Adrenocorticotropic hormone-producing pheochromocytoma: analysis of clinical cases

Ожирение и метаболизм, 2015
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.

Pituitary apoplexy is associated with concurrent or subsequent diagnosis of human immunodeficiency virus

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Pituitary apoplexy (PA) is a rare condition caused by hemorrhage or infarction of the pituitary gland with associated risk of cranial neuropathies, endocrinopathies, and even death. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) has been shown to have some association with pituitary apoplexy, however, large‐scale studies have not been performed.

Integrative Analysis of Plasma Proteome and Genome Reveals Novel Drug Targets for Chronic Rhinosinusitis and Nasal Polyps

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and nasal polyps (NP) are chronic inflammatory conditions with unsatisfactory treatment outcomes due to frequent recurrence of refractory disease. Identifying new therapeutic targets is essential. Methods We conducted a proteome‐wide Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis by integrating genome‐wide ...

Mechanisms of action of adrenocorticotropic hormone and other melanocortins relevant to the clinical management of patients with multiple sclerosis

Multiple Sclerosis, 2013
The therapeutic benefits of adrenocorticotropic hormone in multiple sclerosis are usually ascribed to its corticotropic actions. Evidence is presented that adrenocorticotropic hormone, approved for multiple sclerosis relapses, acts via corticosteroid ...
