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...
