Corticosteroidogenesis by isolated human adrenal cells: effect of serotonin and serotonin antagonists.

K Rácz, I Wolf, R Kiss, G Lada, S Vida, E Gláz.   

Abstract

The direct effect of serotonin and antiserotonin agents on adrenal steroid biosynthesis was studied in isolated adrenal cells derived from patients with Cushing's syndrome. The results indicate that serotonin increases corticosterone production, while the serotonin antagonists cyproheptadine and methysergide depress adrenal steroid - particularly cortisol and aldosterone - biosynthesis.
