Acth pathway

    • Universiteit Utrecht

      ACTH stimulates steroidogenesis by activating membrane bound adenylate cyclase. Thereby the amount of cyclic adenosine monophophate increases and several protein kinases are activated. These in turn activate steroidogenic enzymes by phosphorylation.8 In case of an autonomous cortisol-secreting AT the plasma ACTH concentration is suppressed.

      The ACTH simulation test mimics this natural stimulatory pathway and demonstrates the capacity of the pet’s adrenal glands to produce cortisol in response to an injection of synthetic ACTH. The test requires two blood samples. The first blood sample is taken, then an injection of synthetic ACTH is given, and the second blood sample is taken 2 ...
