Kisspeptin as a test of hypothalamic dysfunction in pubertal and reproductive disorders
Abstract The hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal axis is regulated by the gonadotropin‐releasing hormone pulse generator in the hypothalamus. This is comprised of neurons that secrete kisspeptin in a pulsatile manner to stimulate the release of GnRH, and, in turn, downstream gonadotropins from the pituitary gland, and subsequently sex steroids and ...

P53 mutations in human adrenocortical neoplasms [PDF]
The mechanisms of tumorigenesis of adrenocortical neoplasms have not been elucidated as yet. However, loss of heterozygosity at chromosomal locus 17p has been consistently observed in adrenocortical cancer.

Targeting Inflammation and Immune Regulation in Chronic Inflammation Associated Cancers
Chronic inflammation sustains activation of key inflammatory pathways, including Nuclear factor kappa B (NF‐κB), Interleukin‐6‐signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (IL6‐STAT3), Phosphoinositide 3‐kinase/Akt (PI3K/Akt), and Wingless/β‐catenin (Wnt/β‐catenin) signaling. This promotes immune dysregulation through the expansion and functional

Isolated Cushing’s Syndrome in Early Infancy Due to Left Adrenal Adenoma: An Unusual Aetiology
Bilateral macronodular adrenocortical disease as a part of McCune Albright Syndrome (MAS) is the most common cause of endogenous Cushing’s syndrome (CS) in infancy. Adrenocortical tumors causing CS in infancy are extremely rare.
