Features of Remodeling of the Adrenal Glands Under the Influence of Endo- and Exopathogenic Factors
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: One of the main links of the body's adaptation system, sensitive to the action of various types of exo- and endogenous factors, is the adrenal glands. The body's response to acute stress is mediated by the effects of the sympatho-adrenal system, while the most important component of the endocrine response to chronic stress is the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical system. An analysis of sources of scientific literature has been done, the results of which indicate that under the influence of factors of different genesis, including other endocrine diseases, significant structural and functional changes occur in the adrenal glands of rats, which is a confirmation of their adaptation-compensatory mechanisms in response to stress.
