abstract：:Leptin, the product of the ob gene, is an adipose-tissue secreted hormone, which regulates satiety, metabolic rate and thermogenesis. Many lines of evidence suggest the existence of mutual relationships between leptin and adrenal-cortex secretion, but in vivo studies gave rather conflicting results. Therefore, we have...

abstract：:The secretory activity of the adrenal gland is mainly regulated by peptidergic hormones (ACTH, angiotensin II) and ions. However, there is now increasing evidence that local factors, including neuropeptides and neurotransmitters, can also participate in the control of adrenocortical cells. In particular, serotonin (5-...
