TLDR
By aerobic incubation of Cortexone with homogenates of beef adrenals the new 18-Hydroxy-cortexone as well as the already known 19-hydroxy-compound are obtained and the implications of the presence of an 18-hydroxylase for the postulated course of biosynthesis of aldosterone in vitro are discussed.

The effect of acth, renin, angiotensin ii, and various precursors on biosynthesis of aldosterone by adrenal slices

TL;DR: It will be shown that angiotensin II, like ACTH, does have such a direct effect, and renin does not, when compared with the effect of various precursors on the biosynthesis of aldosterone.

The Identification of the Porter-Silber Chromogen Secreted by the Rat Adrenal

TL;DR: Evidence is presented strongly suggesting that the unknown compound is the 20 ---f 18 cyclic hemiketal of 1% hydroxy-11-deoxycorticosterone, a steroid with a A4-3-ketone function but no ketone group at Cl1 and C17.

Biosynthesis of steroid hormones

TL;DR: The different pathways of biosynthesis are described, by which steroid hormones are produced in vivo in the gonads, the adrenal cortex and the placenta, or in vitro by corresponding tissue preparations, and compounds which block one or other of the biosynthetic steps are discussed.

Isolierung und Konstitutionsermittlung weiterer Pregnanverbindungen aus Nebennieren. Über Steroide, 144. Mitteilung

TL;DR: Nine additional compounds of the pregnane series have been isolated from adrenals and elucidation of their constitution showed that four are known compounds, but five are new.

[Constitution of aldosterone, a new mineralocorticoid].

TL;DR: Aldosterone as mentioned in this paper was suggested as a definitive name for the new crystalline mineralocorticoid provisionally called electrocortin and showed that this compound is 11β, 21dihydroxy-3, 20diketo-4pregnen-18-al.
