Propranolol therapy for ectopic β-adrenergic receptors in adrenal Cushing's syndrome.

Open access

Abstract

Most patients with corticotropin-independent Cushing's syndrome have an adrenal adenoma or carcinoma,1 but a few have bilateral adrenal hyperplasia. Three patients with Cushing's syndrome and corticotropin-independent bilateral adrenal hyperplasia2–4 and two patients with adrenal adenomas5,6 in whom food stimulated cortisol secretion have been described; the abnormal adrenal tissues in these patients aberrantly overexpressed receptors for gastric inhibitory polypeptide.6,7 We describe a patient with Cushing's syndrome and corticotropin-independent bilateral adrenal hyperplasia in whom endogenous catecholamines, acting through an ectopic adrenal β-adrenergic receptor, stimulated cortisol secretion; the hyperadrenocorticism was inhibited by β-blockade. Case Report A 56-year-old man presented with . . .

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
