By: S. Laws*, M. Hotchkiss*, J. Ferrell*, S. Jayaraman*, L. Mills*, W. Modic n, N. Tinfo n, M. Fraites*, T. Stoker *, R. Cooper*

author keywords: atrazine; simazine; propazine; adrenal; steroidogenesis; ACTH; corticosterone
MeSH headings : Adrenocorticotropic Hormone / drug effects; Adrenocorticotropic Hormone / physiology; Animals; Corticosterone / metabolism; Dose-Response Relationship, Drug; Herbicides / blood; Herbicides / toxicity; Male; Radioimmunoassay; Rats; Rats, Wistar; Triazines / blood; Triazines / toxicity
TL;DR: The rapid release of ACTH and subsequent activation of adrenal steroidogenesis following a single exposure to ATR, SIM, PRO, DIA, or DEA may reflect chlorotriazine-induced changes at the level of the brain and/or pituitary. (via Semantic Scholar)
