Gel chromatographic characterization of immunoreactive adrenocorticotropin in patients with ACTH hypersecretion [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
We investigated the molecular size of circulating immunoreactive ACTH by gel chromatography in patients with ACTH hypersecretion due to various disorders of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis.

Development of a Zebrafish Embryo‐Based Test System for Thyroid Hormone System Disruption: 3Rs in Ecotoxicological Research

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology and Chemistry, EarlyView.
Abstract There is increasing concern regarding pollutants disrupting the vertebrate thyroid hormone (TH) system, which is crucial for development. Thus, identification of TH system–disrupting chemicals (THSDCs) is an important requirement in the Organisation for Economic Co‐operation and Development (OECD) testing framework.

Mapping molluscan endocrinology: a systematic and critical appraisal. [PDF]

open access: yesBiol Rev Camb Philos Soc
ABSTRACT Historically, a vertebrate‐centric paradigm has framed our interpretation of molluscan endocrinology, with considerable research focusing on vertebrate‐type steroid hormones (e.g. oestrogens, testosterone). However, contradictory evidence on the occurrence of vertebrate‐type steroid hormones in molluscan tissues, and a lack of the specific ...

A Comprehensive Investigation of Steroidogenic Signaling in Classical and New Experimental Cell Models of Adrenocortical Carcinoma

open access: yesCells, 2022
Adrenocortical carcinoma is a heterogeneous and aggressive cancer that originates from steroidogenic cells within the adrenal cortex. In this study, we have assessed for the preclinical gold standard NCI-H295 in direct comparison with the more recently ...

Protective Effects of Fenugreek and Stevia Extracts on Dexamethasone‐Induced Testicular Damage in a Rat Model

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Fenugreek and stevia extracts protect against dexamethasone‐induced testicular damage in male rats by enhancing antioxidant defenses, improving sperm quality, and restoring hormonal balance, highlighting their potential as natural therapeutics for preventing corticosteroid‐induced reproductive toxicity.
