Eplerenone–A novel Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist for the clinical application

open access: yesEnvironmental Disease, 2022
Aldosterone is produced from the zona glomerulosa of the adrenal cortex in the adrenal gland, which is main mineralocorticoid hormone. Upon binding the mineralocorticoid receptor, it regulates sodium and potassium absorption, secretion, and retention ...

Adrenal Cytomegaly: Two Cases Detected by Prenatal Diagnosis

open access: yesAsian Journal of Surgery, 2003
We report our experience with two cases of adrenal cytomegaly, both of which were detected as cystic adrenal masses during prenatal ultrasonographic examinations. In Case 1, a left suprarenal cystic mass was detected in the fetus at 25 weeks of gestation.

An Autopsy Case With Fragile X-Associated Tremor/Ataxia Syndrome Presenting Intranuclear Inclusion Bodies Mainly in the Limbic System. [PDF]

open access: yesNeuropathology
ABSTRACT Fragile X‐associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by a late onset and slow progression caused by a premutation (55–200 CGG repeat) in the fragile X mental retardation (FMR1) gene. Here, we report the case of a Japanese patient with FXTAS which is the first case autopsied in Japan. The patient was

Alternation of Resting-State Functional Connectivity Between Visual Cortex and Hypothalamus in Guinea Pigs With Experimental Glucocorticoid Enhanced Myopia After the Treatment of Electroacupuncture

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroinformatics, 2021
Excessive glucocorticoids (GC) may lead to the aggravation of several basic diseases including myopia, due to plasma hormone imbalances associated with the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis (HPAA).
