Context The normal cortisol response 30 or 60 minutes after cosyntropin (ACTH[1–24]) is considered to be ≥18 μg/dL (500 nmol/L). This threshold is based on older serum cortisol assays.

Dynamics of ACTH and Cortisol Secretion and Implications for Disease
The past decade has seen several critical advances in our understanding of hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis regulation. Homeostatic physiological circuits need to integrate multiple internal and external stimuli and provide a dynamic output ...

ACTH more than 2000 pg/ml; is it immunoassay interference or another matter?
Starting rifampicin in patients with Addison’s disease or adrenal tuberculosis may precipitate an adrenal crisis as a result of the induction of CYP 3A4 which in turn leads to increased breakdown of cortisol.

Repeated restraint stress induced neurobehavioral and sexual hormone disorders in male rats
Several studies have demonstrated that depression include disruptions not only for mental human disorders but also their healthy living. Rodent-based behavioral tests and models are widely used to understand the mechanisms by which stress triggers ...

Gel chromatographic characterization of immunoreactive adrenocorticotropin in patients with ACTH hypersecretion [PDF]
We investigated the molecular size of circulating immunoreactive ACTH by gel chromatography in patients with ACTH hypersecretion due to various disorders of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis.

Does an Analysis of the Pulsatile Secretion Pattern of Adrenocorticotropin and Cortisol Predict the Result of Transsphenoidal Surgery in Cushing’s Disease. [PDF]
The endocrinological, surgical, and histological findings of patients with ACTH-dependent Cushing's disease were correlated with the pulsatile secretion pattern of ACTH and cortisol and the outcome after transsphenoidal pituitary surgery.
