Pathogenesis of Melasma Explained

International Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
Pathophysiology of melasma. ABSTRACT This review provides an in‐depth analysis of the pathophysiology of melasma and highlights recent studies that elucidate its underlying mechanisms. Given the prevalence of melasma, a thorough understanding of its pathogenesis is critical for the development of effective treatment strategies.

Sex differences in intestinal morphology and increase in diencephalic neuropeptide Y gene expression in female but not male Pekin ducks exposed to chronic heat stress

Journal of Neuroendocrinology, EarlyView.
Abstract The impact of heat stress (HS) on production is intricately linked with feed intake. We investigated the effects of HS on intestines and diencephalic genes in Pekin ducks. One hundred and sixty adult ducks were allocated to two treatment rooms.

The gut‐microbiota‐brain axis: Focus on gut steroids

Journal of Neuroendocrinology, EarlyView.
Abstract There are over 1000 varieties of steroids that have been reported in nature, including the endogenous sex steroid hormones (i.e., progesterone, testosterone, and 17β‐estradiol) and corticosteroids which are mainly synthesized by gonads and adrenals, respectively.

Adrenocorticotropic hormone gel for patients with non-infectious uveitis

American Journal of Ophthalmology Case Reports, 2019
Purpose: To describe the potential role of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) gel treatment in patients with chronic non-infectious uveitis. Observations: We report the clinical course of three patients with bilateral, non-infectious anterior and ...

Neuroactive steroid exposure impacts neurodevelopment: Comparison of human and rodent placental contribution

Journal of Neuroendocrinology, EarlyView.
Abstract The placenta is a fetal endocrine organ that secretes many neuroactive factors, including steroids, that play critical roles in brain development. The study of the placenta‐brain axis and the links between placental function and brain development represents an emerging research area dubbed “neuroplacentology.” The placenta drives many ...

Single‐cell genomics meets systems neuroscience: Insights from mapping the brain circuitry of stress

Journal of Neuroendocrinology, EarlyView.
Abstract Responses to external and internal dangers is essential for survival and homeostatic regulation. Hypothalamic corticotropin‐releasing hormone neurons (CRHNs) play a pivotal role in regulating neuroendocrine responses to fear and stress.
