Ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) syndrome is a rare cause of the Cushing's syndrome. The occurrence of the ectopic ACTH syndrome presenting with severe hypokalaemia, metabolic alkalosis, and hypertension has been highlighted in case reports. However, presentation with lower gastrointestinal...

Allgrove (Triple A) syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by cardinal features of adrenal insufficiency due to adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) resistance, achalasia, and alacrimia. It is frequently associated with neurological manifestations like polyneuropathy. Since its first description...

CONGENITAL ADRENAL HYPERPLASIA DUE TO 21-HYDROXYLASE DEFICIENCY PRESENTING AS ADRENAL INCIDENTALOMA: A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW AND META-ANALYSIS.

Endocrine practice : official journal of the American College of Endocrinology and the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists

ACTH Regulation of Adrenal SR-B1.

Frontiers in endocrinology

Shen WJ, Azhar S, Kraemer FB.

Front Endocrinol (Lausanne). 2016 May 13;7:42. doi: 10.3389/fendo.2016.00042. eCollection 2016.

The adrenal gland is one of the prominent sites for steroid hormone synthesis. Lipoprotein-derived cholesterol esters (CEs) delivered via SR-B1 constitute the dominant source of cholesterol for steroidogenesis, particularly in rodents. Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) stimulates steroidogenesis through downstream actions...
