Non‐pituitary growth hormone enables colon cell senescence evasion
Growth hormone (GH), stimulated by DNA damage and CXCL1, is induced in senescent cells and is a component of senescence‐associated secretory phenotype (SASP). SASP GH triggers senescence evasion in a subset of senescence cells and activates epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT), resulting in post‐senescent cell migration and transformation ...

Guidelines on diagnostics and treatment of acromegaly (draft)
We recommend acromegaly to be ruled in all patients with characteristic changes in appearance (A3). In all patients without characteristic changes in appearance, we recommend to rule out acromegaly, if several clinical signs suspicious for acromegaly are

Visceral Adiposity Index Is Associated with Insulin Sensitivity and Adipocytokine Levels in Newly Diagnosed Acromegalic Patients. [PDF]
Context: The visceral adiposity index (VAI) has proved to be a marker of visceral adipose dysfunction, strongly associated with insulin sensitivity in both the general and specific populations of patients at metabolic risk. Objective: The objective of

IGF‐1 as screening tool for acromegaly and adult‐onset growth hormone deficiency in the Netherlands
Abstract Objective Insulin‐like growth factor 1 (IGF‐1) measurements play a central role in the diagnosis and follow‐up of acromegaly and growth hormone deficiency. However, improving health care outcomes for these patients involves an intricate process of laboratory diagnostics and skilled health care professionals.
