A heptapeptide solution in acetate buffer (pH = 4, 150 micrograms/kg) of the amino acid sequence common to ACTH, alpha- and beta-MSH and lipotrophin, when injected intravenously into rabbits produced an increase in total lipids, cholesterol and free fatty acids after 1 h and a decrease in plasma calcium and phosphate after 2 h. No significant modification in the amount of creatinine, uric acid, urea, total proteins, CO2, Cl-, K+ or Na+ was observed.
