Hypersecretion of ACTH and PRL from pituitary adenoma in MEN1, adequately managed by medical therapy
A 54-year-old man had gastrinoma, parathyroid hyperplasia and pituitary tumor. His family history indicated that he might have multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1). MEN1 gene analysis revealed a heterozygous germline mutation (Gly156Arg). Therefore,

No evidence for oncogenic mutations in guanine nucleotide-binding proteins of human adrenocortical neoplasms [PDF]
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 ...

An Investigation of Hyperostosis Frontalis Interna in a Modern Anatomical Body Donor Population
ABSTRACT This research sought to examine the prevalence and severity of hyperostosis frontalis interna (HFI) in the Chicagoland anatomical body donor population. The study further aimed to elucidate potential demographic risk factors for HFI, including sex, age at death, and structural vulnerability index (SVI), as well as any common comorbidities, as ...

Novel Insights into Pituitary Tumorigenesis: Genetic and Epigenetic Mechanisms
Substantial advances have been made recently in the pathobiology of pituitary tumors. Similar to many other endocrine tumors, over the last few years we have recognized the role of germline and somatic mutations in a number of syndromic or nonsyndromic ...

ABSTRACT Noise and toluene are environmental stressors that induce oxidative stress and inflammation, contributing to renal dysfunction. This study evaluated the protective effects of Olea europaea leaf extract (OeLE; 40 mg/kg/day) against combined noise‐ and toluene‐induced nephrotoxicity in Wistar rats.

The Aging Gut–Brain Axis: Effects of Dietary Polyphenols and Metal Exposure
The influence of gut microbiota on brain health ABSTRACT Diet provides essential metals, which are required for the growth, development, and well‐functioning of the body. Nonetheless, some natural and human activities add toxic heavy metals to the diet, consequently introducing them to our bodies, resulting in several disorders and death. The intestine,
