[Studies on the antigenicity of synthetic ACTH (beta1-24-corticotropin) in normal subjects (author's transl)]. 1975

G Mauff, and B Weinheimer, and B Urbaschek

9 healthy volunteers were subjected to a 3-week treatment with synthetic ACTH. Antibody response against beta1-24-corticotropin (Synacthen) was tested by passive transfer in the Prausnitz-Küstner reaction, complement fixation, passive hemagglutination and agar-gel diffusion. Failure of the healthy persons to produce reaginic or non-reaginic antibodies is compared titerature.

D003366 Cosyntropin A synthetic peptide that is identical to the 24-amino acid segment at the N-terminal of ADRENOCORTICOTROPIC HORMONE. ACTH (1-24), a segment similar in all species, contains the biological activity that stimulates production of CORTICOSTEROIDS in the ADRENAL CORTEX.

D000324 Adrenocorticotropic Hormone An anterior pituitary hormone that stimulates the ADRENAL CORTEX and its production of CORTICOSTEROIDS. ACTH is a 39-amino acid polypeptide of which the N-terminal 24-amino acid segment is identical in all species and contains the adrenocorticotrophic activity. Upon further tissue-specific processing, ACTH can yield ALPHA-MSH and corticotrophin-like intermediate lobe peptide (CLIP).

D000328 Adult A person having attained full growth or maturity. Adults are of 19 through 44 years of age. For a person between 19 and 24 years of age, YOUNG ADULT is available. Adults
