Immunofluorescence studies by-means of anti-beta (1-24) corticotropin, anti-alpha (17-39) ACTH; anti-beta-MSH were performed on the anterior pituitary of an at-term anencephalic newborn. They showed small and rare cortico-melanotropic cells, as compared to those seen in the anterior pituitary of newborns. The comparison of these data with experimental observations suggest a possible autonomy of corticotropin function, although under hypothalamus control.
采用抗β（1 - 24）促肾上腺皮质激素、抗α（17 - 39）促肾上腺皮质激素和抗β-促黑素对一名足月无脑儿新生儿的垂体前叶进行免疫荧光研究。与新生儿垂体前叶中所见的细胞相比，这些研究显示促肾上腺皮质激素 - 促黑素细胞数量少且罕见。将这些数据与实验观察结果进行比较表明，促肾上腺皮质激素功能可能具有自主性，尽管受下丘脑控制。
