    Transcript

    00:01 Welcome to pharmacology by Lecturio. I am Dr. PJ Shukle. Today we are going to be talking about adrenal pharmocology.

    00:10 Let's take a look at the adrenal gland. I have represented it stylistically with a triangle.

    00:15 There are four major regions of the adrenal gland.

    00:19 There is the zona glomerulosa which is responsible for mineralocorticoid function.

    00:25 There is the zona fasciculata which is responsible for glucocorticoid function.

    00:30 There is the zona reticularis which is responsible for adrenal androgen production.

    00:36 And finally, there is the adrenal medulla which is responsible for catecholamines.
