Congenital adrenal hyperplasia - current insights in pathophysiology, diagnostics and management.

open access: yesEndocrine reviews, 2021
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is a group of autosomal recessive disorders affecting cortisol biosynthesis. Reduced activity of an enzyme required for cortisol production leads to chronic overstimulation of the adrenal cortex and accumulation of ...

Development of Adrenocorticotrophic Hormone Cells of Adenohypophysis–Adrenal Cortex Axis of Long-tailed Monkey (Macaca fascicularis) during Pre and Postnatal Period

open access: yesJurnal Kedokteran Hewan, 2008
The objective of this study is to observe the relationship of development of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) cells of adenohypophysis–adrenal cortex axis during pre and postnatal period of longtailed monkey (Macaca fascicularis). Five fetuses aged 70,

Late diagnosis of primary chronic adrenal insufficiency in the framework of autoimmune polyglandular syndrome type 2. Clinical observation

open access: yesЛечащий Врач, 2023
Chronic adrenal insufficiency is caused by insufficient secretion of hormones by the adrenal cortex due to dysfunction of one or more links of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal system.

PKA signaling drives reticularis differentiation and sexually dimorphic adrenal cortex renewal.

open access: yesJCI Insight, 2018
The adrenal cortex undergoes remodeling during fetal and postnatal life. How zona reticularis emerges in the postnatal gland to support adrenarche, a process whereby higher primates increase prepubertal androgen secretion, is unknown.

Contribution of the adrenal gland to the production of androstenedione and testosterone during the first two years of life [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
Androstenedione and testosterone were measured in whole adrenal glands of 56 previously healthy boys who died suddenly between birth and 2 yr of age. In each adrenal gland, the concentration of androstenedione considerably exceeded that of testosterone ...

Steroidogenic differentiation and PKA signaling are programmed by histone methyltransferase EZH2 in the adrenal cortex

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2018
Significance The adrenal cortex plays a central role in regulating body homeostasis through production of glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids that control metabolism, inflammation, and blood pressure.

Pediatric Adrenal Insufficiency: Diagnosis, Management, and New Therapies

open access: yesInternational Journal of Pediatrics, 2018
Adrenal insufficiency may result from a wide variety of congenital or acquired disorders of hypothalamus, pituitary, or adrenal cortex. Destruction or dysfunction of the adrenal cortex is the cause of primary adrenal insufficiency, while secondary ...
