Luteinizing hormone receptor knockout mouse: What has it taught us?

open access: yesAndrology, Volume 14, Issue 4, Page 1017-1028, May 2026.
Abstract Luteinizing hormone (LH), along with its agonist choriongonadotropin (hCG) in humans, is the key hormone responsible for the tropic regulation of the gonadal function. LH and hCG act through their cognate receptor, the luteinizing hormone/choriongonadotropin receptor (LHCGR; more appropriately LHR in rodents lacking CG), located in the testis ...

A Zebrafish Acromegaly Model Elevates DNA Damage and Impairs DNA Repair Pathways

open access: yesBiology, 2018
Acromegaly is a pathological condition due to excess growth hormone (GH) secretion. Acromegaly patients exhibit a deterioration of health and many associated complications, such as cardiovascular issues, arthritis, kidney diseases, muscular weakness, and

Novel drugs approved by the EMA, the FDA and the MHRA in 2025: A year in review

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 9, Page 1779-1813, May 2026.
Abstract In the 2025 novel drug mini‐review, one can take a full measure of the ingenuity that underlies current drug design and development, despite the year's smaller harvest (46 novel drugs) compared to 2024 (53) and 2023 (70). 54% of the novel drugs are first‐in‐class (FIC).

A Case of Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction Secondary to Dilated Cardiomyopathy due to Long‐Standing Untreated Acromegaly: A Case Report and Focused Literature Review

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
Echocardiographic findings in dilated cardiomyopathy secondary to untreated acromegaly. (A) Apical four‐chamber view showing biventricular and biatrial dilation. (B‐C) Colour Doppler demonstrating mitral, aortic, and tricuspid regurgitation. (D) Reduced global longitudinal strain (GLS: −6.5%), consistent with severe systolic dysfunction.

AIP and MEN1 mutations and AIP immunohistochemistry in pituitary adenomas in a tertiary referral center. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background: Pituitary adenomas have a high disease burden due to tumor growth/ invasion and disordered hormonal secretion. Germline mutations in genes such as MEN1 and AIP are associated with early onset of aggressive pituitary adenomas that can be ...

Evaluation and Diagnostic Potential of Serum Ghrelin in Feline Hypersomatotropism and Diabetes Mellitus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BACKGROUND: Ghrelin is a growth hormone secretagogue. It is a potent regulator of energy homeostasis. Ghrelin concentration is down‐regulated in humans with hypersomatotropism (HS) and increases after successful treatment. Additionally, ghrelin secretion

Acromegaly at diagnosis in 3173 patients from the Liège Acromegaly Survey (LAS) Database

open access: yesEndocrine-Related Cancer, 2017
Acromegaly is a rare disorder caused by chronic growth hormone (GH) hypersecretion. While diagnostic and therapeutic methods have advanced, little information exists on trends in acromegaly characteristics over time.

MANAGEMENT OF ENDOCRINE DISEASE: Does gender matter in the management of acromegaly.

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Endocrinology, 2020
Gonadal steroids modulate the effects of GH, with oestrogens attenuating and androgens augmenting GH action. Whether these divergent effects influence the clinical manifestation, management and prognosis of acromegaly have not been carefully reviewed ...

Hypertensive Urgency and Pulmonary Infiltrates: A Report of Three Cases

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Hypertensive urgency is commonly attributed to medication nonadherence, progression of essential hypertension, or secondary causes. However, in some patients, no clear precipitating factor is identified, despite repeated evaluations and the absence of target organ damage. Subclinical inflammatory conditions have been hypothesized as potential,
