People in Eastern Asia, including Japan, traditionally consume higher amounts of sodium chloride than in the United States and Western Europe, and it is common knowledge that impaired insulin secretion-rather than insulin resistance-is highly prevalent in Asian people who have diabetes mellitus. We previously reported that mice fed a high-fat and high-sodium chloride (HFHS) diet had a relatively lower degree of obesity than mice fed a high-fat diet, but had a comparatively impaired insulin secretion. Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have been shown to dampen down the sympathetic nervous system, which reportedly is activated by a high-sodium chloride diet.

A 37-year-old man presented with symptoms of polyuria and weight loss over the past year. Initial laboratory examination showed elevated blood glucose level (468 mg/dL [25.9 mmol/L]; normal reference range [RR], 75-109 mg/dL [4.

Pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma (PPGL) are rare chromaffin-cell tumors producing adrenaline and/or noradrenaline, or solely dopamine. A 52-year-old man presenting with hypertension (141/79 mm Hg) and weight loss (10 kg in 6 months) was admitted to our hospital. Computed tomography revealed a massive right adrenal mass (150 mm) with partial necrosis, accompanied by multiple liver nodules.

Article Synopsis
- Autonomic synucleinopathies like Parkinson's disease (PD), pure autonomic failure (PAF), and multiple system atrophy (MSA) are characterized by autonomic failure and the abnormal buildup of alpha-synuclein protein in the body. !* -
- Research showed that patients with these conditions had significantly lower urinary excretion rates of norepinephrine and dopamine compared to controls, suggesting a potential dysfunction in their renal sympathetic function. !* -
- The study analyzed urine samples from participants at the NIH over nearly three decades and found no significant differences in DOPA and epinephrine levels among the groups, indicating that only norepinephrine and dopamine were impacted by these diseases. !*
Diversity of Neurotransmitter-Producing Human Skin Commensals.

Recent findings indicate that human microbiota can excrete trace amines, dopamine, and serotonin. These neurotransmitters (NTs) can either affect classical neurotransmitter signaling or directly trigger trace amine-associated receptors (TAARs), with still unclear consequences for host physiology. Compared to gut microbiota, less information is available on the role of skin microbiota in NT production.
