Post-Mortem Immunohistochemical Evidence of β2-Adrenergic Receptor Expression in the Adrenal Gland [PDF]
The evidence from post-mortem biochemical studies conducted on cortisol and catecholamines suggest that analysis of the adrenal gland could provide useful information about its role in human pathophysiology and the stress response.

Pattern recognition receptors as key players in adrenal gland dysfunction during sepsis [PDF]
Background: Undergoing systemic inflammation, the innate immune system releases excessive proinflammatory mediators, which finally can lead to organ failure. Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), such as Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and NOD-like receptors (

Novel causes and consequences of overtraining syndrome: the EROS-DISRUPTORS study
Background Hormonal physiology in athletes, dysfunctional paths leading to overtraining syndrome (OTS), and clinical and biochemical behaviors that are independently modified by the presence of OTS remain unclear.

Adrenal pheochromocytoma incidentally discovered in a patient with parkinsonism [PDF]
To evaluate the diagnostic route of pheochromocytoma (PHEO) in a patient under dopaminergic treatment. A 70-year-old man with Parkinsonism and under treatment with levodopa and carbidopa came to our observation for evaluation of arterial hypertension and

A rare case report of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy induced by catecholamine-producing tumor [PDF]
RATIONALE: Catecholamine-producing tumors are rare, occurring in less than 0.2% of patients with hypertension, but can have relevant cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 37-year-old woman presented with a history of dyspnea, chest

Abstract Improvements in ultrasonogrpahy and computed tomography have led to the problem of ‘adrenal incidentaloma’, an asymptomatic adrenal mass discovered during investigation of some other problem. In the light of current knowledge a management rationale for patients with such an adrenal abnormality is proposed.

Background Overtraining syndrome (OTS) results from excessive training load without adequate recovery and leads to decreased performance and fatigue. The pathophysiology of OTS in athletes is not fully understood, which makes accurate diagnosis difficult.

Mutational analysis of DAX1 in patients with hypogonadotropic hypogonadism or pubertal delay [PDF]
Although delayed puberty is relatively common and often familial, its molecular and pathophysiologic basis is poorly understood. In contrast, the molecular mechanisms underlying some forms of hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (HH) are clearer, following the ...
