Abstract

T. Addison [3], published 100 years before the discovery of aldosterone (1954), described a fatal syndrome caused by destruction of the adrenal cortex caused by the tuberculosis process. It was an incentive for an intensive study of the physiology of the adrenal glands. The end of the 30s was crowned with fundamental success: a glucocorticoid group of steroids was isolated from the cortical layer of the adrenal glands and their chemical structure was deciphered. Recognition deserves first of all the Swiss group of scientists - prof. Reichstein and its employees Wettstein, Neher and Euw. Group prof. Kendall (USA) also successfully carried out similar work and published similar results a little later.
