In the 1946 elections to the Indian constituent assembly, the Congress lost the Muslim vote to the Muslim League; it reluctantly accepted the partition of the Indian subcontinent and the formation of the state of Pakistan. After partition the Congress, as the largest party, governed India under Nehru's leadership.
ACTH is a hormone produced in the anterior pituitary gland that stimulates the adrenal glands to release cortisol, dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S), and aldosterone.
Production of all three classes is triggered by the secretion of ACTH from the anterior lobe of the pituitary. 1  travelling through the body in the blood. 2  entering from the blood into all cells. 3  binding to their receptor â a protein present in the cytoplasm and/or nucleus of target cells. 4  The hormone-receptor complex binds to a second to form a ...ineralocorticoids. The mineralocorticoids get their name from their effect on mineral metabolism. The most important of them is the steroid aldosterone. Aldosterone acts on the kidney promoting the reabsorption of sodium ions (Na +) into the blood. Water follows the salt and this helps maintain normal blood pressure.
