Step 1
- The hormone that comes from the pituitary to promote the release of cortisol is adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). - The hormone coming from the hypothalamus that activates the release of ACTH is corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH). Show more…

What are the two main regions of the adrenal gland? What are the chromaffin cells controlled by? What do chromaffin cells produce, store and release? What is the function of epinephrine and norepinephrine? Describe the basic structure of epinephrine and norepinephrine. What are the 3 zones of the adrenal cortex called? What is the function of aldosterone and what stimulates its release? Describe the renin-angiotensin system. What is the function of cortisol? What stimulates its release? What hormones from the anterior pituitary affect the release adrenal gland hormones? What sex hormones are released from the adrenal gland? Terminology: adrenal medulla adrenal cortex chromaffin cells epinephrine norepinephrine catecholamine sympathetic nervous system zona glomerulosa zona fasciculata zona reticularis mineral corticoid aldosterone renin angiotensinogen angiotensin I angiotensin II angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) glucocorticoid cortisol adrenocorticotropin hormone (ACTH) corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) androgens
