A Direct Role for Thyroid Hormone in Development of the Adrenal Cortex
Endocrinology, 2015 A relationship between thyroid and adrenal dysfunction has been recognized for some time. Certain human autoimmune conditions, for example, can destroy both the thyroid gland and adrenal cortex resulting in combined hormone deficiencies. Beyond autoimmune destruction, however, a relationship between thyroid and adrenocortical function is less clear ...

Acta Paediatrica, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Aim Aetiological factors affecting the phenotype of adrenarche are largely unknown. This study investigated the phenotypic variability of premature adrenarche. Methods In this cross‐sectional retrospective registry study, data on 91 mainly Caucasian children diagnosed with premature adrenarche were retrieved from patient records.

Grey matter volume correlates with virtual water maze task performance in boys with androgen excess [PDF]
, 2011 Major questions remain about the specific role of testosterone in human spatial navigation. We tested 10 boys (mean age 11.65 years) with an extremely rare disorder of androgen excess (Familial Male Precocious Puberty, FMPP) and 40 healthy boys (mean age

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2010 Steroids are important neuromodulators influencing cognitive performance and synaptic plasticity. While the majority of literature concerns adrenal- and gonadectomized animals, very little is known about the natural endogenous release of hormones during ...

Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.Nutritional secondary hyperparathyroidism is a metabolic disorder caused by an imbalance in calcium homeostasis and is typically associated with the feeding of a calcium‐deficient diet. Nutritional secondary hyperparathyroidism has been reported in domestic species, including cats and dogs, as well as captive carnivores and wildlife including lions ...

Synthetic microneurotrophins: Neurotrophin receptors for therapeutics of neurodegenerative diseases
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Neurodegenerative disorders are characterised by the chronic progressive degeneration of specific neuronal subtypes, neuroinflammation, myelin damage and synaptic loss. Despite their growing incidence, advancements in effective treatments remain limited, because of lack of knowledge for the aetiology of the diverse pathophysiology to design systematic ...

Beyond synapses: cytoplasmic connections in brain function and evolution
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Following Ramón y Cajal's groundbreaking contributions to the identification of synapses, research in neuroscience predominantly focused on their pivotal role in neural communication (the neuron doctrine), overlooking an intriguing possibility suggested by Golgi of non‐synaptic interactions among neural cells.
