But you do not need your adrenal cortex spouting off all the time.

但是你不需要你肾上腺皮质一直。

That's because there's similarity between ovarian cells and cells of the adrenal cortex.

这是因为卵巢细胞与肾上腺皮质细胞有相似点。

The ACTH travels — again through the bloodstream — to the adrenal cortices of the adrenal glands on top of your kidneys.

促肾上腺皮质激素再次通过血液到达肾脏顶部肾上腺肾上腺皮质。

If autoimmune causes are suspected, testing for steroid cell antibodies, or StCAs, which react to adrenal cortex cells can be done.

如果怀疑是自身免疫原因，可以检测类固醇细胞抗体（StCAs），其对肾上腺皮质细胞有反应。

ACTH, then, travels to the pair of adrenal glands, on top of each kidney, where it specifically targets cells in the adrenal cortex.

ACTH之后被运输到个肾上方肾上腺，在此专门针对肾上腺皮质细胞。

Since that's the widest part of the adrenal cortex, it can have a measurable effect on the overall size of the adrenal gland.

因为此处是肾上腺最宽部分，这会对肾上腺在大小上造成可观影响。

In both adrenal adenomas and carcinomas, the cells of the zona fasciculata within the adrenal cortex start dividing abnormally and secrete excess cortisol.

在肾上腺腺瘤和肾上腺癌中，肾上腺皮质里束状带细胞开始异常分裂并分泌过多皮质醇。

The adrenal cortex is the outer part of the adrenal gland and is subdivided into three layers- the zona glomerulosa, the zona fasciculata, and the zona reticularis.

肾上腺皮质是肾上腺外层部分，皮质又分为三层：球状带、束状带和网状带。

When the ACTH binds to receptors on cells in an adrenal cortex, it triggers the release of a frenzy of different freak-out compounds known as glucocorticoid and mineralcorticoid hormones.

当促肾上腺皮质激素与肾上腺皮质细胞上受体结合时，它会引发不同反常化合物疯狂释放，这些化合物被称为糖皮质激素和矿物质皮质激素。

Second, cortisol starts cross-reacting with mineralocorticoid receptors, which normally only binds a related steroid hormone - mineralocorticoids which are secreted from the zona glomerulosa layer of the adrenal cortex.

第二，皮质醇对盐皮质激素受体产生交叉反应；此类受体一般只与一种相关类固醇激素结合，即从肾上腺皮质球状带层分泌盐皮质激素。
