Endogenous ACTH Concentration-Cortisol Secretion Dose Analysis Unmasks Decreased ACTH Potency in Cushing's Disease with Restoration after Successful Pituitary Adenomectomy

BACKGROUND: The relationship between circulating ACTH levels and cortisol secretion in Cushing's disease is not precisely known. HYPOTHESIS: Chronic ACTH hyperstimulation leads to decreased adrenal potency and is restored after normalization of ACTH secretion. SUBJECTS: Subjects included 20 pat...
