Session Description
Dysregulation and aging of the adrenal gland can lead to hypercortisolism, affect androgen production and promote the development of adrenal tumors. This session will first focus on new insights into Cushing's syndrome due to GIP-dependent bilateral macronodular adrenal hyperplasia. Secondly, the role of sex steroid precursors and their changes in Cushings disease and syndrome will be discussed. Finally, the role of aging on adrenal function and tumorigenesis will be evaluated and possible anti-aging strategies will be reviewed.
