Corticosteroid-Binding-Globulin - Deficiency

Transcortin Deficiency

Here, we present a patient with severe muscle fatigue, normal blood pressure, and abnormal high saliva cortisol levels following a standardized stress test. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Both autosomal dominant and autosomal recessive inheritance have been reported. [1] [2] While there is still no cure, treatment options will depend on the type and severity of symptoms present and may involve several specialists. [rarediseases.info.nih.gov]

Presents the fundamental theoretical and practical aspects of Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency (AATD) based on scientific evidence Provides evidence to show that AATD is a rarely diagnosed condition, rather than a rare condition Contains current research [books.google.com]

  • Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

    Five cases met the Centers for Disease Control criteria for chronic fatigue syndrome. Fatigue questionnaires revealed scores of 25.1 /- 2.5 in 18 adults with the mutation vs. 4.2 /- 1.5 in 23 healthy controls (P 0.0001). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    Some people with CBG deficiency also have chronic fatigue syndrome. CGB deficiency is caused by mutations in the SERPINA6 gene. The SERPINA6 gene is commonly also referred to as the CBG gene. [rarediseases.info.nih.gov]

    Some people with corticosteroid-binding globulin deficiency also have a condition called chronic fatigue syndrome. [ghr.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Malnutrition

    For example, states of protein malnutrition, observed in chronic liver or renal diseases, gastrointestinal malnutrition, anorexia, marasmus, and kwashiorkor, are associated with secondary TBG deficiency. [emedicine.medscape.com]

    Low values Low albumin levels may be caused by: A poor diet (malnutrition). Kidney disease. Liver disease. An autoimmune disease, such as lupus or rheumatoid arthritis. Gastrointestinal malabsorption syndromes, such as sprue or Crohn's disease. [northshore.org]

    Increased circulating SHBG levels have been shown to be associated with malnutrition, cachexia, anorexia nervosa, some cancers, anabolic deficiency, and a predominance of catabolism. [revespcardiol.org]

  • Sore Throat

    The features of chronic fatigue syndrome are prolonged fatigue that interferes with daily activities, as well as general symptoms, such as sore throat or headaches. [ghr.nlm.nih.gov]

    This condition involves prolonged episodes of extreme tiredness (fatigue) that can last for months and interfere with daily activities, as well as general symptoms, such as sore throat or headaches. [forums.phoenixrising.me]

  • Suggestibility

    Rodent studies suggest that corticosteroid-binding globulin (CBG) modulates glucocorticoid action in adipose tissue. In humans, both genetic CBG deficiency and suppressed CBG concentrations in hyperinsulinemic states are associated with obesity. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    The literature suggests 47 to 59 mcg/mL as the range of TBG values expected during the third trimester of pregnancy. [mayomedicallaboratories.com]

    These results suggest that dedifferentiation of endometrial cancers induces a reduction in intracellular CBG synthesis [3]. [wikigenes.org]

    Their role in patients with HF with a deranged balance between anabolic and catabolic stimuli may suggest an interesting therapeutic approach, though further studies are warranted. SEE ARTICLE ON PAGES 1381-7 Correspondence: E.A. [revespcardiol.org]
