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 ...

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

Growth and maintenance of the mouse adrenal cortex [PDF]
The adrenal cortex is classically divided into three morphologically and biochemically distinct zones, covered by a thin, cellular capsule. The adult adrenal cortex is a dynamic tissue in which distinct regions of cell proliferation, movement and death ...

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.

A pH/MMP dual‐responsive Bifidobacterium longum (BL) hydrogel (INPs@BL@Gel) functionalized with baicalin, tyrosine, and inulin is constructed. It enables gastric protection, inflammation‐targeted release, and prolonged intestinal colonization. By remodeling gut microbiota, elevating beneficial neuroactive metabolites (homovanillic acid, short‐chain ...
