Pituitary-adrenal axis in Prader Willi syndrome [PDF]
Purpose: Prader Willi syndrome (PWS) is a rare genetic condition that has concurrent endocrinological insufficiencies. The presence of growth hormone deficiency has been well documented, but adrenal insufficiency (AI) is not widely reported. A review was

Acromegaly Presenting With Cricoarytenoid Joint Arthropathy
Excess growth hormone in acromegaly induces characteristic acral and soft tissue overgrowth (particularly in the face and hands), arthropathies, as well as cardiovascular and metabolic complications. Similar proliferative changes can occur in the larynx, where hypertrophy of the arytenoid and cricoid cartilages may impair vocal fold mobility.

The expression of the ACTH receptor
Adrenal glucocorticoid secretion is regulated by adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) acting through a specific cell membrane receptor (ACTH-R). The ACTH-R is a member of the G protein superfamily-coupled receptors and belongs to the subfamily of ...

Role of Sleep Disturbances and Diabetes‐Related Distress on Glycemic Control: A Path Analysis
ABSTRACT Despite advancements in diabetes management technology, many patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) struggle to achieve optimal glycemic control. Sleep disorders such as obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and insomnia are common in T2D and linked to poor glycemic control. Insomnia, particularly with short sleep duration, may worsen glycemic control by

Localisation of the melanocortin-2-receptor and its accessory proteins in the developing and adult adrenal gland [PDF]
The melanocortin-2-receptor (MC2R)/MC2R accessory protein (MRAP) complex is critical to the production of glucocorticoids from the adrenal cortex. Inactivating mutations in either MC2R or MRAP result in the clinical condition familial glucocorticoid ...

ACTH, cortisol and IL-6 levels in athletes following magnesium supplementation [PDF]
Background: Physical exercise activates the hypothalamopituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and induces the body's inflammatory response. Due to contemporary dietary habits and increased energy expenditure, athletes are susceptible to depletion of magnesium ions.
