Pedersen R
Endocr Res . 1984 Jan; 10(3-4):533-61. PMID: 6100256
A rate-determining step in the cAMP-dependent action of ACTH on adrenal steroid biosynthesis is the interaction of cholesterol substrate with the cholesterol side-chain cleavage cytochrome P-450 in the mitochondrion. This...

Alfano J, Pedersen R, Kramer R, BROWNIE A
Can J Biochem Cell Biol . 1983 Jul; 61(7):708-13. PMID: 6627085
Adrenal and serum corticosterone concentrations, cholesterol association with adrenal cortical cytochrome P-450scc (the cytochrome P-450 catalyzing the conversion of cholesterol to pregnenolone), and adrenal cortical activities of cholesteryl ester hydrolase,...

Pedersen R, BROWNIE A
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 1983 Apr; 80(7):1882-6. PMID: 6300876
A cytosolic peptide activator (Mr approximately equal to 2,200) of cholesterol side-chain cleavage in the adrenal cortex has been isolated from normal corticotropin-treated rats and from rats implanted with the...

Pedersen R, BROWNIE A
Endocrinology . 1983 Apr; 112(4):1279-87. PMID: 6131811
Partially purified plasma membrane preparations from the inner zones of the rat adrenal exhibit a specific and high affinity for a pro-gamma MSH peptide, synthetic rat Lys-[125I-iodo-Tyr1] gamma 3MSH, that...

Pedersen R, Ling N, BROWNIE A
Endocrinology . 1982 Mar; 110(3):825-34. PMID: 6276159
A RIA for the gamma MSH region of proopiomelanocortin has been established and validated. The antiserum was raised to synthetic bovine gamma MSH, and it cross-reacts well with larger polypeptides,...

Pedersen R, BROWNIE A, Ling N
Science . 1980 May; 208(4447):1044-6. PMID: 6246578
A synthetic peptide, representing a portion of the 16K (16,000 dalton)-fragment sequence within the pro-adrenocorticotropin/endorphin precursor molecule, potentiates the steroidogenic action of the 1 to 24 portion of adrenocorticotropin [ACTH(1-24)]...

Pedersen R, BROWNIE A
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 1980 Apr; 77(4):2239-43. PMID: 6246528
Five peptides derived from pro-corticotropin/endorphin (pro-ACTH/endorphin), the pituitary corticotroph cell prohormone, were bioassayed with isolated rat adrenocortical cells: alpha- and beta-melanotropin, beta-lipotropin, beta-endorphin, and the amino-terminal region of pro-ACTH/endorphin known...

Pedersen R, Berry A
Clin Chem . 1977 Sep; 23(9):1726-33. PMID: 19169
A sensitive, optimized assay for serum AMP deaminase (EC 3.5.4.6) is presented, which is based on a colorimetric indophenol determination of ammonia liberated during the enzyme reaction. An average enzyme...
