Natural history, treatment, and long-term follow up of patients with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2B: an international, multicentre, retrospective study.
(2019-03)BACKGROUND: Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2B is a rare syndrome caused mainly by Met918Thr germline RET mutation, and characterised by medullary thyroid carcinoma, phaeochromocytoma, and extra-endocrine features. Data ... -
Pituitary Carcinoma in a Patient with an SDHB Mutation.
(2017-12)We present the first case of pituitary carcinoma occurring in a patient with a succinate dehydrogenase subunit B (SDHB) mutation and history of paraganglioma. She was initially treated for a glomus tumour with external ... -
Circulating aryl hydrocarbon receptor-interacting protein (AIP) is independent of GH secretion.
(2019-04)Background: Aryl hydrocarbon receptor-interacting protein (AIP) is evolutionarily conserved and expressed widely throughout the organism. Loss-of-function AIP mutations predispose to young-onset pituitary adenomas. AIP ... -
Prevalence of Diabetes on Santa Cruz Island in Galapagos Archipelago.
(2015-06-18)This was an observational study offering a screening program for diabetes in a health clinic in Puerto Ayora town on Santa Cruz Island to determine the prevalence of this disorder and identify those at risk. A 1-month ... -
Radiological Surveillance Screening in Asymptomatic Succinate Dehydrogenase Mutation Carriers

Proteomic Analysis of the Human Anterior Pituitary Gland.
(Mary Ann Liebert, 2018-12-20)The pituitary function is regulated by a complex system involving the hypothalamus and biological networks within the pituitary. Although the hormones secreted from the pituitary have been well studied, comprehensive ... -
The current landscape of European registries for rare endocrine conditions
(BioScientifica, 2019-01)Objective To identify cross-border international registries for rare endocrine conditions that are led from Europe and to understand the extent of engagement with these registries within a network of reference centres ... -
Germline and mosaic mutations causing pituitary tumours: genetic and molecular aspects.
(Bioscientifica, 2019-02-01)While 95% of pituitary adenomas arise sporadically without a known inheritable predisposing mutation, in about 5% of the cases they can arise in a familial setting, either isolated (familial isolated pituitary adenoma or ... -
Novel methods in adrenal research: a metabolomics approach.
(Springer Link, 2019-02-06)Metabolic alterations have implications in a spectrum of tissue functions and disease. Aided by novel molecular biological and computational tools, our understanding of physiological and pathological processes underpinning ...
