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 ...

The effects of acute heat stress on proliferative and apoptotic processes in the rat adrenal cortex [PDF]

Archives of Biological Sciences, 2013
Hyperthermia can cause significant structural and functional reorganization of tissues and organs. The proliferative and apoptotic processes of rat adrenal cortex were analyzed by light and electron microscopy after an acute exposure to high ambient ...

The adrenal cortex and life [PDF]

Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology, 2009
The template for our understanding of the physiological role of the adrenal cortex was set by Hans Selye, who demonstrated its key involvement in the response to stress, of whatever origin, and who also introduced the terms glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid.

Gene array analysis of adrenal glands in broiler chickens following ACTH treatment [PDF]

, 2009
Difference in adaptability responses to stress has been observed amongst bird species, strains, and individuals. Components of the HPA axis, one of the internal systems involved in homeostasis re-establishment following stress, could play a role in this ...

Pediatric Adrenal Insufficiency: Diagnosis, Management, and New Therapies

International Journal of Pediatrics, 2018
Adrenal insufficiency may result from a wide variety of congenital or acquired disorders of hypothalamus, pituitary, or adrenal cortex. Destruction or dysfunction of the adrenal cortex is the cause of primary adrenal insufficiency, while secondary ...

The Hormone of the Adrenal Cortex

Science, 1930
We have previously1 demonstrated that an extract which will definitely prolong the lives and ameliorate the symptoms of adrenal-ectomized cats can be made from the adrenal cortex.We have proposed t...

Androgen receptor signalling in the male adrenal facilitates X-zone regression, cell turnover and protects against adrenal degeneration during ageing [PDF]

, 2019
Androgens are known to be an essential regulator of male health. Androgen receptor (AR) is widely expressed throughout the adrenal cortex, yet the wider role for androgen signalling in the adrenal remains underexplored. To investigate AR-dependent and AR-

Nonclassic lipoid congenital adrenal hyperplasia masquerading as familial glucocorticoid deficiency [PDF]

, 2009
Context: Familial glucocorticoid deficiency (FGD) is an autosomal recessive disorder resulting from resistance to the action of ACTH on the adrenal cortex.

The adrenal cortex and the kidney

Kidney International, 1974
The adrenal cortex regulates renal function in a number of important ways; indeed, normal renal function cannot be understood without recognition of such regulation. Well-recognized examples of such regulation are the control of body fluid tonicity through regulation of urinary solute concentration-a function controlled “primarily” by vasopressin, but ...

Addiction and the adrenal cortex [PDF]

Endocrine Connections, 2013
Substantial evidence shows that the hypophyseal–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis and corticosteroids are involved in the process of addiction to a variety of agents, and the adrenal cortex has a key role. In general, plasma concentrations of cortisol (or corticosterone in rats or mice) increase on drug withdrawal in a manner that suggests correlation with ...
