Several distinct tumors can primarily originate from this area, the most common being meningiomas, gliomas, embryonal cell tumors, germ cell tumors, and craniopharyngiomas. In addition, a number of systemic and inflammatory disorders can also affect the parasellar region, most commonly involving the pituitary. These lesions have different pathologic characteristics and malignant potential according to the new World Health Organization CNS5 2021 classification. Signs and symptoms may be nonspecific and are mostly related to a mass effect on the surrounding anatomical structures and/or impairment of endocrine function, whereas the vast majority lack a secretory component. The mutational signature analysis based on advances in molecular techniques has recently enabled the identification of specific gene mutations or signaling pathway aberrations. These developments may serve as a powerful means to delineate the pathophysiology of these lesions and serve as a diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic tool, particularly for high-risk populations. Treatment options include surgery alone or in combination with radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and disease-specific medical therapy, in order to prevent recurrence or further tumor growth along with replacement of coexistent pituitary hormonal deficiencies. In this comprehensive review, we present the current state-of-the-art developments in the histopathology and molecular biology of parasellar lesions, which often represent a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge, that may be utilized by a dedicated multidisciplinary team for the diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment of these lesions.</p>","PeriodicalId":11544,"journal":{"name":"Endocrine reviews","volume":" ","pages":"880-911"},"PeriodicalIF":22.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141765738","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Current assessment of GC status is primarily clinical, often in conjunction with serum cortisol values, which may be stimulated or suppressed depending on the GC disturbance being assessed. In the setting of extreme perturbations in cortisol levels ie, markedly low or high levels, symptoms and signs of GC dysfunction may be overt. However, when disturbances in cortisol GC status values are less extreme, such as when assessing optimization of a GC replacement regimen, signs and symptoms can be more subtle or nonspecific. Current tools for assessing GC status are best suited to identifying profound disturbances but may lack sensitivity for confirming optimal GC status. Moreover, single cortisol values do not necessarily reflect an individual's GC status, as they are subject to inter- and intraindividual variation and do not take into account the pulsatile nature of cortisol secretion, variation in binding proteins, or local tissue concentrations as dictated by 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase activity, as well as GC receptor sensitivity. In the present review, we evaluate possible alternative methods for the assessment of GC status that do not solely rely on the measurement of circulating cortisol levels. We discuss the potential of changes in metabolomic profiles, micro RNA, gene expression, and epigenetic and other novel biomarkers such as growth differentiating factor 15 and osteocalcin, which could in the future aid in the objective classification of GC status.</p>","PeriodicalId":11544,"journal":{"name":"Endocrine reviews","volume":" ","pages":"795-817"},"PeriodicalIF":22.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11581704/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141097139","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It may also present in those who are hypothyroid or euthyroid. The characteristic clinical manifestations of TED, chemosis, lid swelling, proptosis, and diplopia, are driven by a combination of inflammation and extracellular matrix modification. It has recently emerged that 1 of the major drivers of this molecular signature is the overexpression of the IGF-1 receptor [IGF-1R]) on key effector cells in TED pathogenesis. The overexpression of the IGF-1R is coupled with a dysregulation of the IGF-1R axis, which links other pathways that modulate inflammation, such as fibrosis and extracellular matrix organization, in patients with TED. This overexpression is also found to persist from the acute stage into the chronic phase. Teprotumumab, a fully human IgG1 monoclonal antibody that inhibits the IGF-1R, recently gained approval in the United States for the treatment of TED. In phase 2 and phase 3 clinical studies, teprotumumab showed efficacy in reducing inflammation, proptosis, diplopia, and burden on quality of life in patients who were treated. Postintroduction studies have confirmed the results of the phase 2 and phase 3 studies. Since 2020, more than 5800 patients have been treated with teprotumumab, and it appears to be well tolerated.

The iodide cycle in thyroid hormone synthesis consists of a series of transport, oxidation, organification, and binding/coupling steps in thyroid follicular cells. Common sources of iodine include the consumption of an iodine-rich diet or iodine-fortified foods, the administration of amiodarone, iodine-containing supplements, or iodinated contrast media, and other miscellaneous sources. Methods to assess population iodine status include the measurement of urinary iodine concentrations, blood thyroglobulin levels, prevalence of elevated neonatal thyrotropin levels, and thyroid volume. Although excessive iodine intake or exposure is generally well tolerated, an acute iodine load may result in thyroid dysfunction (hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism) in certain susceptible individuals due to the failure to escape from the Wolff-Chaikoff effect and to the Jod-Basedow phenomenon, respectively. In this review, we discuss the associations between excessive iodine intake or exposure, with particular focus on iodinated contrast media as a common source of excess iodine in health care settings, and risks of incident thyroid dysfunction. We also summarize the risks of iodine excess in vulnerable populations and review current guidelines regarding the screening and monitoring of iodinated contrast-induced thyroid dysfunction.

