Multiple eumenorrheic cycles are necessary to observe a significant increase in estrogen exposure and ovulation in exercising women with functional hypothalamic oligo/amenorrhea undergoing a nutritional intervention: Insights from the REFUEL study

open access: yesPM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Due to consequences of energy‐related oligo‐/amenorrhea (Oligo/Amen) among exercising females, recovery of menses (ROM) is a priority. ROM is inconsistently defined and rarely reported with reproductive hormone (estrogen, progesterone) data, making it difficult to know when females achieve adequate recovery. Objective The purpose of

Ovalbumin sensitization and challenge increases the number of lung cells possessing a mesenchymal stromal cell phenotype [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background Recent studies have indicated the presence of multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) in human lung diseases. Excess airway smooth muscle, myofibroblasts and activated fibroblasts have each been noted in asthma, suggesting that ...

Plasma Proteomics Analysis Identifying IGFBP2 as a Potential Diagnostic Biomarker for Laryngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Currently, there are no blood biomarkers available for the early diagnosis of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC). The objective of this study was to search for potential plasma biomarkers for the diagnosis of LSCC. Methods Plasma samples were taken from patients with LSCC and healthy controls for proteomic analysis.

Gel chromatographic characterization of immunoreactive adrenocorticotropin in patients with ACTH hypersecretion [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
We investigated the molecular size of circulating immunoreactive ACTH by gel chromatography in patients with ACTH hypersecretion due to various disorders of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis.

Prenatal alcohol exposure increases the aggressiveness of estrogen‐induced pituitary tumors in male rats

open access: yesAlcohol, Clinical and Experimental Research, EarlyView.
Prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE) enhances the development of aggressive pituitary tumors (PitNETs) in female rats. In this study, we found that PAE also promotes the development of PitNETs in male rats. Like in females, PAE treatment enhances the expression of stem cell and tumor aggressiveness genes and increases tumor cell proliferation rate ...

Confusion in the interpretation of prolactin levels caused by inappropriately low reference intervals

open access: yesEndocrine Connections
Objective: Serum prolactin measurements are important in the differential diagnosis of pituitary masses and subfertility. We observed discrepancies in serum prolactin levels in several patients measured with different immunoassays. Despite differences in

Relationship of serum prolactin with severity of drug use and treatment outcome in cocaine dependence. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
RATIONALE: Alteration in serum prolactin (PRL) levels may reflect changes in central dopamine activity, which modulates the behavioral effects of cocaine.
