Pituitary stellate cells from the normal adult male rats were immunohistochemically investigated at the light microscopical level by the use of rat TSH-beta, porcine ACTH1-39, porcine ACTH17-39, rat FSH and ovine FSH antisera. They were characterized by the stellate shape and a mimic engulfment of acidophils. In the present study, they were identified to be the ACTH cells but some were TSH cells. Although most of the corticotrophs showed a peripheral fringe immunostained with the porcine ACTH17-39 antiserum, some others were stained diffusively throughout the cytoplasm. The latter cells coincided, in shape and in homogenous stainability of the cytoplasm, with the stellate TSH cells. Both cells did not correspond but were independent in distribution at the same site of the gland on the adjacent two sections. The stellate type of FSH cells could react with the ovine FSH antiserum, but not with the rat FSH antiserum. Absorption tests of the ovine FSH, procine ACTH1-39 and procine ACTH17-39 antisera were carried out by an application of procine ACTH. In consequence, the porcine ACTH)-39 and porcine ACTH17-39 antisera were absorbed efficaciously by the ACTH antigen at the dose of 10 micrograms/ml, but the ovine FSH antiserum was not enough absorbed by ACTH in the doses of less than 1 mg/ml. It was not finally concluded whether or not the single stellate cells produced ACTH and FSH.
