The cyto-immunological tests prove that anti-ACTH (17-39) immunserums do not become localized only on beta cells of anterior lobe of Man's pituitary.

However, we have established that they were particulary numerous in the pituitary of six infants suddendly deceased. Conspicuously, these cells with acidophilic granulations correspond to a stage of corticotropic cells maturation.
