Effects of recombinant human growth hormone on fat distribution in patients with human immunodeficiency virus-associated wasting.
Tai VW, Schambelan M, Algren H, Shayevich C, Mulligan K.
Department of Medicine, University of California, San Francisco, USA.
In light of current interest in recombinant human growth hormone (GH) as a treatment for fat distribution abnormalities, we retrospectively evaluated regional changes in fat and lean body mass in a subset of subjects who participated in randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials of GH for treatment of wasting. Treatment with a pharmacologic dose of GH (0.1 mg/kg/day) resulted in significant and sustained increases in lean body mass and losses of fat in both the trunk and appendicular regions.

Myxedema ascites in the posttransplant setting: case report.

Ascites is a rare but important complication of hypothyroidism. Because of the rarity of the disease and the inconsistency of symptoms associated with hypothyroidism, patients often go undiagnosed for months. Institution of thyroid replacement hormone results in rapid and complete resolution of ascites. Here we present a case of myxedema ascites that presented in a 52-year-old man 4 months after allogeneic bone marrow transplant (BMT). Diagnoses initially considered in the differential included the common post-BMT complications, namely, hepatic veno-occlusive disease, graft vs. host disease, and infection. However, posttransplant patients are also at risk for illnesses unrelated to their underlying diagnosis or transplant procedure, including hypothyroidism. This case illustrates the importance of considering a broad differential diagnosis in posttransplant patients, especially those in whom the clinical course is atypical. 2002 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

Variation in plasma lipids during the reproductive cycle of male and female desert tortoises, Gopherus agassizii.

Plasma triacylglycerol, phospholipid, cholesterol, cholesterol esters, fatty acids, and total lipids were measured in 30 female and 20 male desert tortoises (Gopherus agassizii) during the annual reproductive cycle in the eastern Mojave desert, Nevada. Blood samples were collected at monthly intervals from April to October. All lipid fractions, with the exception of free fatty acids, were significantly higher in female plasma than in male plasma in all months of the year. In contrast, free fatty acids were higher in male plasma than in female plasma in all months. The seasonal pattern in estradiol secretion mirrored that of triacylglycerol, phospholipid, cholesterol, and total lipid, all of which showed a significant correlation with the hormone. Estradiol and the vitellogenesis-associated lipids were all significantly higher in August, September, October, and April than in June. The seasonal variation in cholesterol ester levels in females did not correlate with any of the reproductive events and did not appear to be involved in yolk precursor formation. Total lipid in males showed a negative correlation with testosterone and spermatogenesis. Individual fatty acids in the June and August samples (at the highest and lowest estradiol levels) were compared in male and female plasma. The percent of C18:3n3, C18:2n6, C18:1n9, C20:5n3, and C22:5 were significantly higher in the June female plasma sample than in the August sample. Docosahexanoic (C22:6n3) acid was barely detectable in female plasma in either month. 2002 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

Presence of immunoreactive corticotropin-releasing hormone and cortisol molecules in invertebrate haemocytes and lower and higher vertebrate thymus.
Ottaviani E, Franchini A, Franceschi C.
Department of Animal Biology, University of Modena, Italy.
Corticotropin-releasing hormone- and cortisol-like molecules are present in the haemocytes of different molluscan species and in the epithelial cells, interdigitating cells and macrophages - but not in the lymphocytes - of fish, frog, chicken and rat thymus. Taking into account the fact that other pro-opiomelanocortin-derived peptides, such as adrenocorticotropin hormone, are present in the haemocytes and thymus of the same species, these results complete the list of stress mediators present in molluscan haemocytes and further support the hypothesis that, although the prototype stress response we have demonstrated in invertebrates is concentrated in a single cell, i.e. the haemocyte, it is similar to the response seen in vertebrates. Moreover, the data presented here are compatible with the hypothesis that an evolutionary, conserved stress response can occur locally with a single organ, e.g. the thymus, in which all the main mediators of this biological response, such as corticotropin-releasing hormone, adrenocorticotropin hormone and glucocorticoids, are present. The implications of these findings for the physiology of thymus and stress response may be far reaching.

Juvenoid hormone methyl farnesoate is a sex determinant in the crustacean Daphnia magna.
Olmstead AW, Leblanc GA.
Department of Environmental & Molecular Toxicology, North Carolina State University, Raleigh, North Carolina 27695-7633, USA.
Daphnids (Daphnia magna) utilize cyclic parthenogenesis as a reproductive strategy. During periods of abundant resources, these organisms reproduce asexually. In response to environmental cues that signal the onset of environmental adversity, daphnids produce males and reproduce sexually. The environmental cues that stimulate the sexual reproductive phase are well known; however, the endocrine signals that transduce these environmental cues remain unknown. The present study was undertaken to test the hypothesis that the crustacean juvenoid hormone, methyl farnesoate, is a male sex determinant in this species. Continuous exposure to aqueous concentrations of methyl farnesoate greater than approximately 30 nM stimulated a concentration-dependent production of male-containing broods of organisms. Short-term exposures to methyl farnesoate during periods of egg and embryo maturation revealed that male sex determination occurred during a specific 12-hour period of ovarian egg development. Exposure of eggs to 400 nM methyl farnesoate during this sensitive developmental period resulted in the production of all-male broods of offspring, while exposure to concentrations as low as 52 nM produced mixed broods of males and females. This active concentration range of methyl farnesoate is consistent with levels measured in the hemolymph of some decapod crustaceans. These results demonstrate that methyl farnesoate is capable of programming daphnid embryos to develop into males and is likely the endocrine factor responsible for initiating the sexual reproductive phase in these organisms. 2002 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

Hair loss is genetically influenced, but it is always difficult to predict. Overall, more than 50% of US men suffer hair loss by their age of 45. Men are more likely to lose hair than women. Hair Million offers an alternative solution to hair loss problems. Anecdotal evidence and personal experiences indicate the efficacy of this herbal blend in improveming age-related hair thinning and hair loss for a number of people who take it. The mechanism of action as to how Hair Million works to help stop hair loss, and promote hair growth is totally unknown. It is only known by anecdotal observations. There has been no clinical trials nor placebo controlled statistical analysis on the efficacy of Hair Million on hair loss and hair growth. Propecia is a clinically tested drug for the purpose of reversing hair loss.
