  • Title: Changes induced in rabbit plasma and aqueous humour by ACTH4-10 and ACTH1-24.
    Author: Stárka L, Hampl R, Simecková A, Obenberger J, Drouhault R.
    Journal: Endocrinol Exp; 1985 Mar; 19(1):25-8. PubMed ID: 2985354.
    Abstract:
    In the rabbit the effect of a single i.m. dose of ACTH4-10 (130 micrograms kg-1) was compared with that of ACTH1-24 (20 micrograms kg-1). In contrast to ACTH1-24 the heptapeptide ACTH4-10 did not stimulate the adrenal secretion of corticosterone. Both ACTH fragments induced a slight hyperglycemia and in the aqueous humour they increased the concentration of proteins.
