2,3-Diketogulonic acid (2,3-DKG) is a naturally occurring compound that is produced by the oxidation of L-gulonic acid. It is an important intermediate in the biosynthesis of L-ascorbic acid (vitamin C), and it is also a potent antioxidant. 2,3-DKG has been shown to have a number of beneficial effects, including reducing oxidative stress, improving cardiovascular health, and boosting the immune system. It has also been studied for its potential use in the treatment of cancer, diabetes, and other chronic diseases. 2,3-DKG is synthesized by a number of different methods, including chemical synthesis, enzymatic oxidation, and fermentation. It is typically used in the form of its calcium salt, calcium 2,3-diketogulonate, which is more stable and less prone to degradation than the free acid.'

| Pituitary Neoplasms Neoplasms which arise from or metastasize to the PITUITARY GLAND. The majority of pituitary neoplasms are adenomas, which are divided into non-secreting and secreting forms. Hormone producing forms are further classified by the type of hormone they secrete. Pituitary adenomas may also be characterized by their staining properties (see ADENOMA, BASOPHIL; ADENOMA, ACIDOPHIL; and ADENOMA, CHROMOPHOBE). Pituitary tumors may compress adjacent structures, including the HYPOTHALAMUS, several CRANIAL NERVES, and the OPTIC CHIASM. Chiasmal compression may result in bitemporal HEMIANOPSIA. | 0 | 1.96 | 1 | 0 |

| Parkinson Disease A progressive, degenerative neurologic disease characterized by a TREMOR that is maximal at rest, retropulsion (i.e. a tendency to fall backwards), rigidity, stooped posture, slowness of voluntary movements, and a masklike facial expression. Pathologic features include loss of melanin containing neurons in the substantia nigra and other pigmented nuclei of the brainstem. LEWY BODIES are present in the substantia nigra and locus coeruleus but may also be found in a related condition (LEWY BODY DISEASE, DIFFUSE) characterized by dementia in combination with varying degrees of parkinsonism.
