Long-term effects of growth hormone (GH) on bone mineral status and bone turnover markers in patients with isolated GH deficiency and multiple pituitary hormone deficiency.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE This study was designed to assess the long-term effects of growth hormone (GH) replacement therapy on bone mass and bone turnover markers in children with isolated GH deficiency (IGHD) and multiple pituitary hormone deficiency (MPHD). METHODS Fifty children (35 IGHD, 15 MPHD) receiving GH

Responses of bone turnover markers and bone mineral density to growth hormone therapy in children with isolated growth hormone deficiency and multiple pituitary hormone deficiencies.

Only registered users can translate articles

Growth hormone deficiency (GHD) is an important cause of decreased bone mass in childhood and adolescence. The role of other pituitary hormone deficiencies on bone mass is still a query in children. Thirty-nine children (28 with isolated GHD [IGHD] and 11 with multiple pituitary hormone deficiency

1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-mediated transforming growth factor-beta release is impaired in cultured osteoblasts from patients with multiple pituitary hormone deficiencies.

To evaluate the osteoblastic function in patients with multiple pituitary hormone deficiencies (M-PHD) and with isolated growth hormone deficiency (I-GHD), bone cells were cultured and the effects of 10(-8) M 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25[OH]2D3) on parameters of cell proliferation, osteoblastic

Effects of long-term treatment with GH in the bone mineral density of adults with hypopituitarism and GH deficiency and after discontinuation of GH replacement.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Only few previous studies have assessed the effects of long-term growth hormone (GH) replacement therapy on bone mineral density (BMD) in adult patients with GH deficiency. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of long-term GH therapy on bone metabolism and BMD. METHODS At

Effect of hypophysectomy on the proliferation and differentiation of rat bone marrow stromal cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

Conditions such as estrogen deficiency, skeletal unloading, and aging have all been demonstrated to have various effects on the proliferation and differentiation of bone marrow stroma-derived osteoprogenitor cells. Here we have sought to examine the effects of pituitary hormone deficiency on the

Skeletal alterations in hypophysectomized rats: I. A histomorphometric study on tibial cancellous bone.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Hypophysectomy (HX) results in a cessation of bone growth and a decrease in bone metabolism. The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of HX on the static and dynamic histomorphometry of cancellous bone in the secondary spongiosa of the proximal tibial metaphysis in

[A case of pineal region germinoma treated by interstitial brachytherapy].

Only registered users can translate articles

Although radiation therapy has been universally accepted as treatment for primary intracranial germinomas, the optimal technique for both diagnosis and treatment continues to be a matter of controversy. We report a case of germinoma in the pineal region treated by interstitial brachytherapy. A

Pituitary transcription factor Prop-1 stimulates porcine pituitary glycoprotein hormone alpha subunit gene expression.

Only registered users can translate articles

Recently, we have reported that a Prophet of Pit-1 homeodomain factor, Prop-1, is a novel transcription factor for the porcine follicle-stimulating hormone beta subunit (FSHbeta) gene. This study subsequently aimed to examine the role of Prop-1 in the gene expression of two other porcine

[Pituitary germinoma and lymphocytic hypophysitis: a pitfall. Report of two cases].

Only registered users can translate articles

We report two cases of pituitary germinomas in two young men aged 13 and 21, revealed by insipidus diabetes associated with visual field defects or hypopituitarism. Neuroimaging of the first case was initially normal, then showed an infiltration of the stalk; the lesion of the second case appeared

Sweat and vitamin D status in congenital, lifetime, untreated GH deficiency.

Only registered users can translate articles

A reciprocal relationship exists between the skin and the GH/IGF-I axis. Skin produces both IGF- I and vitamin D, and GH and IGF-I exert several actions in the skin. Reduced sweating and altered phosphor-calcium homeostasis are occasionally reported in subjects with GH deficiency

Factors of mineral homeostasis impairment and bone mineral density loss in women with central hypogonadism

Only registered users can translate articles

Objective: The aims of the study were to estimate markers of mineral turnover and bone mineral density (BMD) in young women with central hypogonadism (CH) in comparison with healthy young and postmenopausal women, and to reveal the possible impact of different factors on BMD.Method: We

Infantile Lhermitte-Duclos Disease Treated Successfully With Rapamycin.

Only registered users can translate articles

Lhermitte-Duclos disease is a rare hamartomatous tumor of the cerebellum resulting from a mutation in the phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) gene: it has been reported in fewer than 10 infants. Rapamycin treatment has not yet been described in Lhermitte-Duclos disease. The infant underwent shunt

Two new Brazilian patients with Gómez-López-Hernández syndrome: reviewing the expanded phenotype with molecular insights.

Only registered users can translate articles

Gómez-López-Hernández (GLH) syndrome or cerebello-trigeminal dysplasia is a neurocutaneous syndrome whose etiology is unknown at the present time. We report two additional Brazilian patients, including the oldest one known to date (age 29). Here, we review the expanded phenotype in four patients

Low-dose hydrocortisone replacement therapy is associated with improved bone remodelling balance in hypopituitary male patients.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Glucocorticoid (GC) therapy is associated with adverse effects on bone metabolism, yet the effects of different GC physiological replacement regimens in hypopituitarism are not well characterised. We aimed to assess the effect of three hydrocortisone (HC) replacement dose regimens on bone

Composite germ cell tumor and B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma arising in the sella turcica.

Only registered users can translate articles

We report the case of a composite malignant neoplasm consisting of germ cell tumor and B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma occurring in the sella turcica of a young girl who presented with hypopituitarism. Routine hematoxylin and eosin-stained sections of a resected suprasellar tumor demonstrated a
