The development of a GLP protocol for the measurement of 17β-estradiol and testosterone in the H295R steroidogenesis assay, Test No 456

Murray Carol , McIntyre Angela , McKeever Connor , White Rebecca , McBrinn Rachel , Light Victoria , Brown Susan , Robinson Aron , Clark Graeme , Bingham Tilly

Regulators are concerned about the potential for environmental chemicals such as agrochemicals and their metabolites to perturb hormone systems. This has led to recommendations for the testing of potential endocrine disrupting chemicals1. The Steroidogenesis H295R assay is an in vitro cell model used to investigate compound effects on steroid hormone biosynthesis, specifically 17β-estradiol (E2) and testosterone (T). The human H295R adreno-carcinoma ce...

Clinical and demographic analysis of the structure of telemedicine "doctor-patient" consultations of the Endocrinology Research Centre

Gorbacheva Anna , Logvinova Oksana , Eremkina Anna , Mokrysheva Natalia

Rationale: The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the development of telemedicine technologies. Today there is evidence of the successful use of telemedicine in various areas of healthcare, particularly in endocrinology. At the same time, there is not enough information for efficient integration of telemedicine into the routine management of patients.Aim: The aim of this work was a clinical and demographic analysis of “doctor-patient” telemedici...

Exposure to the endocrine disruptor cadmium alters human aortic endothelial cells homeostasis

Catanzaro Giuseppina , Sabato Claudia , Bimonte Viviana Maria , Spinello Zaira , Po Agnese , Besharat Zein Mersini , Vacca Alessandra , Migliaccio Silvia , Ferretti Elisabetta

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) represent a complex and multifactorial issue that results from a combination of behavioural, genetic and environmental factors. Toxic metal contaminants, many of which act as endocrine disruptors (EDs), have been identified as potential risk factors for CVDs. Among EDs Cadmium (Cd), present both in cigarettes and in food, has been suggested to be cytotoxic on vascular endothelium, likely leading to blood pressure increase and vascular inflammatio...

Perception of training and job perspectives of the specialty of Endocrinology and Nutrition among final-year residents.

de Carlos Joaquin , Zabalza Luci , Murillo Ana Zugasti , Dolores Ballesteros-Pomar Maria

Introduction: Medical specialization model in Spain is carried out through specialized health training, through the residency program. Residents are a key element for the proper functioning of today’s National Health System. The aim of the study is to analyze, by an anonymous survey, the opinion of three aspects among final-year residents in Endocrinology and Nutrition (E&N): self-assessment of the knowledge acquired, working prospects, care and training consequences ...

Bisphenol-A and Pentocholorophenol Sodium Levels in Patients with Acne Rosacea

Demircioglu Deniz , Cinar Nese , Pektas Suzan Demir , Edgunlu Tuba , Unal Mustafa , Yazgan Aksoy Duygu

Objective: Rosacea is an inflammatory dermatosis. Telangiectasias, edema, erythema, and acneiform eruptions are the main symptoms. Several genetic and environmental factors have been linked to rosacea; however, the etiology of the disease is still not known. It is considered a systemic disease rather than a skin disorder. Endocrine-disrupting chemicals are substances people are exposed to through water, food, self-care products, and the environment. They interfere with normal ...

Histology of the diffuse endocrine system of the lungs in ontogenesis and in pathological conditions in uzbekistan

Adkhamova Madina , Goyibova Gulnoza , Karimova Dilfuza

Background: The study of fundamental questions related to the analysis of recent advances in the field of cellular and molecular pathways involved in lung organogenesis provides a basis for understanding the pathogenesis of acute and chronic diseases of this organ. Cells of the diffuse endocrine system - apudocytes (APUD) absorb the precursors of biogenic amines introduced from the outside and subject them to decarboxylation with further formation of biogenic amines and peptid...

Effect of nighttime melatonin intake on vitamin D levels

Fendri Sana , Manel Naifar , Ichrak Kamel , Omar Hammouda , Imen Bouzid , Mouna Turki , Fatma Ayadi

Introduction: Melatonin is involved in many physiological processes, including the regulation of circadian rhythms, sleep, antioxidant effect, aging, tumor growth, reproduction and bone formation. The latter function is also regulated by the metabolism of vitamin D. Our goal during this study is to detect a possible increase in vitamin D levels under the effect of exogenous melatonin.Participants and methods: Different anthropometric parameters were coll...

Recurrent hypoglycemia : looking for an unsual cause

Sara Chtioui , Sara Ijdda , Sanaa Rafi , Mghari Ghizlane EL , Ansari Nawal EL

Hypoglycemia in non-diabetic patients is a rare event, and autoimmune hypoglycemia with the presence of positive anti-insulin antibodies is even rarer.We report the case of a 15 years old non diabetic female patient, she was referred to our hospital for recurrent hypoglycemia for 2 weeks before admission to hospital, these are severe hypoglycemia with impaired consciousness. The first step was to eliminate the general causes and factitious hypoglycemia. ...

Di-Butyl-Phthalate (DBP) exposure impact on human masculine reproductive hormones. A review of literature

Nita Tiberiu , Paoloni-Giacobino Ariane , Stenz Ludwig , Vernez David , Hopf Nancy

Background: Phthalates are currently used in medical devices, adhesives as plasticizers. Masculine reproductive toxicity is the greatest concern associated with exposure, known as the “phthalate syndrome”. The European Chemicals Agency has recognized di-butyl-phthalate (DBP, CAS 84-74-2) as an endocrine disruptor with deleterious effects on reproductive hormones, with an estimated human intake of 0.84-5.22 μg/kg/day. Effects reported include the disruption of Se...

Vitamin D status in patients with adrenal tumors and previous COVID-19 infection

Alexandra Mohora Maria , Trifanescu Raluca , Toma Iustin- Daniel , Dusceac Roxana , Capatina Cristina , Niculescu Dan Alexandru , Schipor Sorina , Vladoiu Suzana Vilma , Poiana Catalina

Context: The current pandemic showed a great handling of the resources and research in order to find not only a way to cure but also to prevent and improve the course of the Covid-19 infection. Optimal vitamin D (VD) levels and treatment was seen as a potential aid due, in principal, to its immunomodulatory effect. The ACE-2 receptor is the key the virus uses for entering the body, but its location is not restricted to the lungs, it’s also found in the adrenal cortex. At ...
