ACTH Information for Pathologists

Summary:

Adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH) is a peptide hormone secreted from the anterior pituitary gland that stimulates the adrenal cortex to secrete glucocorticoid hormones. The hormone comprises a long chain of amino acids that share a high degree of homology between humans, cows, pigs and sheep. Mature ACTH is derived from POMC cleavage in response to CRH release from the hypothalamus.

Common Uses By Pathologists:

ACTH immunostaining is useful for classifying pituitary tumors and other pituitary disease. It reacts with corticotrophs (cells that produce ACTH) including some small-cell carcinomas present in lung tissue which cause Paraneoplastic Syndromes.

Limitations and Warranty

This antibody is manufactured in accordance with clinical good manufacturing practices in an ISO13485:2016 certified production facility. It is intended for multiple uses including in vitro diagnostic use and research use only applications. Please see vial label for expiration date. We strive to always deliver antibodies with a shelf life of at least two years.
