Vascular and hormonal interactions in the adrenal gland
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2022 Primary aldosteronism is the most common form of secondary arterial hypertension, due to excessive aldosterone production from the adrenal gland. Although somatic mutations have been identified in aldosterone producing adenoma, the exact mechanisms ...

Carcinoma of the Adrenal Cortex [PDF]
Cancer, 1980 Adrenal cortical carcinoma is a rare tumor that affects all ages and sexes and has a dismal prognosis. Half are functional, half are not. Early stages are uncommon and are detected by their endocrine effects, usually in females, as incidental findings at surgery or on computed tomography scans.

A histological study on the developing adrenal gland in human fetuses
National Journal of Clinical Anatomy, 2021 Background: Adrenal gland has an outer cortex and inner medulla that vary structurally, functionally, and embryologically. The developing gland plays a major role in concordance development of various viscera of the fetus and in parturition.

The involvement of Nek2 and Notch in the proliferation of rat adrenal cortex triggered by POMC-derived peptides. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The adrenal gland is a dynamic organ that undergoes constant cell turnover. This allows for rapid organ remodeling in response to the physiological demands of the HPA axis, which is controlled by proopiomelanocortin (POMC)-derived peptides, such as ...

Heterotopic adrenal gland in undescendent testis – Case report
Urology Case Reports, 2019 Heterotopic adrenal cortex is usually found in the kidney, retroperitoneum and spermatic cord. The adrenal gland has a dual embryonic origin: the cortex arises from the mesoderm and the medulla from ectoderm of the neural crest. Adrenal cortex and gonads

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 ...

Characterization of Group I Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors in Rat and Human Adrenal Glands
Frontiers in Physiology, 2020 Glutamate and its receptors have been demonstrated to promote both basal and nicotine-evoked catecholamine release in bovine chromaffin cells. Multiple glutamate receptors, including metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs), are found in the adrenal ...

Post-Mortem Immunohistochemical Evidence of β2-Adrenergic Receptor Expression in the Adrenal Gland [PDF]
, 2019 The evidence from post-mortem biochemical studies conducted on cortisol and catecholamines suggest that analysis of the adrenal gland could provide useful information about its role in human pathophysiology and the stress response.
