Presence of ACTH in the normal human adrenal. ACTH immunoreactivity is exclusively located in some chromaffin cells (high panel), identified as chromogranin A (CGA) immunoreactive cells (low panel), in the medulla. ACTH was detected by using antibodies against the N-terminal region of the peptide. ZF, zona fasciculata; ZR, zona reticularis. Illustration of the data published in Ref. (9).
