adrenal cortex

Preferred Label : adrenal cortex;

Uberon definition : the thick outer layer of the adrenal gland that produces and secretes steroid hormones such as corticosterone, estrone and aldosterone;

Uberon synonym : cortex of adrenal gland; cortex of suprarenal gland; suprarenal cortex; cortex (glandula suprarenalis); adrenal gland cortex;

Uberon related term : suprarenal;

Uberon Homology note : All craniates have groups of cells homologous to the mammalian adrenocortical and chromaffin tissues (medulla), but they are scattered in and near the kidneys in fishes. (...) The cortical and chromaffin tissues come together to form adrenal glands in tetrapods.[well established][VHOG];

Uberon Taxon note : Kardong states that mammals are the first to have distinct cortext and medulla, but this contradicts XAO;
