21-hydroxylase deficiency transiently mimicking combined 21- and 11 beta-hydroxylase deficiency
(Walter De Gruyter Gmbh, 2008-05-01)
21-Hydroxylase deficiency (21OHD) is the commonest form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, while 11 beta OHD represents 5% of cases. Although both result from mutations in distinct genes, cases of 'apparent' combined 210HD ...
Adrenal steroids synthesis during acute infectious diseases in infants
(Freund Publishing House Ltd, 2002-11-01)
An increase in plasma 17OHP found in infants requiring differential diagnosis between septic shock and adrenal failure led us to look for adrenal steroids pattern during infection. Infants and Methods: 56 infants, 1-6 ...
Reproductive cycle, ovarian development, and vertebrate-type steroids profile in the freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii
(2007-05-01)
This study is intended to characterize the ovarian development and hemolymph vertebrate-type steroids concentration during the reproductive cycle of the freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii. A five-stage classification ...
Superior discriminating value of ACTH-stimulated serum 21-deoxycortisol in identifying heterozygote carriers for 21-hydroxylase deficiency
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2010-12-01)
P>BackgroundCongenital adrenal hyperplasia caused by classic 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21OHD) is an autosomal recessive disorder with a high prevalence of asymptomatic heterozygote carriers (HTZ) in the general population, ...
Heterozygosis for CYP21A2 mutation considered as 21-hydroxylase deficiency in neonatal screening
(Sociedade Brasileira de Endocrinologia e Metabologia, 2008-11-01)
Steroid 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD) accounts for more than 90% of congenital adrenal hyperplasia. CAH newborn screening, in general, is based on 17-hydroxyprogesterone dosage (17-OHP), however it is complicated by ...
