Serum afamin and its implications in adult growth hormone deficiency: a prospective GH-withdrawal study

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology
IntroductionAdult growth hormone deficiency (AGHD) is associated with a high prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MS), which contributes to the unfavorable cardiovascular risk profile in these patients.

Ocular findings in adult subjects with an inactivating mutation in GH releasing hormone receptor gene

open access: yes, 2017
Objective: Ocular function is fundamental for environmental adaptation and survival capacity. Growth factors are necessary for a mature eyeball, needed for adequate vision.

From energy provision to protein synthesis: Tunnelling nanotubes as mediators of intercellular metabolic cooperation in cancer

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The cytoskeleton‐mediated transport of mitochondria via tunnelling nanotubes restores respiration, increases ATP production, rescues cells from apoptosis, activates the AKT/mTOR signalling pathway, promotes cell migration and invasiveness, contributes to cancer progression and treatment resistance.

In silico and in vitro exploration of a tyrosinase for biocatalytic production of catechols

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Tyrosinase from Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum is a promising biocatalyst for producing valuable catechols from monophenol substrates. This tyrosinase is uniquely suited to this due to its high monophenolase : diphenolase ratio. We combined in silico docking and in vivo kinetic characterisation of this tyrosinase with 11 industrially relevant monophenols,

Avidin is evolutionarily conserved in fish but dispensable for development and resistance against Streptococcus agalactiae in zebrafish

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The presence of biotin‐binding avidin proteins in fish and their biological significance are poorly characterized. We cataloged fish avidins and demonstrate that they are widely present and evolutionarily conserved. We created avd knockout zebrafish and show that zebavidin is dispensable for development and that resistance of avd knockout embryos in ...

Growth hormone deficiency in children.

open access: yes, 2014
Growth hormone (GH) deficiency may be of congenital origin and may present with typical clinical signs and symptoms very early in postnatal life, but may also present later during childhood with growth deceleration. In a short-statured child suspected of

Cogntive changes during growth hormone replacement in adult men

open access: yes, 1998
The present study evaluates the effects of 2 years of growth hormone (GH) replacement therapy on psychological well-being and cognitive performance in adults with childhood-onset growth hormone deficiency (CO- GHD). A total of 48 GHD adult men (mean age:

Beta1 subunits enable fentanyl‐induced BK channel activation and opioid regulation of cerebral artery diameter

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
During the current opioid crisis, the majority of overdose deaths are attributed to ultra‐potent synthetic opioids, such as fentanyl. While fentanyl exerts its action via opioid receptors, we propose that potassium channels in the brain blood vessels may also sense fentanyl.

[Growth hormone deficiency in adults].

open access: yesTidsskrift for den Norske laegeforening : tidsskrift for praktisk medicin, ny raekke, 1997
Growth hormone (GH) has been in clinical use for almost 40 years to promote linear growth in growth hormone deficient children. Treatment has usually been stopped after the epiphyseal plates have fused or when the person reaches a proper height. Previously, GH replacement therapy in adults was not deemed clinically indicated. GH-deficiency in adults is
