Hypopituitarism: adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)
Hypopituitarism: prolactin
Insulin tolerance test: see (GH). Metyrapone test: Metyrapone blocks 11-hydroxylase enzyme in the adrenal cortex, which reduces synthesis of cortisol, hence stimulating ACTH and proximal buildup of deoxycortisol in the adrenal. Lack of an increase in de
TRH stimulation test: TRH is a potent stimulator of prolactin.
