NCIt definition : A recombinant peptide hormone chemically identical to or similar to human polypeptide
hormone corticotropin (adrenocorticotropic hormone; ACTH). Secreted by the anterior
pituitary gland, circulating ACTH stimulates the adrenal cortex to secrete adrenocortical
steroids, especially cortisone, which elevate blood pressure in response to stress.
With normally functioning adrenal glands, recombinant corticotropin could be used
to achieve pharmacologic effects similar to those from cortisone administration.;
