J Clin Endocrinol Metab. 2020 Dec 1;105(12): dgaa585.https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32844182/The aim of this histological study was to investigate DNA methylation and expression of genes encoding steroidogenic enzymes in benign adrenocortical tumors. The findings suggest that DNA methylation plays a regulatory role in CYP11B2 expression and may contribute to aldosterone hypersecretion in a...

Brief Summary:This study shows that brain-derived cellular communication network factor 3 (CCN3) is a potent osteoanabolic hormone to enhance bone formation in lactating female mice. CCN3 is produced by KISS1 neurons in the brain, and operates through a unique signaling pathway that interacts with bone-forming osteoblasts leading to increased bone formation.During lactation, the increased calcium demand for milk production leads to considerable bone loss...
