“…Abdominal computed tomography (CT) revealed a heterogeneous left adrenal mass 6 cm in diameter; following hormone testing, 123I-MIBG scintigraphy was performed to determine the presence of pheochromocytoma, which confirmed eccentric uptake by a large left adrenal gland mass. Chest CT and PET-CT confirmed metastatic lymphadenopathy; therefore, endobronchial ultrasound transbronchial needle aspiration was performed. …”

Characterization of the C5H11ORF96 gene in chickens: cloning, tissue distribution and investigation of its potential function in stress response regulation by Yiping Wan, Jiannan Zhang, Xiao Zhang, Jiliang He, Ningkun Shi, Yuanyou Li, Juan Li, Yajun Wang

“…Our results showed that: (1) cC5H11ORF96 cDNA encodes a 120 amino acids protein, which shares high sequence identity with that of birds, mammals, reptiles, frogs and fish; (2) cC5H11ORF96 has a fully conserved RFKTQP motif and high proportion of serine, indicating its multiple potential phosphorylation sites; (3) cC5H11ORF96 is widely expressed in various chicken tissues, with high expression levels in the parathyroid gland, adrenal gland, and pituitary; (4) glucocorticoids (GCs) and stress significantly upregulate C5H11ORF96 mRNA and protein expression in the chicken pituitary and hypothalamus, suggesting its involvement in regulating stress response by influencing the negative feedback of GCs on the HPA axis in chickens. …”

Association between METTL14 gene polymorphisms and risk of ovarian endometriosis by Zijun Zhou, Zijun Zhou, Youkun Jie, Xianyue Hu, Xianyue Hu, Guange Chen, Yanjing Bao, Yanjing Bao, Zhenbo OuYang, Liangzhi Wu, Tianyang Gao, Qiushi Zhang, Qiushi Zhang, Wenfeng Hua, Wenfeng Hua

“…Expression quantitative trait loci analysis revealed a significant association between the rs9884978 GA/AA genotypes and elevated METTL14 mRNA levels in fibroblasts and adrenal gland. Conversely, the rs298982 GA/GG genotypes were significantly associated with reduced METTL14 mRNA levels in the nucleus accumbens and frontal cortex.ConclusionOur results demonstrate that METTL14 polymorphisms are associated with susceptibility to ovarian endometriosis among Chinese women.…”
