Yes. ACTH = AdrenoCorticoTropic Hormone. It acts on the Fasciculata and Reticulata areas of the adrenal cortex, stimulating the release of Glucocorticoids (Cortisol) and to a lesser degree, of weak Androgens.
Sympathetic stimulation of the chromaffmin cells of the adrenal medulla stimulates the release of their catecholamines. The neurotransmitter is acetylcholine
ACTH _____Triggers secretion of adrenal cortex hormones
Adrenocorticotropic hormone
The simple answer would be estrogens. In reality, however, the adrenal glands produce actual estrogens in minute amounts only. Instead, they release the precursor molecules of the sex hormones into the bloodstream, and the gonads - testes or ovaries - convert these into testosterone and estrogens, respectively.
There are two adrenal glands, one on top of each kidney, and they both have regions that release different hormones. The adrenal cortex, which is the bigger region, releases three different hormones: mineralocorticoids (affect mineral homeostasis), glucocorticoids (affect glucose homeostasis), and androgens (male sex hormones. The other region, the adrenal medulla, produces epinephrine and norepinephrine, which set the fight or flight response into motion and help the body resist stress.

ACTH. Isn't Mastering a blast?

The adrenocorticotropic hormone, that is released from the anterior pituitary gland is responsible for the release of hormones from the adrenal gland. The adrenal cortex hormones are essential for the survival of the individual. They make you able to face the stresses of life.
stimulates the release of thyroid stimulating hormones
They release hormones (three different kinds) in response to stress.
no. glucogon, the hormone that stimulates this activity, is released by the islets of Langerhans in the pancreas.
Adrenal glands produces four type of hormones: Catecholamine, Aldosterone, Cortisol and Androgens like Testosterone.
histamine
The adrenal glands release adrenaline, the hormone most often associated with the fight or flight response and danger.
