The adrenals were first described by Eustachius in 1563 but it was not until 1855 that Addison, an English physician, published a clue as to their function. He was able to associate a certain group of symptoms with disease of these glands. Fatigue, pigmentation and digestive disturbances were most prominent. His observations focused attention on the vital nature of these organs. Very soon it was proven by experi-ments on animals that the adrenals are necessary for life. The next important contribution came in 1894 when Oliver and Schafer demonstrated that an extract of the adrenal produced a marked rise in blood pressure. This was due to a substance obtained from the central part or medulla of the gland. Abel isolated the benzoyl compound o...
