Published 06/22/2023 What is the adrenal medulla vs cortex derived from?
Published 06/22/2023 The zona {{c1::glomerulosa}} of the adrenal gland secretes {{c2::aldosterone}} which salt regulation to increase Na reabsorption in the DCT.
Published 06/22/2023 What is aldosterone secretion stimulated by?

Published 06/22/2023 The zona {{c1::reticularis}} secretes {{c2::weak androgens}} and is stimulated by {{c2::ACTH}} with regulatory feedback.
Published 06/22/2023 What do chromaffin cells in the adrenal medulla secrete? What is it therefore innervated by?
Published 06/22/2023 What do alpha, beta, delta, PP(F), and epsilon cells secrete in the pancreas? Where are each located (as given in lecture)?
Published 06/22/2023 What do pinealocytes secrete?
