Adrenocorticotropic hormone-producing pheochromocytoma: analysis of clinical cases
Ectopic secretion of ACTH from non-pituitary tumors, referred to as ectopic ACTH syndrome (EAS), accounts for about 10–20% of Cushing’s syndrome (CS). Ectopic hormone-secreting pheochromocytomas (Pheo) are rare.

Abstract Characterization of the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) of pituitary neuroendocrine tumors (PitNETs) is crucial for understanding the behavior of different types of PitNETs and identification of possible causes of their aggressiveness, rapid growth, and resistance to therapy.

Abstract Background The hypothalamic‐pituitary‐adrenocortical axis (HPAA) response to sepsis can be impaired in critical illness. Corticotropin‐releasing hormone (CRH) stimulation test might assess HPAA function in foals. Objective To evaluate plasma cortisol, ACTH, arginine vasopressin (AVP), and endogenous CRH (eCRH) response to different doses of ...

Design Principles of Pancreatic Islets: Glucose-dependent Coordination of Hormone Pulses [PDF]
Pancreatic islets are functional units involved in glucose homeostasis. The multicellular system comprises three main cell types; $\beta$ and $\alpha$ cells reciprocally decrease and increase blood glucose by producing insulin and glucagon pulses, while the role of $\delta$ cells is less clear.

Orlicz hormonic Blaschke addition [PDF]
Recently, Gardner, Hug and Weil have introduced the Orlicz-Brunn-Minkowski theory: a general framework, additions, and inequalities. Following this, in the paper we consider Orlicz dual Brunn-Minkowski theory. We introduce Orlicz hormonic Blaschke addition which is an extension of the Lp hormonic Blaschke addition and L p radial Minkowski addition ...
