Abstract excerpt
Functions of adrenal medulla, particularly synthesis of catecholamine, are under the control of glucocorticoids produced by the cortex. To further investigate whether development/differentiation of the adrenal medulla is associated with proper organization of the adrenal cortex, we examined development of the medulla in four different mouse models with various defects in the adrenal cortex. By using the Sf1/Cre...
