Adrenal steroid profiling, including 17α-OH progesterone (17OHP), 11-deoxycortisol (S), Δ4-androstenedione (Δ4-A) and cortisol (F) in blood spots by tandem mass spectrometry, is used for newborn screening to detect congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). Pre-analytical sample processing is critical for assay specificity

We describe an ultra high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC MS/MS) method suitable for a routine laboratory to determine endogenous and exogenous glucocorticoids in plasma, plasma ultrafiltrate, urine and saliva in a single analytical run. After addition of a
A 2-year-old boy with a testicular mass. Diagnosis: testicular tumor of adrenogenital syndrome due to 11-beta-hydroxylase deficiency.
Although there is substantial evidence that membrane progestin receptors (mPRs) perform a critical physiological role in meiotic maturation of fish oocytes, it is unknown whether they are also intermediaries in progestin signaling in the surrounding follicular cells. Here, we show
Lamprey endocrinology is not ancestral.
