Effects of intrauterine exposure to synthetic glucocorticoids on fetal, newborn, and infant hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis function in humans : a systematic review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
BACKGROUND: Synthetic glucocorticoids are commonly used in reproductive medicine. Fetal organ systems are highly sensitive to changes in the intrauterine environment, including overexposure to glucocorticoids.

Melanocortin Regulation of Inflammation

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2019
Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), and α-, β-, and γ-melanocyte-stimulating hormones (α-, β-, γ-MSH), collectively known as melanocortins, together with their receptors (melanocortin receptors), are components of an ancient modulatory system.

Loss of FKBP5 Affects Neuron Synaptic Plasticity: An Electrophysiology Insight [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
FKBP5 (FKBP51) is a glucocorticoid receptor (GR) binding protein, which acts as a co-chaperone of heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) and negatively regulates GR.

Comparing self‐reported race and genetic ancestry for identifying potential differentially methylated sites in endometrial cancer: insights from African ancestry proportions using machine learning models

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Integrating ancestry, differential methylation analysis, and machine learning, we identified robust epigenetic signature genes (ESGs) and Core‐ESGs in Black and White women with endometrial cancer. Core‐ESGs (namely APOBEC1 and PLEKHG5) methylation levels were significantly associated with survival, with tumors from high African ancestry (THA) showing ...

SYHA1813, A VEGFR and CSF1R Inhibitor, in Patients With Recurrent High‐Grade Gliomas: A Multicenter, Open‐Label Phase I Study

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Recurrent high‐grade gliomas have a poor prognosis and limited therapeutic options. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of SYHA1813, a dual inhibitor of VEGFR and CSF1R, in patients with recurrent high‐grade gliomas.

Adenosine A2A Receptor Blockade Modulates Glucocorticoid-Induced Morphological Alterations in Axons, But Not in Dendrites, of Hippocampal Neurons

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2018
The exposure to supra-physiological levels of glucocorticoids in prenatal life can lead to a long-term impact in brain cytoarchitecture, increasing the susceptibility to neuropsychiatric disorders.

Durability of Response to B‐Cell Maturation Antigen‐Directed mRNA Cell Therapy in Myasthenia Gravis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective We report the 12‐month follow‐up outcomes from a Phase 2 clinical trial (NCT04146051) evaluating Descartes‐08, a BCMA‐directed RNA chimeric antigen receptor T‐cell (rCAR‐T) therapy for refractory generalized myasthenia gravis (MG).

Effect of neonatal dexamethasone treatment on cognitive abilities of adult male mice and gene expression in the hypothalamus

open access: yesВавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2019
The early postnatal period is critical for the development of the nervous system. Stress during this period causes negative long-term effects, which are manifested at both behavioral and molecular levels.

Critical roles of endogenous glucocorticoids for disease tolerance in malaria

open access: yes, 2019
During malaria, the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis is activated and glucocorticoid (GC) levels are increased, but their essential roles have been largely overlooked.
