Obesity in Classic Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia: Mechanisms, Complications and Management
ABSTRACT Classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CCAH) is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder primarily caused by 21‐hydroxylase deficiency. Although the survival rate of patients has significantly improved with glucocorticoid replacement therapy, long‐term use of supraphysiological doses and multiple factors inherent to the disease itself have led

Background Steroid 21-hydroxylase deficiency is the most common cause of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). Detection of underlying mutations in CYP21A2 gene encoding steroid 21-hydroxylase enzyme is helpful both for confirmation of diagnosis and ...

Molecular Ontology Predicts Output Connections From the Nucleus of the Solitary Tract
The nucleus of the solitary tract (NTS) integrates visceral inputs to coordinate appetite and digestion, breathing, and cardiorespiratory reflexes. Using cell‐type‐specific tracing, we show that excitatory Lmx1b neurons project broadly to brainstem and forebrain targets, whereas inhibitory output remains largely brainstem‐restricted. Catecholaminergic (

Evaluation of Potential Hormonal Activities of Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera)
ABSTRACT Ashwagandha is a widely used herb in traditional medicine systems, particularly Ayurveda. Despite its extensive tradition, growing concerns regarding its potential endocrinological effects have prompted scientific scrutiny. This review systematically evaluates the current preclinical, clinical, and case study evidence concerning AS's effects ...

Fetal growth restriction is associated with placental metabolic adaptations. In small‐for‐gestational‐age placenta (SGA), cholesterol receptors and steroidogenic enzymes are upregulated, enhancing steroidogenesis. NAD salvage pathway is also increased to support NADP+/NADPH requirements.

Immunoassays of steroid hormones are still used in the diagnosis and monitoring of patients with congenital adrenal hyperplasia. However, cross-reactivity between steroids can give rise to falsely elevated steroid levels.
