TRH-induced secretion of adrenocorticotropin and cortisol in dogs with pituitary-dependent hypercortisolism

Background: In dogs, spontaneous Cushing's syndrome is most often pituitary-dependent and caused by hypersecretion of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), resulting in increased adrenocortical glucocorticoid secretion similar to horses. In horses with Cushing's syndrome (or pituitary pars i...
