EMERGING THERAPEUTIC STRATEGIES IN CONGENITAL ADRENAL HYPERPLASIA: A COMMENT ON “LATEST ADVANCES FOR TREATING CONGENITAL ADRENAL HYPERPLASIA DUE TO 21-HYDROXYLASE DEFICIENCY”
Öz
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is a complex endocrine disorder, most commonly caused by 21-hydroxylase deficiency. Current therapeutic approaches fail to fully mimic physiological cortisol secretion and lack sufficient individualization. In recent years, modified-release hydrocortisone, CRF-1 and ACTH receptor antagonists, as well as gene therapy and stem cell based biotechnological methods, have been evaluated as potential therapeutic options. Novel biotechnology based approaches capable of mimicking physiological cortisol secretion with proven long term safety appear promising for the management of CAH.
