| adrenoleukodystrophy |
An inherited metabolic disorder in which the myelin sheath on nerve fibres is lost and the adrenal gland degenerates, which leads to progressive neurological disability and death. People with adrenoleukodystrophy accumulate high levels of very-long-chain fatty acids in their brain and adrenal cortex, because the fatty acids are not broken down in a normal manner.

| adrenal gland |
The endocrine organs that produce adrenalin (epinephrine) in humans. They also produce many other biochemical substances (norepinephrine, and steroids). Nausicaan adrenal glands produce a unique odor. "Adrenal" can mean "near the kidneys", so it could be that the Nausicaan glands produce biochemicals similar to the human ones or simply that they are located near the kidneys.
