Rapid corticotropin test with 1-24 peptide.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The rapid corticotropin test with synthetic corticotropin ( 1-24 peptide) was studied. A single intravenous injection of the corticotropin was performed in 26 human subjects. The increment of plasma 11-0HCS concentration by the administration was less than that of NH-corticotropin dripping infusion or synthetic corticotropin intramuscular injection. Intramuscular rapid corticotropin test was considered to be an inaccurate method. No allergic reaction occurred in this series of patients.

Development of a non-extracted 'two-site' immunoradiometric assay for corticotropin utilizing extreme amino- and carboxy-terminally directed antibodies.
The development of a 'two-site' immunoradiometric assay (i.r.m.a.) for the direct estimation of human corticotropin-(1-39)-peptide in plasma is described. The assay is based on the simultaneous addition of 125I-labelled sheep anti-(N-terminal corticotropin) IgG (immunoglobulin G) antibodies and rabbit anti-(C-terminal corticotropin) antiserum to standards and unknowns (0.5 ml) followed by 18h i...

1. Effects of corticotropin-(1--24)-tetracosapeptide on the endogenous phosphorylation of proteins and lipids were studied in a membrane/cytosol fraction prepared from a lysed crude mitochondrial/synaptosomal fraction. 2. The labelling of proteins and lipids was monitored by incubation of the subcellular fraction for 10s with [gamma-32P]ATP. 3. The phosphorylation of proteins was dose-dependent...
متن کاملCholesterol side-chain cleavage in the rat adrenal cortex: isolation of a cycloheximide-sensitive activator peptide.
A cytosolic peptide activator (Mr approximately equal to 2,200) of cholesterol side-chain cleavage in the adrenal cortex has been isolated from normal corticotropin-treated rats and from rats implanted with the MtT/F4 corticotropin-secreting pituitary tumor. The isolation techniques were those common to peptide hormone purification, including tissue extraction into a highly acidic medium, gel f...
متن کاملPurification and characterization of a gamma-melanotropin precursor from frozen human pituitary glands.
A new melanocyte-stimulating peptide has been isolated from acid extracts of frozen human pituitary glands by salt/ethanol fractionation, Sephadex G-75 gel filtration and DEAE- and cM-cellulose ion-exchange chromatography. The peptide is glycosylated, has an N-terminal tryptophan residue and an apparent mol.wt. of 16000 as estimated by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis....
متن کاملRapid glucocorticoid receptor-mediated inhibition of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal ultradian activity in healthy males.
A complex dynamic ultradian rhythm underlies the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) circadian rhythm. We have investigated in normal human male subjects the importance, site of action, and receptor-mediated processes involved in rapid basal corticosteroid feedback and its interaction with corticotrophin releasing hormone (CRH) drive. Pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC), ACTH, and cortisol were measur...
