Adrenal gland
The interface between zona reticularis and adrenal medulla shows the medulla composed of chromaffin cells, modified sympathetic neurons. Some blood percolates through the cortical zones before entering the medulla. By this circulatory pattern, glucocorticoids influence norepinephrine synthesis in the chromaffin cells. 400x
