[Dissociation of results obtained with an immunofluorescence technique by using anti-ACTH antibodies in three cases of pituitary "chromophobe" adenoma without hypercorticism; ultrastructural study (author's transl)].

Morphological studies of 3 pituitary "chromophobe" adenoma in patients without hypercorticism show positive immunofluorescenct cells with anti alpha, 17-39 ACTH antibody which are not revealed with anti beta, 1-24 ACTH antibody. These cells observed at the ultrastructural level contain secretory granules of 1,000 to 1,500 A in diameter. The existence in these cells of a substance having an immunological relationship with ACTH without biological activity is discussed.
