1 adrenal cells treated with adrenocorticotropichormone; the latter effect is inhibited by HDL.
11
The effects of adrenocorticotropichormone (ACTH) on systolic blood pressure, and echocardiographic indexes of heart size and function were investigated in 14 infants.
12
Adrenocorticotropichormone therapy may achieve partial or complete remission of seizures, but the effect is usually temporary.
13
Purpose: Adrenocorticotropichormone (ACTH) secreted by pituitary tumors lead to changes in nasal cavity anatomy and physiology.
