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.

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.

Steroids, 1967
This multiple-authored volume attempts to cover the adrenal cortex as viewed by the chemist, the physiologist, the anatomist, and the clinician. Thus, it may truly be said that it has something for everyone, although it might be criticized, as have other similar volumes, for the discontinuity of style resulting.

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.

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.

, 1975 Secretions of the adrenal cortex are intimately involved in several aspects of functions of the reproductive system (Forsham, 1969; Bondy, 1969; Bacchus, 1969; Baxter and Forsham, 1972). The participation includes actions of adrenal hormones on the biologic activity of gonadal hormones on their target organs (e.g., permissive action of cortical ...

The adrenal gland has two main layers: the cortex and the medulla. The cortex in turn has three layers. The outermost zona glomerulosa makes aldosterone; the middle zona fasciculata makes glucocorticoids; the inner zona reticularis makes adrenal androgens. The chemical structures of these hormones and their synthesis are traced. Regulation of secretion

Written by the chairman of the Department of Medicine at the University of Southern California, the monograph begins with fetal development, guides the reader through biochemical formulas and pathways, covers hormonal pathophysiology, and ends with clinical concepts. A brief historical background pays tribute to the pioneers in the field.
