Tumors tend to occur in the limbs of large and giant breed dogs. Osteosarcoma tumors can spread from the bone to distant sites in the body, including the lungs, lymph nodes, and other bones. This type of cancer is painful, and amputation of the affected limb is necessary to provide relief.
At the center of the adrenal glands we see the adrenal medulla. This portion of the gland is stimulated by the sympathetic nervous system to secrete catecholamines, which are hormones that help you deal with short-term stress. There are two catecholamines. One is called epinephrine or adrenaline.
Video: Adrenal Glands: Epinephrine, Norepinephrine & Stress Adaptation The adrenal medulla is the central portion of the adrenal gland. In this lesson, you will learn about the two hormones secreted by the adrenal medulla - epinephrine and norepinephrine - and how they help you deal with short-term stressors.
