A Report on Adrenal Gland Estrogens and Manifestations of Femininity
It has been shown and confirmed that adrenal cortical tumours synthesize and secrete oestrogens more than normal adrenals and eventually produce feminization in some cases. In addition to the above mentioned findings the lack of conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone has been shown to be the main biochemical disorder which causes the lack of hair growth in public area in some ca...
متن کاملThree-dimensional Volumetric Ultrasonography of Enlarged Adrenal Gland in Dog
Objective: Detection and evaluation of adrenal glands are complex problems in conventional ultrasonography in dogs. Using three-dimensional (3D) ultrasonography (US) in adrenal gland volume evaluation can add new potential for further adrenal studies. Design: Descriptive study Animals: a total of 10 mix breed dogs Procedures: The dogs underwent two dimensional (2D) and 3D US of the adrenal g...
متن کاملEnlightening the adrenal gland.
The secretion of glucocorticoid hormones is tightly regulated by the circadian clock and by negative humoral feedback loops, both acting on the hypothalamic-pituitary gland-adrenal axis. However, a new study Ishida et al., 2005 [this issue of Cell Metabolism) shows that light can influence the adrenal's glucocorticoid output by a more direct pathway.
متن کاملRadioimmunoassay for Cyclic Nucleotides
Sensitive and specific radioimmunoassays have been developed for cyclic adenosine 3’, 5’-monophosphate (CAMP), cyclic guanosine 3’ ,5’-monophosphate (cGMP), cyclic inosine 3’ ,5’-monophosphate (cIMP), and cyclic uridine 3’, 5’monophosphate (cUMP). These assays are based upon competition of the cyclic nucleotide with isotopically labeled cyclic nucleotide derivatives for binding sites on specifi...
متن کاملStudies on the biosynthesis of sterol and corticosterone in rat adrenal gland.
An obligatory role for cholesterol in the biosynthesis of steroid hormones seems to be generally accepted. Werbin and Chaikoff (1961) fed cholesterol-4-14C to guinea pigs for 5 weeks and compared the specific activity of plasma cholesterol, adrenal cholesterol and cortisol isolated from urine. Although the specific activity of the adrenal cholesterol was only 60% of that of plasma cholesterol, ...
