title: Investigations on the turnover of adrenocortical mitochnodria. VII. Effects of ACTH on the half-life of mitochondria from the zona reticularis of the rat adrenal cortex.
abstract: The half-life of mitochondria from the zona reticularis of the rat adrenal was calculated by determining the radioactivity decay curves of the mitochondrial compartment of 3H-thymidine-injected animals, using autoradiographic methods. ACTH was found to enchance significantly the half-life of the organelles.
