Effects of semaglutide, PYY3-36, and empagliflozin on the adrenal gland transcriptome in diet induced obese rats

Kloock Simon , Oertel Marie , Kohlhaas Michael , Nickel Alexander , Fassnacht Martin , Christian G. Ziegler , Dischinger Ulrich

Background: An activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis is a common observation in obese individuals. GLP-1 agonists, such as semaglutide, and SGLT-2 inhibitors, such as empagliflozin, are well known to be beneficial in obesity, while other incretins, like peptide tyrosine tyrosine 3-36 (PYY 3-36), might be also useful for the treatment of obesity. However, the effect of these substances on the adrenal gland is largely unknown. We directly compared the effec...

Factored aldosterone can help distinguish mineralocorticoid resistance from aldosterone deficit hypoaldosteronism

Gabriel Ruiz Sanchez Jorge , Calle Alfonso , Angel Rubio Herrera Miguel , Paz de Miguel Novoa Maria , Gomez Hoyos Emilia , Runkle Isabel

Introduction: Hypoaldosteronism can be induced by a deficit of aldosterone production (AldDef) or a mineralocorticoid resistance (MinRes). Experts have proposed to use hyperkalemia-based aldosterone values for this purpose. However, there is no a range of aldosterone values indicating one of this type of hypoaldosteronism. In 2008, Adam W. R.1 hypothesized that the factored aldosterone (FAldo) could be useful differentiating hypoaldosteronism secondary to MinRes fro...

Are severe obese patients aging faster? The impact of severe obesity on different markers of biological age

Dudek Alicja , Zapała Barbara , Tylec Piotr , Ciszek Karol , Cyranka Katarzyna , Zgliczyński Wojciech , Major Piotr

Obesity is defined as a state of chronic low-grade inflammation. It is associated with pro-inflammatory activity of visceral adipose tissue, regarded as a neuroendocrine organ that secretes cytotoxins and other pro-inflammatory factors, impairing metabolic pathways. The corollary of these changes is the risk of developing comorbidities. There are many similarities in the mechanisms of ageing and in obesity. The process of ageing leads to the accumulation of pro-inflammatory fa...

St. John’s wort as an example of the naturalistic fallacy: natural things are not necessarily good things

Rios-Gomez Carlos , Hernandez-Lazaro Alba , Jose de Leon-Durango Ricardo , Santana-Ojeda Borja , Arnas-Leon Claudia , Kuzior Agnieszka , Acosta-Calero Carmen , del Pino Ortiz-Hernandez Catherine , Maria Perez-Rivero Jennifer , Javier Martinez Martin Francisco

Introduction/Aim: New oral anticoagulant drugs such as the factor Xa inhibitor rivaroxaban are often preferred to the classic coumarins because they do not need frequent blood-test monitoring and have fever interactions with other drugs and foodstuffs. They are not, however, interaction free. Rivaroxaban is metabolized by oxidative degradation catalyzed by CYP3A4/5 and CYP2J2; it is also a substrate of the P-gp and ABCG2 efflux transporter proteins. CYP3A4 activity enhancers s...

Role of insulin therapy in weight gain: lessons from islet transplantation in type1 diabetes

Romain Bulois , Jannin Arnaud , Defrance Frederique , Mapihan Kristell Le , Mikael Chetboun , Julie Kerr-Conte , Francois Pattou , Vantyghem Marie-Christine

Background: Weight gain in type 1 diabetes (T1D) patients has become a clinical problem due to less strict diets and more stringent glycemic targets. Thus, the number of overweight T1D in the USA increased from 3.4% in 1988 to 22.7% in 2007. Hyperinsulinism is involved in the genesis of obesity but in T1D, the impact of insulin therapy in weight gain is not established. Islet transplantation, now reimbursed in France, makes it possible to interrupt insulin. The aim of this wor...

Pituitary ACTH Secreting Carcinoma or metastasized Small Cell Pulmonary Carcinoma?

Lopes Sara , Margarida Monteiro Ana , Sa Juliana , Matos Catarina , Machado Catarina , Ribeiro Pedro , Almeida Rui , Marques Olinda

Pituitary carcinomas are rare and represent a challenge in clinical practice. Most secondary tumour localizations are intracranial and spinal, followed by liver, cervical lymph node, bone and, rarely, lung. PC frequently exhibit resistance to most usual therapies and the mean survival time is usually <4 years once metastases have been identified. Ectopic ACTH Syndrome is, in up to 50% cases, caused by lung tumours including carcinoids or Small Cell Lung Carcinomas (SCLC). ...

Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), known for its role in fetal development and female reproduction, is also present in adult and elderly men in considerable amounts. In recent years, controversial findings regarding relations to age, other hormones, and BMI (possibly based on a dilutional effect due to higher blood volume) have been discussed. To date, little is known of its clinical relevance in this population. We aimed to further investigate AMH levels in an aging male popu...

Polycythemia vera and feminizing hormone treatment in an individual Assigned Male at Birth (AMAB): a prickly situation

Parazzoli Chiara , Delle Donne Elisa , Federici Silvia , Amer Myriam , Persani Luca , Bonomi Marco , Bonadonna Stefania

Introduction: Feminizing hormone therapy (HT) for male-assigned at birth (AMAB) includes estrogens, often in combination with anti-androgens. Several studies have reported an increased incidence of cardiovascular diseases and venous thromboembolism in AMAB receiving estrogens. Indeed, procoagulant changes induced by estrogen-based HT occur in transwomen as well as in cisgender individuals. Therefore, using estrogen in gender-affirming HT is relatively contraindicated in those ...
