Endothelial progenitor cells in a patient with Cushing's syndrome before and after adrenal surgery
Journal of Clinical and Translational Endocrinology Case Reports, 2018 Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) exert a pivotal role in vascular repairing and vascular function. Low EPCs levels have been detected in patients with endocrine disease at increased cardiovascular risk such as diabetes, hypothyroidism, and ...

Rectal budesonide: A potential game changer after Kasai hepatoportoenterostomy
Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.Abstract Objectives Intravenous or oral steroid administration in patients with biliary atresia (BA) after Kasai hepatoportoenterostomy (HPE) is commonly practiced, however, the benefits remain controversial. Some studies suggest no positive effects while risking steroid associated side effects.

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, EarlyView.Over half of patients with colorectal cancer experience severe chemotherapy‐induced side effects. The B‐vitamin folate may play a role in these side effects, potentially by altering DNA methylation, a mechanism of gene regulation. Our comprehensive literature search identified studies investigating DNA methylation associated with folate status/intake ...

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Longer‐term perspectives—equivalent to the lifespans of long‐lived trees—are required to fully inform perceptions of ‘naturalness’ used in woodland conservation and management. Stand‐scale dynamics of an old growth temperate woodland are reconstructed using palaeoecological data.

Daily blood pressure profile in Cushing's syndrome before and after surgery
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1999 No significant difference has been demonstrated in the altered circadian blood pressure pattern between the pituitary-dependent and adrenal forms of Cushing's syndrome before surgery. The effect of therapy, however, proved to be different.

No evidence for oncogenic mutations in guanine nucleotide-binding proteins of human adrenocortical neoplasms [PDF]
, 1933 G-Proteins are membrane-bound heterotrimeric polypeptides that couple receptor signals to second messenger systems such as cAMP. Recently, point mutations at 2 codons of the highly preserved alpha-chain of Gs, the adenyl cyclase-stimulating G-protein ...
