Abstract

In the rat, the administration of beta1-24-corticotrophin during 7 days following an uninephrectomy enhances significantly the compensatory hypertrophy of the remaining kidney. There is no increase in renal compensatory hypertrophy when ACTH is injected to previously adrenalectomized rats. This action of ACTH could be related to the diabetes mellitus induced by this hormone or to an increase in sodium reabsorption by the tubular epithelial cells.
