Correction to: Nature Reviews Endocrinology https://doi.org/10.1038/s41574-025-01091-2, published online 10 March 2025.

In the version of this article initially published, in the first paragraph of the section “Establishment of stem and progenitor cell populations”, in the sentence now reading “Indeed, activation of Cre recombinase by tamoxifen injection in reporter (WT1–CreERT2:mTmG) mice at E12.5 or E14.5 labels a large proportion of capsular cells by E18.5, and GFP expression is retained within both capsular and SF1⁺ cortical cells after seven months, consistent with a WT1⁺ stem cell pool that is retained long-term¹⁴”, the text originally read “Indeed, the activation of Cre recombinase by tamoxifen injection to induce the expression of WT1 in reporter (WT1–CreERT2:mTmG) mice…”. In the second paragraph of the “Paracrine and endocrine modulation of SHH⁺ progenitor cell fate” section, in the sentence now reading “Similarly, transgenic mice with an inducible knockout of capsular RSPO3 were treated with tamoxifen at 12 weeks of age to investigate the homeostatic role of capsular WNT signals³¹,” the text originally read “Similarly, transgenic mice expressing an inducible form of RSPO3…”. In the first paragraph of the “Context-dependent and sex-specific plasticity in zona fasciculata renewal” section, in the sentence now reading “Similarly, treatment with the SMO inhibitor LDE225 leads to a delayed return of normal corticosterone levels, while Gli1-CreERT2:SmoM2 mice…”, CreERT2:SmoM2 appeared originally as “SmoM2”. In the first two sentences in the paragraph under the heading “Adrenocortical homeostasis” original reference 41 has been changed to 42, while in Table 1, current ref. 91 did not originally appear as a supporting citation. In the references list, ref. 97, Buonocore, F. & Achermann, J.C. Primary adrenal insufficiency: New genetic causes and their long-term consequences. Clin. Endocrinol. (Oxf) 92, 11–20 (2020), now replaces Holmes, L. A survey of bar coding in Canadian teaching hospitals. Dimens. Health Serv. 64, 23–25 (1987), while ref. 150, Narumi, S. et al. SAMD9 mutations cause a novel multisystem disorder, MIRAGE syndrome, and are associated with loss of chromosome 7. Nat. Genet. 48, 792–797 (2016), now replaces Hobeika, C. et al. Day surgery for acute appendicitis in adults: a prospective series of 102 patients. Surg. Laparosc. Endosc. Percutan. Tech. 27, 158–162 (2017) (formerly ref. 149). In the fourth paragraph of the “Stem cell niche dysregulation and adrenal cancer” section, references from 83 onward were listed incorrectly. The text and reference sequence are now amended in the HTML and PDF versions of the article.
