Thyroid hormone therapy modulates hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal axis.
To observe the influence of thyroid hormone therapy on hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, a group of 14 athyreotic women due to thyroid cancer treatment were studied before and after thyroid suppression therapy with thyroxine (T4). Changes in plasma adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) and cortisol levels in response to human corticotropin-releasing hormone (hCRH; 100µg, i.v.) were estimated under...
متن کاملThe hypothalamo-pituitary–gonadal axis
This review provides an outline of how our understanding of the neuroendocrine control of the hypothalamo-pituitary–gonadal axis has evolved since the publication of Geoffrey Harris’ renowned monograph in 1955. Particular attention is directed to the neurobiology underlying pulsatile GnRH release from the hypothalamus, the neuroendocrine control of ovarian cycles, puberty and seasonality of gon...
متن کاملThe Pituitary-Thyroid Axis in Acromegaly
The pituitary-Thyroid axis of 12 Acromegalic patients was evaluated by measurement of the concentration (Total and free of thyroxine T4, T3 and revers T3 (rT3) and TSH, GH and prolactin before and after in stimulation with TRH. Using an ultrasensitive method of TSH measurement (IRMA) basal serum TSH levels of patients (0.76, 0.07-l.90mlU/L) were found slightly but significantly (P < 0.01), low...
متن کاملDevelopmental Disorders of the Hypothalamo-Pituitary Axis
Short stature is defined by a height that lies <-2SDS below the mean. Recent molecular advances have led to the identification of the underlying aetiology in a number of cases that were previously believed to be “idiopathic”. This review will briefly discuss the advances in the field of pituitary development and the GH-IGF-1 axis that have led to the unravelling of the genetic basis to a number...
متن کاملThe hypothalamo-pituitary-thyroid (HPT) axis: a target of nonpersistent ortho-substituted PCB congeners.
Coplanar polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) cause adverse effects in developing and adult animals. Less is known about the effects of nonplanar ortho-substituted PCBs. We investigated the effects of 2 nonplanar PCB congeners, 95 (2,3,6-2',5'-penta CB) or 101 (2,4,5-2',5'-penta CB), and estradiol on selected endocrine parameters. In Study 1, weanling female Sprague-Dawley (S-D) rats were given a s...
