Immunofluorescent analysis using (a) tumor tissue and (b) its primary culture. (a) ACTH-stained (red) cells existed in the majority of GH-stained (green) cells. White arrow indicates an ACTH-stained cell (× 400). (b) The expression of Pit-1 (green) decreased in the nuclei of the cells with their cytosols stained by ACTH compared to GH-stained cells. White arrow indicates an ACTH-stained cell in the cytoplasm. Yellow arrow indicates a Pit-1-stained cell in the nucleus (× 400)
