Adrenal enucleation in MSG-Damaged hyperleptinemic male rats transiently restores adrenal sensitivity to leptin
(Karger, 2003-09)
It is known that the neonatal treatment of rats with monosodium L-glutamate (MSG) induces several metabolic abnormalities, resulting in enhanced adiposity and hyperleptinemia. Our study was designed to explore the consequences ...

(Georg Thieme Verlag Kg, 2014-05-07)
Although changes of circulating steroids have been reported in patients with sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a full comparison of the adrenal and gonadal steroid profile between control subjects and ALS ...
Assessment of adrenal function by measurement of salivary steroids in response to corticotrophin in patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2007-04)
Objective: Adrenal insufficiency has been reported among critically ill HIV-infected patients. This is the first study that attempts to detect subclinical hypoadrenal states in non-critical HIV patients through salivary ...
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 ...
Salivary steroids in response to ACTH: a less invasive approach to assess adrenal function in hypotensive patients with chronic renal failure
(Lippincott Williams, 2006-01)
Summary OBJECTIVE Hypotension increases morbidity and mortality in patients with chronic renal failure .However, adrenocortical insufficiency has not been deeply investigated as possible physiopathologic mechanism of this ...
Modulation of the phenotype and function of Mycobacterium tuberculosis-stimulated dendritic cells by adrenal steroids
(Oxford University Press, 2013-02)
Cell-mediated immunity, cytokines induced during the specific immune response and T-cell populations are crucial factors for containing Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. Recent reports suggest a cross-regulation between ...
