How Common Is Hypercortisolism in Patients With Hypertension? Risk Factors, Epidemiology, and Making a Diagnosis

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Endogenous hypercortisolism (EHC) is an underrecognised and clinically significant contributor to hypertension, particularly resistant hypertension. Once viewed as a rare entity, EHC is now understood as a spectrum of cortisol excess associated with adverse cardiometabolic outcomes and target‐organ damage.

Role and action mechanisms of tPA in CRH-induced apoptosis of mouse oviductal epithelial and mural granulosa cells

The Journal of Reproduction and Development
Understanding how stress hormones induce apoptosis in oviductal epithelial cells (OECs) and mural granulosa cells (MGCs) can reveal the mechanisms by which female stress impairs embryonic development and oocyte competence.

Is Hypercortisolism Treatable? Which Patients Should Be Treated and How—A Practical Guide for Clinicians

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To provide a practical guide on when to suspect endogenous hypercortisolism, how to use the overnight 1‐mg dexamethasone suppression test (DST) for targeted case‐finding, and which patients are most likely to benefit from treatment.

Annual Research Review: What processes are dysregulated among emotionally dysregulated youth? – a systematic review

Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, Volume 66, Issue 4, Page 516-546, April 2025.
Proliferation of the term “emotion dysregulation” in child psychopathology parallels the growing interest in processes that influence negative emotional reactivity. While it commonly refers to a clinical phenotype where intense anger leads to behavioral dyscontrol, the term implies etiology because anything that is dysregulated requires an impaired ...

Take my breath away: Defining the oxygen saturation threshold for fish cortisol stress response

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Human activities are affecting the number, size and severity of hypoxic zones in aquatic ecosystems. As oxygen is one of the most important abiotic factors affecting fish biology, exposure to low levels of dissolved oxygen may lead to a reduction in fitness.

Association of Vitamin B6 and Homocysteine–ACTH Coupling With Depressive and Anxiety Symptoms in Burning Mouth Syndrome: An Exploratory Case–Control Study

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
In this exploratory case–control study, plasma PLP (vitamin B6), homocysteine and ACTH concentrations did not differ between patients with burning mouth syndrome (BMS) and controls, and none discriminated patients individually. Within patients, however, psychological distress mapped onto a homocysteine–ACTH relationship from which PLP appeared ...

Systemic, Lifestyle and Environmental Modifying Factors in the Pathogenesis of Periodontitis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
A variety of impacting factors in the pathogenesis of periodontitis exist, including systemic, lifestyle, and environmental factors. This review highlights the manifold mechanistic aspects of the link between the pathogenesis of periodontitis, addressing these numerous factors to supplement the long‐standing knowledge of the progression of the disease.

Peripheral Inflammation and Sleep Loss Induce Coordinated Motivational Changes: An Experimental Two‐Hit Stress Model

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sleep loss and low‐grade inflammation are common stressors that affect behaviour and recovery needs. To examine their separate and combined effects on motivation for everyday behaviours, we developed a two‐hit experimental model. Participants (N = 56, 31 women) completed three experimental visits: sleep saturation (two nights, 9 h in bed/night)

Single cocaine exposure attenuates the intrinsic excitability of CRH neurons in the ventral BNST via Sigma-1 receptors

Translational Neuroscience
The ventral bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (vBNST) plays a key role in cocaine addiction, especially relapse. However, the direct effects of cocaine on corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) neurons in the vBNST remain unclear. Here, we identify that
