Abstract
Permanent ACTH implants (USP Reference Standard and synthetic [beta]1-24-corticotrophin) into the median eminence significantly depress blood corticosterone levels in the rat, suggesting that a "short" feedback loop might link synthesis and/or release of ACTH to pre-existing levels of the hormone.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
