Hypertrophy of the adrenal cortex
Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1985The human adrenal cortex in essential hypertension and in the salt-losing form of the adrenogenital syndrome and the adrenal cortex in spontaneously hypertensive rats were studied by morphometry. Under long-term functional loading hypertrophy of adrenocortical cells is the common way of increasing the mass of the cortex.

The adrenal cortex and virilization
Clinics in Endocrinology and Metabolism, 1985The physiological control of adrenal androgen secretion has not been definitively established. However, there is evidence to suggest that a dexamethasone-suppressible factor other than ACTH may have a specific role to play. The majority of patients with idiopathic hirsutism (hirsutism associated with regular menstruation) have findings suggestive of ...

Adenohypophysis and Adrenal Cortex
Annual Review of Physiology, 1960The mammalian adrenal cortex secretes glucocorticoids, mineralocorti coids, androgens, and estrogens. This review is concerned with the adrenal synthesis of each of these classes of compounds and with the regulation of their secretion, metabolism, and excretion.

Clinical Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1980
The fetal adrenal cortex is the central steroid modulator in the fetal placental complex. Its anatomic structure and physiology clearly identify it as a uniquely fetal organ that undergoes atrophy to a fraction of its intrauterine size after birth and assumes markedly different steroidogenic functions on the assumption of extrauterine life.

Adenohypophysis and Adrenal Cortex
Annual Review of Physiology, 1961This review of the functions of the adrenal cortex and the adenohypophy sis will be concerned mainly with the control of secretions from these glands and the mode of action of their hormones, with emphasis on the pertinent aspects of human physiology and patho-physiology.

Adenohypophysis and Adrenal Cortex
Annual Review of Physiology, 1959The pace and the emphasis have changed, in recent years, in work on the pituitary and adrenal cortex. The excitement of the 1949-1950 disco veries of new therapeutic uses of corticotropin and cortisone has subsided, and in its place one finds a new focus of attention on the control of the function of the adenohyp ophysis.

The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1966
Hitherto unrecorded “atrophic” changes are described in the zona glomerulosa of both adrenals from a patient with a unilateral cortical adenoma. It is suggested that the adenoma was secreting aldosterone at approximately the correct physiological rate permitting the ipsilateral and contralateral zona glomerulosa to atrophy without causing clinical ...

Experimental Gerontology, 1998
Aging in humans is accompanied by an increase in adrenal glucocorticoid secretion and a decline in adrenal androgen synthesis and secretion. The intense interest in adrenal function in aging individuals in recent years is in large measure related to the potential impact of cortisol excess in the development of cognitive impairment and hippocampal ...
