Formaldehyde-ozone-induced fluorescence and ACTH immunoreactivity in basophil tumours of the pituitary

L I Larsson et al. Virchows Arch A Pathol Anat Histol. .

Abstract

The ACTH cells of human foetal pituitary displayed intense formaldehyde-ozone-induced fluorescence characteristic of peptides or proteins with NH2-terminal tryptophan. Fourteen pituitary tumours were examined histochemically. Of these, two displayed formaldehyde-ozone-induced fluorescence. These two tumours were the only ones to exhibit ACTH immunoreactivity.
