British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Abstract Background and Purpose Plasma glucocorticoids increase acutely after MI, thereafter tissue levels are amplified selectively within cells expressing 11‐ßhydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11‐ßHSD1) that regenerates active glucocorticoids from circulating metabolites.

Opioids in breast cancer: Between analgesia and modulation of tumour progression
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Preclinical investigations consistently demonstrate that activation of μ‐opioid receptors and δ‐opioid receptors promote proliferation, migration, angiogenesis, epithelial‐mesenchymal transition, acquisition of cancer stem cell phenotypes, and chemoresistance.

Targeting Inflammation and Immune Regulation in Chronic Inflammation Associated Cancers
Cancer Science, EarlyView.Chronic inflammation sustains activation of key inflammatory pathways, including Nuclear factor kappa B (NF‐κB), Interleukin‐6‐signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (IL6‐STAT3), Phosphoinositide 3‐kinase/Akt (PI3K/Akt), and Wingless/β‐catenin (Wnt/β‐catenin) signaling. This promotes immune dysregulation through the expansion and functional

Purification and cultivation of human pituitary growth hormone secreting cells [PDF]
A multiphase study was conducted to examine the properties of growth hormone cells. Topics investigated included: (1) to determine if growth hormone (GH) cells contained within the rat pituitary gland can be separated from the other hormone producing ...

Cardiovascular Health in Women—Across the Lifespan
Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of mortality and morbidity among women worldwide. However, CVD continues to be perceived as a predominantly male issue. CVD in women therefore remains understudied, underrecognized and undertreated.

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Context Screening morning serum cortisol is used to select patients for ACTH stimulation testing to diagnose adrenal insufficiency (AI) but may be affected by pre‐analytical factors. Careful consideration to discontinue confounding medications beforehand may preclude the need for subsequent stimulation testing.

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective The effect of transsphenoidal surgery (TSS) on the hypothalamic‐pituitary‐gonadal (HPG) axis in patients with non‐functioning pituitary adenomas (NFPA) is underexplored, especially in women. Our aim was to investigate the HPG axis function before and after TSS, its association with quality of life (QoL), and to identify factors that ...

Clinical Obesity, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2025.Summary Chronic stress, characterized by increased long‐term exposure to the glucocorticoid hormone cortisol, is increasingly linked to obesity development. Still, various knowledge gaps persist, including on underlying pathophysiological mechanisms. The aim of the current review is to provide the latest insights on the connection between stress and ...

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract The design of experiments to investigate the combined effects of multiple stressors requires exposing target organisms to multiple combinations of stressor doses. Concurrent manipulation of stressors is often infeasible with wildlife, but long‐lasting health effects allow individual health to be used as an integrator of prior stressor exposure.
