Estrone and estradiol concentrations in human ovaries, testes, and adrenals during the first two years of life [PDF]
To determine the origin of estrogens in infant blood, we measured estrone (E1) and estradiol (E2) in the gonads of 50 girls and 64 boys who died suddenly between birth and 2 yr of age as well as in the adrenals of 18 of these infant girls and 16 of the ...

Large adrenocortical adenoma with malignant features on imaging: A case report
Large adrenocortical adenomas have rarely been reported. We describe a case of a 26-year-old man who underwent an adrenalectomy for a large adrenocortical adenoma (8.6 × 7.7 cm).

Nonhypnotic low-dose etomidate for rapid correction of hypercortisolaemia in cushing's syndrome [PDF]
We determined the adrenostatic potential of low-dose nonhypnotic etomidate in six patients with Cushing's syndrome (ectopic Cushing's syndrome,n=2; Cushing's disease,n=3; bilateral adrenal adenoma,n=1). Etomidate was given as a continuous infusion for 32

Gel chromatographic characterization of immunoreactive adrenocorticotropin in patients with ACTH hypersecretion [PDF]
We investigated the molecular size of circulating immunoreactive ACTH by gel chromatography in patients with ACTH hypersecretion due to various disorders of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis.

Clonal Composition of Human Adrenocortical Neoplasms [PDF]
The mechanisms of tumorigenesis of adrenocortical neoplasms are still not understood. Tumor formation may be the result of spontaneous transformation of adrenocortical cells by somatic mutations.
