| 31. | Adrenocorticotropic hormone ( ACTH ) stimulates the adrenal cortex to release corticosteroids.
|
| 32. | ACTH causes the adrenal glands to then release cortisol into the blood.
|
| 33. | The expression of AgRP in the adrenal gland is regulated by glucocorticoids.
|
| 34. | Cortisol is a hormone secreted by the cortex of the adrenal glands.
|
| 35. | In rare cases, adrenal cortex tumours are also seen.
|
| 36. | It is proper to continue with the diagnosis of secondary adrenal insufficiency.
|
| 37. | Steroid hormones are synthesized from cholesterol within the adrenal cortex.
|
| 38. | ACTH induces the release of corticosteriods and aldosterone from the adrenal gland.
|
| 39. | But as people age, the adrenals produce less.
|
| 40. | Corticosteroids are hormones produced naturally in the outer layer of the adrenal gland.
