Summary: This study aimed to test extracellular matrix metalloproteinase inducer (EMMPRIN) as a potential marker of high risk vulnerable plaques in patients with carotid artery stenosis. EMMPRIN levels were analyzed in pre-operative serum samples and it was found that patients with high risk plaques had increased levels of EMMPRIN. The combination of EMMPRIN with clinical risk factors improved the prediction of vulnerable plaques in asymptomatic patients.

Summary: This study aimed to validate the differential DNA methylation and MAX protein expression profiles between nonfunctional pituitary adenoma (NFPA) and growth hormone-secreting pituitary adenoma (GHPA). Results showed that GHPA exhibited more hypomethylation events across all known MAX binding sites, with 1,551 sites having significantly different methylation patterns near potentially MAX-regulated promoter regions. Gene ontology analysis suggested involvement in cellular proliferation, tumor invasion, and hormonal secretion. GHPA also demonstrated significantly increased expression of MAX protein compared to NFPA.

Summary: In industrialized countries, changes in lifestyle and diet have caused an increase in obesity and metabolic disorders. Excessive lipid deposition in organs and tissues with limited capacity for lipid storage disrupts metabolic function and increases the risk of metabolic diseases and complications. Pituitary disorders can indirectly affect ectopic lipid deposition by altering lipid metabolism and insulin sensitivity, as well as directly influencing energy metabolism through specific hormonal effects. This review provides information on the impact of pituitary disorders on ectopic fat stores and explores the potential pathophysiological mechanisms involved in hormone action in ectopic lipid metabolism.
