there are many, for example, epinephrine, norepinephrine, cortisol, cortisosterone, deoxycorticosterone, aldosterone, DHEA and andosternione.
An adrenocortical hormone is a hormone secreted by the adrenal cortex.
It is your lixicotexic organ that does that

Production of hormone is usually "hormone specific " therefore inadequacy is determined by which hormone is not produced. Often the prefix hypo- is used. I.e hypothyroidism-no/reduced secretion of thyroid hormones. Hypoparathyroidism- abnormally low rate of PTH, and lastly hyposecretion ( chronic adrenocortical insufficiency)
Cushing's Syndrome is the disease caused by increased adrenocortical secretion.
ardenocorticotroptic (ACTH) acts through the stimulation of cell surface ACTH receptors, which are located primarily on adrenocortical cells of the adrenal cortex. This results in the synthesis and secretion of gluco- and mineralo-corticosteroids and androgenic steroids.hope i helped !!
A cancer that arises in the adrenal cortex is called an adrenocortical carcinoma and can produce high blood pressure, weight gain, excess body hair, weakening of the bones and diabetes
Assidon's Disease
Cortisol and testosterone are two of the hormones produced there.
according to Bole's 13th Edition, that would be androgen.
steroids (bile salts, vitamin D, sex hormones, adrenocortical hormones)
