Contribution of the adrenal gland to the production of androstenedione and testosterone during the first two years of life [PDF]
, 1986 Androstenedione and testosterone were measured in whole adrenal glands of 56 previously healthy boys who died suddenly between birth and 2 yr of age. In each adrenal gland, the concentration of androstenedione considerably exceeded that of testosterone ...

Intracellular Electrochemical Nanomeasurements Reveal that Exocytosis of Molecules at Living Neurons is Subquantal and Complex [PDF]
Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Wiley-VCH Verlag, 2020,
59 (17), pp.6711-6714, 2020 Since the early work of Bernard Katz, the process of cellular chemical communication via exocytosis, quantal release, has been considered to be all or none. Recent evidence has shown exocytosis to be partial or 'subquantal' at single-cell model systems, but there is a need to understand this at communicating nerve cells.

A Very Rare Reason for Hyperandrogenism: Adrenal Tumor Case
Bagcilar Medical Bulletin, 2023 Adrenal tumors are very rare causes of hyperandrogenism. Androgensecreting adrenal tumors are usually malignant; however, benign tumors have also been described in women. Adrenocortical carcinoma is very rare with incidence of 1 2 million per year.

Microelectrode arrays of diamond-insulated graphitic channels for real time detection of exocytotic events from cultured chromaffin cells and slices of adrenal glands [PDF]
Analytical Chemistry 88, 7493-7499 (2016), 2016 A microstructured graphitic 4x4 multielectrode array was embedded in a single crystal diamond substrate (4x4 {uG-SCD MEA) for real-time monitoring of exocytotic events from cultured chromaffin cells and adrenal slices. The current approach relies on the development of a parallel ion beam lithographic technique, which assures the time effective ...

Localisation of the melanocortin-2-receptor and its accessory proteins in the developing and adult adrenal gland [PDF]
, 2011 The melanocortin-2-receptor (MC2R)/MC2R accessory protein (MRAP) complex is critical to the production of glucocorticoids from the adrenal cortex. Inactivating mutations in either MC2R or MRAP result in the clinical condition familial glucocorticoid ...

Minimal Effects of Rearing Enrichments on Pullet Behaviour and Welfare
Animals, 2020 In Australia, free-range pullets are typically reared indoors, which may hinder later adjustment to outdoor access. Rearing enrichments could optimise pullet development.
