Ketogenic diet for infantile epileptic spasms

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Approximately half of all cases of Infantile Epileptic Spasms Syndrome (IESS) do not respond to vigabatrin and hormonal therapies. There is no clear consensus as to the second‐line therapy for IESS. Ketogenic diet (KD) has emerged as an effective treatment for certain drug‐resistant epilepsies and in many cases of IESS.

Assessment of the Use of Adrenocorticotropic Hormone in Psoriatic Arthritis

, 2015
Background A 39-amino-acid peptide of the natural form of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) was designed to provide a prolonged release after administration by intramuscular or subcutaneous injection.

Evaluation of a new immunoassay for measuring equine serum insulin and plasma adrenocorticotrophic hormone: A method comparison study

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Insulin dysregulation (ID) and pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction (PPID) are common equine endocrinopathies detected by measurement of circulating insulin and adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH) concentrations. Different assays may yield variable results, limiting comparability.

Activation of melanocortin type 3 receptor as a molecular mechanism for adrenocorticotropic hormone efficacy in gouty arthritis.

, 2002
OBJECTIVE: To test the hypothesis that local activation of melanocortin receptor(s) by adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) could be responsible, at least in part, for its efficacy in human gouty arthritis.

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.
