introduction nonclassical congenital adrenal hyperplasia (cah) is characterized by sufficient cortisol and aldosterone production at the cost of androgen overproduction. hydrocortisone or dexamethasone in supraphysiological doses are current treatment; however, their downside is suppression of endogenous cortisol production resulting in corticosteroid dependency. we aimed to treat children with...

the purpose of this research was to compare the effect of an exhaustive exercise session on the concentration of serum testosterone and cortisol and cortisol/testosterone ratio in the morning and the evening in female volleyball players. for this purpose, 12 female volleyball players (mean age 23.26 years, mean weight 58.8 kg, mean height 166.49 cm and at least four years of activity) participa...

Cortisol is a steroid hormone that regulates wide range of vital processes. Its level changes with diurnal rhythm and reacts to stress. Measurement cortisol levels still complex multi-step process. A reversible washing-free registration method required. Here we describe metal-enhanced fluorescence assay based on displacement dye labeled BSA-cortisol conjugate from the immune immobilized golden ...

Human serum albumin (HSA) is an important protein that carries variety of substances like some hormones and drugs in blood. Pharmacological studies of the interaction of many drugs and HSA are reported during several decades, specially recently years. Interaction of cortisol and fluoxetine hydrochloride (FLX) (as a common anti-stress drug) with HSA (as their carrier in blood) has been studied s...

introduction the dexamethasone test has been widely used for diagnosing hypercortisolism. materials and methods we assessed the relationship between the basal and suppressed cortisol values in urine and plasma during a low-dose dexamethasone test in patients with proved cushing&apos;s disease. results a statistically highly significant correlation was found (for urine cortisol: r = 0.66, p <0.0...
