The endocrine system coordinates whole body cellular function and maintains homeostasis. Alcohol impacts the integrity of endocrine regulation at multiple sites, contributing to risk for comorbidities. Some of the alcohol‐mediated pathophysiological effects on the endocrine system include alterations in receptor expression and responsiveness, protein ...

Adrenal insufficiency (AI) is characterized by inadequate steroid hormone production and is frequently a consequence of hypopituitarism, which is also associated with increased risk of osteoporosis due to deficiencies in growth hormone, gonadotropins, and other pituitary hormones.

miR‐221/222 Facilitate Pituitary Adenoma Progression Via PHACTR4 Downregulation
Most of pituitary adenomas are biologically benign, but some grow local‐invasively and can invade important adjacent tissues, resulting in clinical symptoms such as hormone secretion disorders and visual field defects. MicroRNA‐221/222 (miR‐221/222) is tandemly encoded on the X chromosome in humans, mice and rats, and is highly conserved in vertebrates

Ept7, a quantitative trait locus that controls estrogen-induced pituitary lactotroph hyperplasia in rat, is orthologous to a locus in humans that has been associated with numerous cancer types and common diseases. [PDF]
Pituitary adenoma is a common intracranial neoplasm that is observed in approximately 10% of unselected individuals at autopsy. Prolactin-producing adenomas, i.e., prolactinomas, comprise approximately 50% of all pituitary adenomas and represent the most

Background This study presents our observations on the management and follow‐up of patients diagnosed with lobular granulomatous mastitis (LGM) in a cohort study. Additionally, characteristics associated with a longer disease course, as well as treatment challenges in patients with erythema nodosum, diabetes, and hyperprolactinemia, would be discussed.

Trial Readiness: Understanding the Natural History of Rare Diseases
ABSTRACT Inherited metabolic diseases (IMD) represent the largest and still growing group of treatable genetic disorders and are increasingly amenable to targeted interventions that achieve varying degrees of prognostic improvement. Innovative therapies are on the horizon and offer promising opportunities for disease‐changing treatment for a variety of

MicroRNA networks in prolactinoma tumorigenesis: a scoping review
Background Prolactinoma is the leading type of pituitary adenoma. Aside from the mass-like effect of prolactinoma, its hormonal effect is the main pathological cause of endocrine dysregulation and infertility.
