furosemide and Acromegaly

furosemide has been researched along with Acromegaly in 8 studies

Furosemide: A benzoic-sulfonamide-furan. It is a diuretic with fast onset and short duration that is used for EDEMA and chronic RENAL INSUFFICIENCY.
furosemide : A chlorobenzoic acid that is 4-chlorobenzoic acid substituted by a (furan-2-ylmethyl)amino and a sulfamoyl group at position 2 and 5 respectively. It is a diuretic used in the treatment of congestive heart failure.

Acromegaly: A condition caused by prolonged exposure to excessive HUMAN GROWTH HORMONE in adults. It is characterized by bony enlargement of the FACE; lower jaw (PROGNATHISM); hands; FEET; HEAD; and THORAX. The most common etiology is a GROWTH HORMONE-SECRETING PITUITARY ADENOMA. (From Joynt, Clinical Neurology, 1992, Ch36, pp79-80)

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The IGF-I-mediated and PTH-independent increase in calcitriol synthesis in acromegaly is responsible for both absorptive hypercalciuria and increased fasting plasma calcium linked to enhanced distal tubular calcium reabsorption, as shown by the selectively diminished calciuric response to furosemide."5.16Pathophysiology of renal calcium handling in acromegaly: what lies behind hypercalciuria? ( Azizi, M; Blanchard, A; Brailly-Tabard, S; Chanson, P; Gauci, C; Kamenický, P; Letierce, A; Lombès, M; Prié, D; Salenave, S; Souberbielle, JC, 2012)
"Sixteen patients (five females, 11 males) with acromegaly were randomly assigned to receive 20 mg amiloride (an ENaC blocker) and 25 mg furosemide (a Na-K-2Cl cotransporter blocker) under a high-sodium diet to suppress endogenous renin and aldosterone."5.15Body fluid expansion in acromegaly is related to enhanced epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) activity.
