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-...
