720-750 / 1000+ resultsresearch Post-partum pituitary insufficiency and livedo reticularis presenting a diagnostic challenge in a resource limited setting in Tanzania: a case report, clinical discussion and brief review of existing literature
Early diagnosis and hormone therapy can significantly improve outcomes for post-partum pituitary insufficiency in resource-limited settings.
research The Effects of Finasteride on Pituitary-Testicular Hormone Axis and Spermatogenesis in Rat.
research Human hair follicles display a functional equivalent of the hypothalamic‐pituitary‐adrenal (HPA) axis and synthesize cortisol
Human hair follicles can produce cortisol like the body's stress response system.
research Opposite effects of dihydrotestosterone and estradiol on apoptosis in the anterior pituitary gland from male rats
research Central 5-alpha reduction of testosterone is required for testosterone's inhibition of the hypothalamo-pituitary–adrenal axis response to restraint stress in adult male rats
Testosterone needs to be converted to DHT to reduce stress response in male rats.
research Effects of steroid hormones on the expression of Ca2+ activated K+ channels in in vitro pituitary cells of Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua)
Steroid hormones may affect sexual maturation in cod by altering certain KCa channel expressions.
research New effects of caffeine on corticotropin‐releasing hormone (CRH)‐induced stress along the intrafollicular classical hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis (CRH‐R1/2, IP3‐R, ACTH, MC‐R2) and the neurogenic non‐HPA axis (substance P, p75NTRand TrkA) inex vivohuman male androgenetic scalp hair follicles
Caffeine may help reduce stress-induced hair loss.
research Hair Color, Molt, and Testis Size in Male, Short-Tailed Weasels Treated with Melatonin
Melatonin causes weasels to grow white fur and become reproductively inactive.
research Endocrine intervention for transsexuals
Hormone treatment for transsexual individuals is effective but carries risks like thromboembolic events and mood changes, with most side effects being minor and reversible.
research Current evaluation of amenorrhea
Amenorrhea is relatively rare and initial testing should check FSH, TSH, and prolactin levels.
research Hormonal control of pelage cycles in the short tailed weasel (Mustela erminea bangsi)
The pituitary gland controls seasonal fur color changes in weasels.
research The clinical evaluation of hirsutism
Hirsutism is excessive hair growth in women often caused by polycystic ovarian syndrome, and identifying the cause is important for managing associated health risks.
research Change in Hair Color in Mice Induced by Injection of α-MSH
Injecting α-MSH made mice's hair turn black.
research Is seborrhea a sign of autonomic impairment in Parkinson's disease?
Seborrhea in Parkinson's disease may be linked to hormones, not autonomic impairment.
research Studies of the components of an oral contraceptive agent in albino rats. I. Estrogenic component
High doses of ethynylestradiol in rats caused growth issues, organ changes, and some tumors, but didn't increase overall tumor rates.
research Hormonal Control of Pelage Cycles In The Mink
The pituitary gland is crucial for normal mink fur cycles.
research Current evaluation of amenorrhea
Amenorrhea is when a woman doesn't have periods, with primary amenorrhea starting by age 15 or within five years of breast development, and secondary amenorrhea when periods stop for three months. It affects 3-4% of women not pregnant, breastfeeding, or in menopause, mainly due to polycystic ovary syndrome, hypothalamic amenorrhea, hyperprolactinemia, and ovarian failure.
research Fertility and sexual life of men after their forties and in older age.
Men's fertility and sexual health decline with age, with reduced testosterone and virility, and many lose fertility by their eighties.
research EFFECTS OF ADRENOCORTICOTROPIC HORMONE ON BODY GROWTH, VISCERAL PROPORTIONS, AND WHITE BLOOD CELL COUNTS OF NORMAL AND HYPOPHYSECTOMIZED MALE RATS
Adrenocorticotropic hormone inhibits growth and affects body composition in male rats.
research Lesson of the week: Haemochromatosis as an endocrine cause of subfertility
Haemochromatosis can cause infertility by affecting hormone glands.
research Hypersomatotropism in 3 Cats without Concurrent Diabetes Mellitus
Cats can have hypersomatotropism without diabetes, suggesting current diagnosis methods may miss cases.
research HIRSUTISM IN FEMALES; A CLINICAL STUDY OF ITS ETIOLOGY, COURSE AND TREATMENT
Hirsutism in females is complex, often linked to tumors, and requires more research for better treatment.
research Netherton Syndrome Associated with Growth Hormone Deficiency
Growth hormone therapy can improve growth in Netherton syndrome patients with growth hormone deficiency.
research Regression of Pathologic Changes Induced by the Long-term Administration of Contraceptive Steroids to Rodents
Some steroid-induced health issues in rodents improved after stopping treatment, but hair loss and eye problems did not.
research Cutaneous manifestations of endocrine-metabolic disease and nutritional deficiency in the elderly
Skin problems in older people can indicate hormonal diseases, nutritional deficiencies, or conditions like diabetes, menopause, and HIV.
research COVID-19 and hypopituitarism
COVID-19 and hypopituitarism (reduced pituitary gland function) are linked, with the latter's related health issues potentially worsening COVID-19 outcomes, and COVID-19 possibly increasing risk for pituitary complications.
research Tertiary hypothyroidism in a dog
A dog with a pituitary tumor developed tertiary hypothyroidism, improved with treatment, but was later euthanized due to neurological issues.
research Molecular basis of androgen action on human sexual desire
Testosterone significantly affects sexual desire in both men and women, but its impact on women is more complex and influenced by psychological factors.
research Adenohypophysitis Associated with Sebaceous Gland Atrophy in a Dog
A dog had a rare skin condition linked to gland and pituitary issues.
