Abstract
Normal male rats were forcefed a medium carbohydrate diet. The administration of adrenocorticotrophic hormone in amounts of 3 mg per rat per day for 10 days caused an increase in liver fat, glycosuria, a rise in urinary nitrogen and inorganic phosphorus, suppression of weight gains and some changes in organ weights.Keywords
