Pituitary-interrenal interaction in zebrafish interrenal organ development.
To further elucidate pituitary adrenal interactions during development, we studied the organogenesis of the interrenal organ, the teleost homolog of the mammalian adrenal gland, in zebrafish. To this end we compared wild-type zebrafish interrenal development with that of mutants lacking pituitary cell types including corticotrophs. In addition, we studied the effects of ACTH receptor (Mc2r) kno...
متن کاملTreatment and Outcome of Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia: 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency
The use of glucocorticoids to treat individuals with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) was first reported by both Wilkins and Bartter in 1950. Since that time, the care of these patients has improved dramatically, and through the efforts of dedicated medical researchers, it continues to improve today. With early detection by newborn screening, initiation of treatment in infants with salt-was...
متن کاملRapid second-tier molecular genetic analysis for congenital adrenal hyperplasia attributable to steroid 21-hydroxylase deficiency.
BACKGROUND Neonatal screening for steroid 21-hydroxylase (CYP21) deficiency is performed to identify congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). The immunologic assay for 17alpha-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP) has a high rate of false positives. We assessed the potential for increasing the specificity for CAH by use of a second step involving analysis of the CYP21 gene. METHODS Between January 1999 a...

متن کامل[Congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to steroid 21-hydroxylase deficiency].
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia is a general term applied to a group of several inherited enzymatic defects of cortisol biosynthesis. The most frequent cause of this disease is by far 21-hydroxylase deficiency which is considered one of the commonest metabolic disorders. The degree to which the activity of this enzyme is diminished correlates with the severity of congenital adrenal hyperplasia a...
