Despite being regarded as the most common toxicological target in the
endocrine system, the adrenal gland has often been neglected in
regulatory testing. Adrenal Toxicology addresses the increased
interest in adrenocortical toxicology and the need for a resource
that makes techniques available to examine adrenal endocrine
disruption. Examining current techniques and the latest advancements,
Adrenal Toxicology reviews the endocrinology, pharmacology, pathology
and toxicology of the adrenal gland. This text provides information
on the range of drugs and chemicals that affect adrenocortical
function and suggests standardized approaches for in vivo and in
vitro assessment. This volume also presents recent developments in
the molecular mechanisms of toxicity to the adrenal cortex and
medulla, and considers environmental adrenal endocrine disruption in
sentinel species.