Although the effects of these drugs on the human endocrine system have been studied for decades, attention on their related clinical consequences, particularly on the hypothalamic-pituitary system and bone health, has intensified over recent years. This Statement appraises research data related to the impact of opioids on the gonadal and adrenal function. Whereas hypogonadism is well recognized as a side effect of opioids, the significance of their inhibitory actions on the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal system and the occurrence of clinically relevant adrenal insufficiency is not fully elucidated. The often-inconsistent results of studies investigating how opioids affect the secretion of GH, prolactin, arginine vasopressin, and oxytocin are assessed. The accumulating evidence of opioid actions on bone metabolism and their negative sequelae on bone mineral density and risk of fracture are also reviewed. In each section, available data on diagnostic and management approaches for opioid endocrine sequelae are described. This Statement highlights a plethora of gaps in research associated with the effects and clinical consequences of opioids on the endocrine system. It is anticipated that addressing these gaps will improve the care of people using or misusing opioids worldwide.

The IGF system components are evolutionarily conserved, underscoring the importance of understanding this system in physiology and pathophysiology. This review will briefly describe the different components of the IGF system and then discuss past and current literature regarding the IGFs and aging, with a focus on cellular senescence, model organisms of aging, centenarian genetics, and three age-related diseases - pulmonary fibrosis, Alzheimer's disease, and macular degeneration - in appropriate murine models and in humans.

It is now recognized as a separate pathological entity from the adamantinomatous type. PCPs are benign tumors, classified as WHO grade 1, characterized by non-keratinizing squamous epithelium. They typically grow as solid and round papillomatous masses or as unilocular cysts with a cauliflower-like excrescence. PCPs primarily occur in adults (95%), with increased frequency in males (60%) and predominantly affect the hypothalamus. Over 80% of these tumors are located in the third ventricle, expanding either above an anatomically intact infundibulum (strictly third ventricle tumors) or within the infundibulo-tuberal region of the third ventricle floor. Clinical manifestations commonly include visual deficits and a wide range of psychiatric disturbances (45% of patients), such as memory deficits and odd behavior. MRI can identify up to 50% of PCPs by the presence of a basal duct-like recess. Surgical management is challenging, requiring complex approaches to the third ventricle and posing significant risk of hypothalamic injury. The endoscopic endonasal approach allows radical tumor resection and yields more favorable patient outcomes. Of intriguing pathogenesis, over 90% of PCPs harbor the somatic BRAFV600E mutation, which activates the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK/ERK) signaling pathway.

Optimal 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) levels remain debated. Varying recommendations from different societies arise from evaluating different clinical or public health approaches. The lack of assay standardization also poses challenges in interpreting data from available studies, hindering rational data pooling and meta-analyses. Beyond the well-known skeletal features, interest in vitamin D's extraskeletal effects has led to clinical trials on cancer, cardiovascular risk, respiratory effects, autoimmune diseases, diabetes, and mortality. The initial negative results are likely due to enrollment of vitamin D-replete individuals. Subsequent post hoc analyses have suggested, nevertheless, potential benefits in reducing cancer incidence, autoimmune diseases, cardiovascular events, and diabetes. Oral administration of vitamin D is the preferred route. Parenteral administration is reserved for specific clinical situations. Cholecalciferol is favored due to safety and minimal monitoring requirements.

Nearly half of patients with pituitary gigantism have an identifiable genetic cause. X-linked acrogigantism (X-LAG; 10% of pituitary gigantism) typically begins during infancy and can lead to the tallest individuals described. In the 10 years since its discovery, about 40 patients have been identified. Patients with X-LAG usually develop mixed GH and prolactin macroadenomas with occasional hyperplasia that secrete copious amounts of GH, and frequently prolactin. Circulating GH-releasing hormone is also elevated in a proportion of patients. X-LAG is caused by constitutive or sporadic mosaic duplications at chromosome Xq26.3 that disrupt the normal chromatin architecture of a topologically associating domain (TAD) around the orphan G-protein-coupled receptor, GPR101. This leads to the formation of a neo-TAD in which GPR101 overexpression is driven by ectopic enhancers (\"TADopathy\"). X-LAG has been seen in 3 families due to transmission of the duplication from affected mothers to sons. GPR101 is a constitutively active receptor with an unknown natural ligand that signals via multiple G proteins and protein kinases A and C to promote GH/prolactin hypersecretion. Treatment of X-LAG is challenging due to the young patient population and resistance to somatostatin analogs; the GH receptor antagonist pegvisomant is often an effective option.
