The adult cortex has 3 distinct layers [or zones].
The subcapsular area is called the zona glomerulosa and is associated
with the production of mineralocortocoids.
Next is zona fasciculata, which with the zona reticularis, produces
glucocorticoids and androgenes.
![Page 4: Hormones & related bio signaling compounds (Part 2)](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050914/5a64d24a7f8b9adf788b4a4f/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The glucocorticoids are 21-carbon steroids with many
actions, the most important of which is to promote
gluconeogenesis.
Cortisol is the predominant glucocorticoid in humans, and is made in
the zona fasciculata.
Corticosterone, made in the zonae fasciculata and glomerulosa, is less
abundant in humans.

STEROIDS nomenclature1
All steroid hormone have the
CYCLOPENTANOPERHYDROPHENANTRENE –
17-carbone structure with the 4 rings labeled A-D
Additional carbons (C18 and
C19) can be added at
positions 10 and 13 or as a
side chain attached to C17
(C20–C27).

STEROIDS nomenclature3
The nuclear substitutions in
the same plane as these
groups are designated ‘cis’or
‘β’ and represented in
drawings by solid lines.
Substitutions that project
behind the plane of the ring
system are designated ‘trans’
or ‘α’ and are presented asa
dashed line.
The angular methyl groups
(C18 and C19) at possition 10
and 13 project in front of the
ring system and serve as the
point of reference.

The Mineralocorticoids are 21-carbon steroids.
The primary action, of these mineralocorticoid hormones is
to promote retention of Na+ and excretion of K+ and H+,
particularly in the kidney.
Aldosterone is the most potent hormone in this class, and it made
exclusively in zona glomerulosa.
![Page 16: Hormones & related bio signaling compounds (Part 2)](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050914/5a64d24a7f8b9adf788b4a4f/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Synthesis of aldosterone follows the mineralocorticoid
pathway and occurs in the zona glomerulosa.
Pregnenolone is converted to progesterone by the action of 2 smooth endoplasmatic
reticulum enzymes, 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase and Δ5,4 isomerase.
Progesterone is hydroxylated at the C21 position (by 21α-hydroxylase) to form 11-
deoxycorticosterone (chemical name: 21-hydroxy-4-pregnene-3,20-dione), which is an active (Na+-
retaining) mineralocorticoid. The next hydroxylation, at C11 (by 11β-hydroxylase),
produces corticosterone, which has glucocorticoid activity and is a weak
mineralocorticoid (it has less than 5% of the potency of aldosterone). In some species
(eg. rodents), it is the most potent glucocorticoid. C21 hydroxylation is necessary for
both mineralocorticoid and glucocorticoid activity, but most steroids with a C17
hydroxyl group have more glucocorticoid and less mineralocorticoid action. In the
zona glomerulosa, which does not have the smooth endoplasmatic reticulum enzyme
17α-hydroxylase, a mitochondrial 18-hydroxylase is present. The 18-hydroxylase acts
on corticosterone to form 18-hydroxycorticosterone, which is changed to aldosterone by
the conversion of the 18-alcohol to an aldehyde. This unique distribution of enzymes
and the special regulation of the zona glomeruloza have been led some investigators to
suggest that, in addition to the adrenal being 2 glands, the adrenal cortex is actually 2
separate organs.

Glucocorticoid synthesis.
Cortisol synthesis requires 3 hydroxylases that act sequentially on the C17, C21, and C11
positions. The first 2 reactions are rapid, while C11 hydroxylation is relatively slow. If
the C21 position is hydroxylated first, the action of 17α-hydroxylase is impeded and the
mineralocorticoid pathway is followed (forming corticosterone or aldosterone,
depending on the cell type). 17α-hydroxylase is a smooth endoplasmatic reticulum
enzyme that acts upon either progesterone or, more commonly, pregnenolone. 17α-
hydroxyprogesterone is hydroxylated at C21 to form 11-deoxycortisol, which is then
hydroxylated C11 to form cortisol, the most potent naturalglucocorticoid hormone in
humans. The 21-hydroxylase is a smooth endolasmatic reticulum enzyme, whereas the
11β-hydroxylase is a mitochondrial enzyme. Steroidogenesis thus involves the repeated
shutting of substrates into and out of the mitochondria of the fasciculata and reticularis
cells.

Androgen precursor Dehydroepiandrosterone and weak
androgen androstenedione are produced in zona fasticulata
and reticularis of the adrenal cortex.
These steroids are converted into more potent androgens in
extraadrenal tissues and become pathologic sources of androgens
when specific steroidogenic enzymes are deficient.
Estrogenes are not made in the normal adrenal in significant amounts,
but in certain cancers of the adrenal they may be produced, and
androgens of adrenal origin are important precursors of estrogen
(converted by peripherial aromatization) in postmenopausal women.
![Page 21: Hormones & related bio signaling compounds (Part 2)](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050914/5a64d24a7f8b9adf788b4a4f/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Androgen synthesis.
The major androgen or androgen precursors produced by the adrenal cortex is
dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA). Most 17-hydroxypregnenolone follows the
glucocorticoid pathway, but a small fraction is subjected to oxidative fission and
removal of the 2-carbon side chain through the action of 17,20-lyase. This enzyme is
found in the adrenals and gonads and acts exclusively on 17α-hydroxy-containing
molecules. Adrenal androgen production increases markedly if glucocorticiod
biosynthesis is impressed by the lack of one of the hydroxylases. Most DHEA is
rapidly modified by the addition of sulfate, about half of which occurs in the adrenal
and the rest in the liver. DHEA sulfate is inactive, but removal of the sulfate results in
reactivation. DHEA is really a prohormone, since the actions of 3β-hydroxysteroid
dehydrogenase and Δ5,4 isomerase convert the weak androgen DHEA into the more
potent androstenedione. Small amounts of androstenedione are also formed in the
adrenal by the action of the lyase on 17α-hydroxyprogesterone. Reduction of
androstenedione at the C17 position results in the formation of testosterone, the most
potent adrenal androgen. Small amount of testosterone are produced in the adrenal by
this mechanism, but most of this conversion occurs in other tissues. Small amounts of
other steroids can be isolated from adrenal venous blood, including 11-
deoxycortisterone, progesterone, pregnelone, 17α-hydroxyprogesterone, and a very
small amount of estradiol (from the aromatization of testosterone). None of these
amounts are important in relation to production from other glands, however.

Each cell of body receive constant input from membrane
proteins that act as information receptors
These membrane proteins sampling the surrounding
medium (controlled by homeostasis regulators) for pH,
osmotic strength, temperature, availability of energy sources
(compounds can be reduced) and oxygen (oxidative agents).
That all can be concern as receiving signals from outer
space for further action, its quality, amount, and force.
Cell action can be also concerned as a kind of biosignal
which is informing other cells about local states of tissue as
the signals can be concerned as local hormons
(paracrinic [neighbourhood cells], autocrinic [just on itself])

Leukotrienes – are synthesized by leucocites, mast cells, also
by sells of lung, heart, spleen due to lipoxygenase
(A4, B5, C4, D4, E4)
Slow-reacting substance of anaphylaxis – up to 1000 times
more potent than histamine or prostoglandins in its action as
stimulant of allergic reactions. Leucotriens are implicated in
asthma, inflammatory reactions, hypersensivity (allergy) and
heart attacks.
Leukotrienes cause contraction of smooth muscles
(bronchoconstriction, vasoconstriction, adhesion of white
blood cells and release of lysosomal enzymes).
