The adrenal gland and primary aldosteronism: anatomy, steroidogenesis, regulation, and genetic insights [PDF]
The adrenal glands play an essential role in maintaining homeostasis through the secretion of steroid hormones. Among these, aldosterone, a mineralocorticoid produced in the zona glomerulosa (ZG) of the adrenal cortex, regulates fluid balance and blood ...

CLINICAL CASE OF 19-YEARS-OLD PATIENT WITH CONGENITAL ADRENAL CORTEX DYSFUNCTION
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia is caused by partial or complete block of enzymatic systems involved in the synthesis of steroid hormones of the adrenal cortex and leading to reduced production of glucocorticoids.

Single-cell and spatial transcriptomics analysis of human adrenal aging
Objective: The human adrenal cortex comprises three functionally and structurally distinct layers that produce layer-specific steroid hormones. With aging, the human adrenal cortex undergoes functional and structural alteration or “adrenal aging ...

Adrenal cortex development and related disorders leading to adrenal insufficiency. [PDF]
The adult human adrenal cortex produces steroid hormones that are crucial for life, supporting immune response, glucose homeostasis, salt balance and sexual maturation. It consists of three histologically distinct and functionally specialized zones.

Cerebral larval infection presenting as delayed encephalopathy and nonconvulsive status epilepticus: a case report [PDF]
Adult cerebral Toxocara canis larval infections are rare. Humans are infected by contacting soil that contains infectious eggs or by eating undercooked meat. We encountered a patient with cerebral T. canis infection who showed recurrent altered mentality
