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 ...

Adrenal Steroidogenesis and Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia [PDF]
Endocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, 2015 Adrenal steroidogenesis is a dynamic process, reliant on de novo synthesis from cholesterol, under the stimulation of ACTH and other regulators. The syntheses of mineralocorticoids (primarily aldosterone), glucocorticoids (primarily cortisol), and adrenal androgens (primarily dehydroepiandrosterone and its sulfate) occur in separate adrenal cortical ...
