1/4 #Parathyroidcancer (PC) is a rare endocrine tumor with reported recurrence rate of 50-100%. Most recurrences occur in the same operative field, increasing the risks of re-operations. There is no curative systemic therapy available for PC. academic.oup.com/jcem/advance-a…

NIDDK researchers found that variants of the FLCN gene are associated with parathyroid cancer, a finding not previously reported. Efforts targeting these variants may be beneficial for potential therapies. academic.oup.com/jcem/advance-a…

Jenna Ellis got Covid from a Giuliani fart, and now she’s peddling a GoFundMe for her legal bills in Georgia? How the mighty — in their own minds — have fallen.

Our paper just out in JCI showing that a melanocortin 4 receptor (MC4R) mutation associated with hyperphagic obesity in humans and mice shows a specific defect in activating Gq/11 signaling. jci.org/articles/view/…
