    The document discusses the adrenal gland and its role in regulating various metabolic processes in the body. It outlines the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and how hormones signal the adrenal gland to release catecholamines like epinephrine and norepinephrine. A diagram shows the pathways and effects of these catecholamines on processes such as gluconeogenesis, glycogenolysis, and lipid metabolism.
