However, together with other data on neuroendocrine properties of zona glomerulosa cells, NCAM expression may reflect a neuroendocrine differentiation of these cells.

The "'zona glomerulosa "'of the adrenal gland is the most superficial layer of the adrenal cortex, lying directly beneath the renal capsule.

Moreover, aldosterone synthase is found within the zona glomerulosa at the outer edge of the adrenal cortex; 11?-hydroxylase is found in the zona fasciculata and zona glomerulosa.

The angiotensin II-stimulated aldosterone released from the zona glomerulosa of the adrenal glands has an effect on particularly the epithelial cells of the distal convoluted tubules and collecting ducts of the kidneys.
18.
Aldosterone is produced in the zona glomerulosa of the cortex of the adrenal gland and its secretion is mediated principally by angiotensin II but also by adrenocorticotrophic hormone ( ACTH ) and local potassium levels.
19.
The extracellular potassium ion ( K + ) concentration is sensed by the zona glomerulosa cells of the outer layer of the adrenal cortex, as well as, probably, by sensors in the carotid arteries.
20.
Recent data suggest that adrenocortical cells under physiological conditions show neuroendocrine properties; within the normal adrenal, this neuroendocrine differentiation seems to be restricted to cells of the zona glomerulosa and might be important for an autocrine regulation of adrenocortical function.
