A functional study on novel genes involved in regulating aldosterone secretion in normal human zona glomerulosa and in aldosterone-producing adenomas
… to the histological resemblance to normal zona glomerulosa (ZG) and zona fasciculata (ZF), underlying somatic mutations (KCNJ5 commonly found in ZF-like, CACN1AD, ATP1A1, ATP2B3, CTNNB1 in ZG-like APAs), and transcriptome profile. It is unknown if the process of tumorigenesis differs …

The Effects of Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide on Adrenal Steroid Hormone Secretion
… the rat adrenal cortex in close association with zona glomerulosa cells (Holzwarth, 1984). We have studied the effects of VIP on steroid hormone secretion from the outer zones of the normal rat adrenal cortex. Intact capsule-glomerulosa preparations, consisting of the capsule, zona glomerulosa, …

Sympathetic Innervation of the Rat Adrenal Cortex and Its Effects on the Compensatory Adrenal Cortical Growth Response to Unilateral Adrenalectomy (Catecholamine, Endocrine, Splanchnic Nerve, Cell Proliferation)
… in arterial plexuses and distribute among zona glomerulosa cells. Ultrastructurally, axonal varicosities containing small (30-60 nm) dense-cored vesicles abut on glomerulosa cells and blood vessels. This innervation was eliminated after neonatal sympathectomy with guanethidine or …

Cloning and characterization of organic anion systems in the adrenal cortex and their role in steroid release
… ROAT1, intense signal was observed in the outer zona fasciculata, while oatp3 and OCT2 mRNAs were clearly shown to be expressed in the zona glomerulosa. The oatp1- and oatp2-specific probes produced signals in single cells or small groups of cells in the inner zona fasciculata and zona …

Investigating the maintenance of the mouse definitive adrenal cortex
… and functionally distinct zones: the outer zona glomerulosa (zG), the zona fasciculata (zF), and the innermost zona reticularis (zR). In rodents, zG cells produce mineralocorticoids (mainly aldosterone), while zF cells secrete glucocorticoids (mainly corticosterone). The functions of zG and …

Role of two genes, CACNA1D and CADM1, with common or rare mutations in aldosterone producing adenomas of the adrenal.
… domain. High expression of CADM1 in zona glomerulosa (ZG) was found, the site of aldosterone synthesis in the adrenal cortex and in the APAs, as well as the aldosterone producing cell clusters (APCCs) within the ZG. In vitro experiments using H295R cells showed both mutations in CADM1 …

The cytology of adrenocortical regeneration in the rat and the effects of x-irradiation
… immediate transplantation. The cells of the zona glomerulosa survived after implantation and underwent a series of transformations which resulted in the production of a fully differentiated cortex by the twenty-first day. The transformations involved characteristic changes in the nuclei and …
