1. The Adrenal Glands • Embedded above each kidney in a capsule of fat
• Composed of two endocrine organs
– Adrenal cortex
• Outer portion
• Secretes steroid hormones
– Adrenal medulla
• Inner portion
• Secretes catecholamines

1) Anatomy of the Adrenal Glands

-
• Adrenal cortex
– Consists of three layers or zones
• Zona glomerulosa – outermost layer
• Zona fasciculata – middle and largest portion
• Zona reticularis – innermost zone
– Categories of adrenal steroids
• Mineralocorticoids – Mainly aldosterone
– Influence mineral balance, specifically Na+ and K+ balance
• Glucocorticoids – Primarily cortisol
– Major role in glucose metabolism as well as in protein and lipid metabolism
• Sex hormones – Identical or similar to those produced by gonads
– Most abundant and physiologically important is dehydroepiandosterone (male “sex” hormone)

3. Control of Synthesis and Secretion
• Cortisol
– Stimulates hepatic gluconeogenesis
– Inhibits glucose uptake and use by many tissues, but not the brain
– Stimulates protein degradation in many tissues, especially muscle
– Facilitates lipolysis
– Plays key role in adaptation to stress
– At pharmacological levels, can have anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects
• Long-term use can result in unwanted side effects
– Displays a characteristic diurnal rhythm
– Secretion
• Regulated by negative-feedback loop involving hypothalamic CRH and pituitary ACTH

• Aldosterone
– Principal action site is on distal and collecting
tubules of the kidney
– Secretion is increased by
• Activation of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system
(RAAS) by factors related to a reduction in Na+ and a
fall in blood pressure
• Direct stimulation of adrenal cortex by rise in plasma
K+ concentration
– Regulation of aldosterone secretion is largely
independent of anterior pituitary control

An atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) or atrial
natriuretic factor (ANF) inhibits renal tubular
Na+ reabsorption
• Inhibits Na+ reabsorption
• Secreted by atria in response to being stretched
by Na+ retention, expansion of ECF volume, and
increase in arterial pressure
• Release promotes natriuretic, diuretic, and
hypotensive effects to help correct the original
stimulus that brought about release of ANP (or
ANF).

4. Circulation and Metabolism
• Transport proteins: reversibly bound to
• Cortisol:
- transcortin or corticosteroid-binding globulin (CBG)
- α2 globulin
- about 6%: unbound
- t½ : about 80 min
• Aldosterone:
- more than 50% of circulating aldosterone: unbound
- t½ : about 30 min

5. Physiological Roles • Cortisol
– Stimulates hepatic gluconeogenesis
– Inhibits glucose uptake and use by many tissues, but not the brain
– Stimulates protein degradation in many tissues, especially muscle
– Facilitates lipolysis
– Plays key role in adaptation to stress
– At pharmacological levels, can have anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects
• Long-term use can result in unwanted side effects
40
-
Fig. 15-18. Physiological effects of aldosterone on renal distal tubular Na+
resorption and K+ and H+ excretion. In response to aldosterone, sodium is actively
transported across the tubular serosal membrane into the peritubular space.
Potassium and hydrogen ions are passively shunted across the mucosal membrane
in exchange for sodium.
• Aldosterone
41

6. Mechanisms of Action • Aldosterone’s actions are mediated by intracellular
mineralocorticoid receptors.

• Physiological roles of adrenal androgens have
yet to be clarified.
• Secretes both male and female sex hormones in
both sexes
– Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA)
• Only adrenal sex hormone that has any biological
importance
• Overpowered by testicular testosterone in males
• Physiologically significant in females where it
governs
– Growth of pubic and axillary hair
– Enhancement of pubertal growth spurt
– Development and maintenance of female sex
drive

•성별로는 여자아이가 92.5%로 대부분임.
•성조숙증의 원인은 소아비만과 환경호르몬의 영향 등을 꼽음.
