Lung adenocarcinoma metastasis within a pituitary neuroendocrine tumor: a case report with review of literature
Endocr J. 2023 Dec 29. doi: 10.1507/endocrj.EJ23-0372. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCollision tumors involving the metastasis of malignant neoplasms to pituitary neuroendocrine tumors (PitNETs) are extremely rare. We herein report a case involving a patient with lung adenocarcinoma metastasis within a PitNET who exhibited relatively rapid progression of neurological symptoms. A 75-year-old man who underwent tumor resection 36 and 18 years prior to presentation for bladder and colon cancer, respectively, without recurrence presented with bitemporal hemianopsia, ptosis, and diplopia of the right eye. Subsequent magnetic res...

Effects of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy on nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and TGF- β signaling pathway
This study enrolled 36 severely obese patients who underwent LSG at our hospital from January 2020 to April 2022. As a pilot study, proteomic analysis was conducted on six patients using serum collected before and at 6 months after LSG, and significantly fluctuating proteins were extracted. Subsequently, verification by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using collected serum was performed on the remaining 30 patients. The mean weight of enrolled patients was 118.5 kg. Proteomic analysis identified 1,912 proteins, many of which were related to the TGF-β signaling pathway. Among these proteins, we focused on five TG...

Inhibitory effects of estetrol on the invasion and migration of immortalized human endometrial stromal cells
Endocr J. 2023 Dec 28. doi: 10.1507/endocrj.EJ23-0397. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTEndometriosis, a common gynecological disorder characterized by the growth of endometrial gland and stroma outside the uterus, causes several symptoms such as dysmenorrhea, hypermenorrhea, and chronic abdominal pain. 17β estradiol (E2) stimulates the growth of endometriotic lesions. Although estetrol (E4), produced by human fetal liver, is also a natural estrogen, it may have the opposite effects on endometriotic cells. We investigated different effects of E4 and E2 on the invasion and migration of immortalized human endometrial stromal c...
