Hypoaldosteronism in three sibs due to 18-dehydrogenase deficiency. Three sibs all presented in the early neonatal period with a salt-losing syndrome. The salt-losing form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia was diagnosed and appropriate treatment with glucocorticosteroids, mineralocorticosteroids, and additional dietary salt started. Although early life was maintained with difficulty, with age all3 children required decreasingamounts ofreplace- ment steroids to maintain normal plasma electrolyte balance. They were reinvestigated at the ages of 15 years and 8 years (twins), when cortisol synthesis and metabolism proved normal, but aldosterone synthesis was blocked by deficiency of 18-dehydro- genase. Rational treatment of these cases of a salt-losing syndrome in which aldo- sterone synthesis alone is blocked due to lack of the enzyme 18-dehydrogenase requires the administration of a mineralocorticosteroid drug only. Since deoxycor- ticosterone (acetate or pivalate) requires intramuscular administration, as life-long therapy oral fludrocortisone is preferable. Although fludrocortisone has glucocorti- coid activity, the 'hydrocortisone equivalent' effect of the small dosage used was un- likely to inhibit either pituitary corticotrophin or growth hormone production. Salt-loss of adrenal origin is recognized as a female external genitalia or macrogenitosomia http://adc.bmj.com/ feature of 3/1-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase de- praecox in the male.

THE BINDING OF CORTICOSTEROID AND RELATED HORMONES BY HUMAN PLASMA AND PLASMA PROTEIN FRAC- TIONS AS MEASURED BY EQUILIBRIUM DIALYSIS 1, 2 BY WILLIAM H. DAUGHADAY WITH THE TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE OF IDA KOZAK (From the Metabolism Dizision, Department of Medicine, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, Mo.) (Submitted for publication September 30, 1957; accepted December 5, 1957) The physical state of the corticosteroid hor- drawn, although little loss of binding affinity occurred mones in human plasma has been under investi- after storage at -10° C. The conditions of dialysis were the same as previously reported (2). Usually 10 ml. of gation in this laboratory.

Where a high de- plasma proteins to an extent of more than 90 per gree of binding was anticipated, 80 ml. of buffer was cent (2). Of the plasma protein fractions tested used. In several experiments where the amount of plasma or plasma protein fraction was limited, 5 ml. of protein for their cortisol binding power with high con- solution was dialyzed against 40 ml. of buffer. The ra- centrations of cortisol, albumin had the greatest dioactive and nonradioactive steroids were included in binding affinity. The importance of albumin was the dialysis buffer by diluting an alcoholic solution of apparently further supported by equilibrium pa- the steroids with buffer.

Under certain circumstances, for instance in stress and changed clinical picture, extra dosage adjustments may be necessary. If no favourable response is noted within a couple of days, glucocorticoid therapy should be discontinued. Adults Usually, daily oral dosages of 0.5 - 10 mg are sufficient. In some patients higher dosages may be temporarily required to control the disease. Once the disease is under control the dosage should be reduced or tapered off to the lowest suitable level under continuous monitoring and observation of the patient. (See Section 4.4) For a short dexamethasone suppression test, 1mg dexamethasone is given at 11 p.m. and plasma cortisol measured the next morning. Patients who do not show a decrease in cortisol can be exposed to a longer test: Page 1 of 8 500 micrograms dexamethasone is given at 6 hourly intervals for 48 hours followed by 2mg every 6 hours for a further 48 hours.

  • Effect of Aminoglutethimide on Blood Pressure and Steroid Secretion in Patients with Low Renin Essential Hypertension
    Effect of Aminoglutethimide on Blood Pressure and Steroid Secretion in Patients with Low Renin Essential Hypertension Addison A. Taylor, … , John R. Gill Jr., Ronald B. Franklin J Clin Invest. 1978;62(1):162-168. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI109101. Research Article An inhibitor of adrenal steroid biosynthesis, aminoglutethimide, was administered to seven patients with low renin essential hypertension, and the antihypertensive action of the drug was compared with its effects on adrenal steroid production. In all patients aldosterone concentrations in plasma and urine were within normal limits before the study. Mean arterial pressure was reduced from a pretreatment value of 117±2 (mean±SE) mm Hg to 108±3 mm Hg after 4 days of aminoglutethimide therapy and further to 99±3 mm Hg when drug administration was stopped (usually 21 days). Body weight was also reduced from 81.6±7.2 kg in the control period to 80.6±7.0 kg after 4 days of drug treatment and to 80.1±6.7 kg at the termination of therapy. Plasma renin activity was not significantly increased after 4 days of treatment but had risen to the normal range by the termination of aminoglutethimide therapy. Mean plasma concentrations of deoxycorticosterone and cortisol were unchanged during aminoglutethimide treatment whereas those of 18- hydroxydeoxycorticosterone, progesterone, 17α-hydroxyprogesterone, and 11-deoxycortisol were increased as compared to pretreatment values. In contrast, aminoglutethimide treatment reduced mean plasma aldosterone concentrations to about 30% of control values. Excretion rates of 16β-hydroxydehydroepiandrosterone, 16-oxo-androstenediol, 17- hydroxycorticosteroids and 17-ketosteroids, and the secretion rate of 16β-hydroxydehydroepiandrosterone were not significantly altered by aminoglutethimide treatment whereas the excretion rate of aldosterone was reduced from 3.62±0.5 (mean±SE) in the control period […] Find the latest version: https://jci.me/109101/pdf Effect of Aminoglutethimide on Blood Pressure and Steroid Secretion in Patients with Low Renin Essential Hypertension ADDISON A.
