Significant differences between men and women are observed in terms of prevalence to adrenal cortical diseases. In particular, women are up to 6 times more likely than men to develop tumors of the adrenal cortex. Despite those striking disparity, differences and similarities in adrenal cortex renewal between sexes have yet to be investigated. The adrenal gland is a vital organ maintaining body homeostasis through the secretion of steroid hormones. It is composed of two endocrine glands, the medulla and the cortex, that is further divided into concentric zones, from the outer to the inner: the zona glomerulosa, the zona fasciculata and a zona reticularis in human or an X-zone in mice. The cortex is surrounded by a capsule that is further env...
