metyrapone and Pituitary Diseases

metyrapone has been researched along with Pituitary Diseases in 94 studies

Metyrapone: An inhibitor of the enzyme STEROID 11-BETA-MONOOXYGENASE. It is used as a test of the feedback hypothalamic-pituitary mechanism in the diagnosis of CUSHING SYNDROME.
metyrapone : An aromatic ketone that is 3,3-dimethylbutan-2-one in which the methyl groups at positions 1 and 4 are replaced by pyridin-3-yl groups. A steroid 11beta-monooxygenase (EC 1.14.15.4) inhibitor, it is used in the diagnosis of adrenal insufficiency.

Pituitary Diseases: Disorders involving either the ADENOHYPOPHYSIS or the NEUROHYPOPHYSIS. These diseases usually manifest as hypersecretion or hyposecretion of PITUITARY HORMONES. Neoplastic pituitary masses can also cause compression of the OPTIC CHIASM and other adjacent structures.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The role of the low dose (1 microgram) ACTH stimulation test in the evaluation of patients with pituitary diseases was systematically assessed by relating its results to those obtained on gold standard tests of hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) reserve, such as insulin-induced hypoglycemia or a metyrapone challenge."3.69The role of the low dose (1 microgram) adrenocorticotropin test in the evaluation of patients with pituitary diseases. ( Apter, C; Grazas, N; Jaffe, A; Stern, N; Tordjman, K, 1995)
" Serum deoxycorticosterone rose in healthy subjects upon injection of ACTH, after induction of insulin hypoglycemia and after administration of metyrapone, while the rise was absent or blunted in patients with Addison's disease and in patients with pituitary failure."3.65Radioimmunoassay of serum deoxycorticosterone: normal values and changes of serum deoxycorticosterone after adrenal stimulation. ( Harendt, H; Oelkers, W; Schöneshöfer, M, 1975)
"The Metyrapone was given, the morning, in perfusion intravenous of saline serum over 2 hours."2.64[Changes in plasma level of corticotropin after intravenous injection of metyrapone. Value of this test in pituitary pathology]. ( Gabaude, B; Huguenin, A; Javalet, A; Murie, N, 1977)
"Metyrapone (30 mg/kg) was administered orally at 2300 h and blood was sampled at 0830 h the following morning for 11-deoxycortisol."1.31The low dose ACTH stimulation test is less sensitive than the overnight metyrapone test for the diagnosis of secondary hypoadrenalism. ( Attenborough, S; Coetzer, E; Kinvig, S; Kinvig, T; Parolis, G; Peter, D; Soule, S; Van Zyl Smit, C, 2000)
"Together, these data show that in pituitary disorders the results of the LDT and the HDT are almost identical."1.30Comparison of low and high dose corticotropin stimulation tests in patients with pituitary disease. ( Bähr, V; Diederich, S; Mayenknecht, J; Oelkers, W; Plöckinger, U, 1998)
" S with an ACTH-cortisol dose-response curve obtained in normal subjects shows that subnormal ACTH responses after metyrapone in the range between 13 and 33 pmol/L still generate normal comp."1.29Pituitary function tests: comparison of ACTH and 11-deoxy-cortisol responses in the metyrapone test and with the insulin hypoglycemia test. ( Bähr, V; Exner, P; Oelkers, PW; Steiner, H, 1994)
"The melatonin secretion was studied in 10 patients, and increased significantly in 8/10 during and in one after the Metyrapone administration."1.26Melatonin and corticosteroid response to metyrapone in patients with pituitary disease. ( Brismar, K; Werner, S; Wetterberg, L, 1982)
