Abstract
Adrenocortico-trophin did not affect the number of the circulating blood platelets in either rats or man. Up to 66 mg. of purified ACTH was given intramusc. to human subjects without any signficiant effect on either the blood platelets or lymphocytes, although there was a marked rise in the circulating neutrophiles.Keywords
