Estrogen-secreting adrenocortical carcinoma [PDF]
Adrenocortical carcinoma is a rare type of endocrine malignancy with an annual incidence of approximately 1–2 cases per million. The majority of these tumors secrete cortisol, and a few secrete aldosterone or androgen.

Obesity in Classic Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia: Mechanisms, Complications and Management
ABSTRACT Classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CCAH) is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder primarily caused by 21‐hydroxylase deficiency. Although the survival rate of patients has significantly improved with glucocorticoid replacement therapy, long‐term use of supraphysiological doses and multiple factors inherent to the disease itself have led

Apoptosis regulation in adrenocortical carcinoma
Apoptosis evading is a hallmark of cancer. Tumor cells are characterized by having an impaired apoptosis signaling, a fact that deregulates the balance between cell death and survival, leading to tumor development, invasion and resistance to treatment ...

Hypercortisolism: Causes, Consequences and Clinical Significance – A Review of Pathophysiology
ABSTRACT Hypercortisolism or Cushing syndrome is a heterogeneous clinical spectrum caused by chronic glucocorticoid excess, ranging from exogenous Cushing syndrome to rare endogenous aetiologies and the increasingly recognised entity of mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS). Physiological cortisol production is tightly regulated by the hypothalamic–

Feminizing adrenocortical tumors: Literature review
Feminizing adrenal tumors (FAT) are extremely rare tumors prevailing in males. Clinical manifestations are gynecomastia and/or other hypogonadism features in adults. They are rarer in pediatric population and their main manifestation is peripheral sexual

SAMHD1 regulates intracellular dNTP pools, influencing lentiviral transduction, gene therapy efficiency, and disease progression in pediatric hematological malignancies. Integrated bioinformatics and targeted strategies, including CRISPR and pharmacological inhibition, highlight its therapeutic potential.

FOXA1 is a highly sensitive diagnostic marker for prostate cancer. Besides prostatic adenocarcinoma, it is also expressed in 57%–80% of metastatic or primary prostatic small cell carcinomas, which lose traditional prostatic markers including NKX3.1. Although it is less specific than NKX3.1, it can serve as a valuable adjunct for confirming prostatic ...

Ectopic adrenocortical tissue may be present in many anatomical localizations. Hyperplasia, adenoma or carcinoma can occasionally develop from the ectopic adrenal tissue. Therefore, it should be surgically excised when it is detected.

Abstract Background The prevalence of adrenal incidentalomas is increasing, along with the incidence of functional or malignant lesions. This study assessed how imaging of adrenal incidentalomas at a tertiary hospital in Auckland, New Zealand, without a dedicated adrenal incidentaloma service, conformed to the American College of Radiology (ACR ...

Cancer heterogeneity explored through immune cell deconvolution of the tumor microenvironment
Abstract Cancer is a highly heterogeneous disease, characterized by significant variability across multiple dimensions. This diversity has been extensively studied from various perspectives. In this study, we aim to examine cancer heterogeneity through the lens of immune cell composition within the tumor microenvironment.
