The hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis in critical illness [PDF]
Plasma ACTH and cortisol concentrations are frequently elevated in patients in intensive care units (ICU). To examine the functional integrity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis during critical illness, we evaluated prospectively 53 ICU patients ...

Critical roles of endogenous glucocorticoids for disease tolerance in malaria
During malaria, the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis is activated and glucocorticoid (GC) levels are increased, but their essential roles have been largely overlooked.

Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC): diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment
Adrenocortical carticnoma (ACC) is a rare malignancy with an incidence of 0.7-2.0 cases/million habitants/year. The diagnosis of malignancy relies on careful investigations of clinical, biological, and imaging features before surgery and pathological ...

Correlation of the differential expression of PIK3R1 and its spliced variant, p55α, in pan‐cancer
PIK3R1 undergoes alternative splicing to generate the isoforms, p85α and p55α. By combining large patient datasets with laboratory experiments, we show that PIK3R1 spliced variants shape cancer behavior. While tumors lose the protective p85α isoform, p55α is overexpressed, changes linked to poorer survival and more pronounced in African American ...

ABSTRACT X‐linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X‐ALD) is a genetic peroxisome disorder linked to ABCD1 mutation, characterized by rapid and complex clinical symptoms. We here report a case of X‐ALD manifesting solely as dysarthria, associated with an undefined mutation in the ABCD1 gene, underscoring the necessity of atypical clinical symptoms in X‐ALD ...

No evidence for oncogenic mutations in guanine nucleotide-binding proteins of human adrenocortical neoplasms [PDF]
G-Proteins are membrane-bound heterotrimeric polypeptides that couple receptor signals to second messenger systems such as cAMP. Recently, point mutations at 2 codons of the highly preserved alpha-chain of Gs, the adenyl cyclase-stimulating G-protein ...
