Molecular analysis of Japanese patients with steroid 21-hydroxylase deficiency [PDF]
We have designed a rapid and convenient strategy to determine nine of the most common mutations in the 21-hydroxylase gene (CYP21). The frequency of the mutations was investigated in 34 Japanese patients affected with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) caused by 21-hydroxylase deficiency. We characterized 82% of the CAH chromosomes. The most frequent

Beyond Starch: Towards a Scalable Potato Platform for Molecular Farming
Re‐engineering potato as a biosafe and host‐optimised platform for plant molecular farming by integrating intrinsic biological traits with targeted engineering strategies. ABSTRACT Thirty‐five years after the first recombinant protein was produced in potato and 30 years after clinical trials of edible vaccines from its tubers, the crop is being ...

The Pathophysiology and Treatment of Hypertension in Patients With Cushing's Syndrome [PDF]
When hypertension, a pathology that is frequently found in the general population, presents in a young patient, secondary causes such as Cushing's syndrome (CS), a rare disease characterized by long-term elevated cortisol levels, should be considered ...

Cannabinoid exposure during pregnancy: Cardiorespiratory effects and offspring outcomes
Abstract figure legend Prenatal exposure to cannabinoids has been investigated across human and animal studies to understand its impact on physiological development. Evidence suggests that early‐life cannabinoid exposure influence multiple developmental processes, extending beyond neurodevelopmental outcomes to potentially affect placental function ...

The Acute Responses of Different-sized Coronary Arteries to Testosterone [PDF]
Coronary arteries supply blood to the myocardium. The blood flow within the coronary arteries is altered by various compounds produced within the body. Sex hormones such as testosterone are known to cause the relaxation of large coronary arteries.

Cushing's disease in a patient with steroid 21-hydroxylase deficiency
Cushing's disease rarely appears as a consequence of hereditary disease. However, familial diseases with diminished glucocorticoid feedback are associated with secondary hypercorticotropinism and have been shown to give rise to pituitary adenomas. We here describe the rare case of a 30-year old female patient with congenital adrenal hyperplasia who ...

Sentience in cephalopod molluscs: an updated assessment
ABSTRACT This article evaluates the evidence for sentience – the capacity to have feelings – in cephalopod molluscs: octopus, cuttlefish, squid, and nautilus. Our framework includes eight criteria, covering both whether the animal's nervous system could support sentience and whether their behaviour indicates sentience.
