fibrous dysplasia of bone/비만증

Resistant hypertension, secondary hypertension, and hypertensive crises are uncommon but potentially dangerous forms of hypertension that are associated with an increased risk of complications such as myocardial infarction, heart failure, stroke, and renal failure. Appropriate diagnostic screening

Melorheostosis is a benign, noninheritable bone dysplasia characterized by its classic radiographic features of dense, flowing hyperostosis. It frequently affects one limb, usually the lower extremity and rarely the axial skeleton. A 26-year-old lady with obesity, polycystic ovarian syndrome and

Gs is the ubiquitously expressed heterotrimeric G protein that couples receptors to the effector enzyme adenylyl cyclase and is required for receptor-stimulated intracellular cAMP generation. Activated receptors promote the exchange of GTP for GDP on the Gs alpha-subunit (Gs(alpha)), resulting in Gs

The heterotrimeric G protein G(s) couples hormone receptors (as well as other receptors) to the effector enzyme adenylyl cyclase and is therefore required for hormone-stimulated intracellular cAMP generation. Receptors activate G(s) by promoting exchange of GTP for GDP on the G(s) alpha-subunit

The endocrine role of the skeleton-which is impaired in human diseases including osteoporosis, obesity and diabetes-has been highlighted previously. In these diseases, the role of AMPK, a sensor and regulator of energy metabolism, is of biological and clinical importance. Since AMPK's main catalytic
