Congenital adrenal hyperplasia [PDF]

open access: yesMedicinski Podmladak, 2021
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia is a disease in which a gene mutation, which is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, causes a disorder in the synthesis of enzymes that create glucocorticoids, mineralocorticoids, or sex steroids from adrenal ...

Congenital adrenal hyperplasia [PDF]

open access: yesLancet, The, 2017
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia is a group of autosomal recessive disorders encompassing enzyme deficiencies in the adrenal steroidogenesis pathway that lead to impaired cortisol biosynthesis. Depending on the type and severity of steroid block, patients can have various alterations in glucocorticoid, mineralocorticoid, and sex steroid production that ...

Adrenal Steroidogenesis and Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia [PDF]

open access: yesEndocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, 2015
Adrenal steroidogenesis is a dynamic process, reliant on de novo synthesis from cholesterol, under the stimulation of ACTH and other regulators. The syntheses of mineralocorticoids (primarily aldosterone), glucocorticoids (primarily cortisol), and adrenal androgens (primarily dehydroepiandrosterone and its sulfate) occur in separate adrenal cortical ...

Congenital lipoid adrenal hyperplasia [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Pediatric Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2014
Congenital lipoid adrenal hyperplasia (lipoid CAH) is the most fatal form of CAH, as it disrupts adrenal and gonadal steroidogenesis. Most cases of lipoid CAH are caused by recessive mutations in the gene encoding steroidogenic acute regulatory protein ...

Modeling Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia and Testing Interventions for Adrenal Insufficiency Using Donor-Specific Reprogrammed Cells

open access: yesCell Reports, 2018
Summary: Adrenal insufficiency is managed by hormone replacement therapy, which is far from optimal; the ability to generate functional steroidogenic cells would offer a unique opportunity for a curative approach to restoring the complex feedback ...

Congenital adrenal hyperplasia with associated giant adrenal myelolipoma, testicular adrenal rest tumors and primary pigmented nodular adrenocortical disease: A case report and brief review of the literature

open access: yesRadiology Case Reports, 2022
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia is an autosomal recessive disease most commonly associated with 21-hydroxylase deficiency, an enzyme integral in the biosynthesis of mineralocorticoids and glucocorticoids.

Acute Gastroenteritis Induced Adrenal Crisis in a patient with Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia: A Case Report

open access: yesJournal of Nepal Medical Association, 2023
Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia is a group of autosomal recessive diseases due to deficiencies of enzymes involved in steroidogenesis. If not diagnosed and treated adequately, Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia can lead to an acute adrenal crisis with ...

Congenital adrenal hyperplasia [PDF]

open access: yesDermato-Endocrinology, 2009
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia consists of a heterogenous group of inherited disorders due to enzymatic defects in the biosynthetic pathway of cortisol and/or aldosterone. This results in glucocorticoid deficiency, mineralocorticoid deficiency, and androgen excess. 95% of CAH cases are due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency.

11β Hydroxylase Deficiency in a Child with Hypothyroidism: A Case Report

open access: yesJournal of Nepal Medical Association, 2023
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia occurs due to enzymatic defects in the adrenocortical steroidogenesis. 11β hydroxylase deficiency is the second most common cause of congenital adrenal hyperplasia which presents with hypertension and features of androgen ...
