Elévation du taux de la corticostérone plasmatique au cours de la surrénalite expérimentale de la souris

Summary Localized lesions of surrenalites may be produced in mice, by one injection of surrenalian heterologous tissue in complete Freund's adjuvant. The titer of plasmatic corticosteron does not decrease but on the contrary increases. These findings may be interpreted as the consequence of the appearance of anti-surrenalian hormone antibodies or of a serous factor stimulating the corticosteron secretion analogous to LATS, seen in Basedow's disease.
