8.2. Isolation and characterization of adrenocortical progenitors involved in the adaptation to stress

C Steenblock , MF Rubin de Celis , LF Delgadillo Silva , V Pawolski , A Brennand , M Werdermann , I Berger , A Santambrogio , M Peitzsch , CL Andoniadou , AV Schally , SR Bornstein

To read the full abstract: Proc Natl Acad Sci USA. 2018; 115(51): 12997–13002.Humans are constantly challenged by multiple stressors, to which the body’s response and adaptation are essential. The adrenal gland plays a major role in the response to both physiological challenges and stress. Maintenance of the adrenal is partly accomplished by proliferation and differentiat...

To read the full abstract: Proc Natl Acad Sci USA. 2018; 115(52): E12265–E12274.The adrenal cortex plays a central role in regulating body homeostasis through the production of glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids that control many important physiologic functions, such as metabolism, inflammation and arterial blood pressure. The production of these hormones, known as steroid...
