Effect of FSH on testicular morphology and spermatogenesis in gonadotrophin-deficient hypogonadal mice lacking androgen receptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and androgen act to stimulate and maintain spermatogenesis. FSH acts directly on the Sertoli cells to stimulate germ cell number and acts indirectly to increase androgen production by the Leydig cells.

Steroid Hormones and Endocrine Disruptors: Recent Advances in Receptor–Mediated Actions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
It has been accepted that receptor-mediated action of steroid hormones depends on both the receptor and the hormonal level. The mechanism of transcription by steroid receptors is mediated by cofactors, which function as co-activators or co-repressors,

Structure of the homodimeric androgen receptor ligand-binding domain

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
The androgen receptor is crucial for the development and physiology of reproductive organs. Here the authors present the structure of the androgen receptor ligand-binding domain bound to dihydrotestosterone, identifying a homodimerization interface that ...

Histochemical indications for a chemically complex signal produced by the cervical gill slit gland of the pygmy sperm whale (Kogia breviceps)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The pygmy sperm whale (Kogia breviceps) possesses an exocrine gland associated with its false gill slit pigmentation pattern. The cervical gill slit gland is a compound tubuloalveolar gland that produces a holocrine secretion and displays maturational changes in size and secretory histology. While the morphology of the cervical gill slit gland

Gene amplifications associated with the development of hormone- resistant prostate cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Purpose: Hormone resistance remains a significant clinical problem in prostate cancer with few therapeutic options. Research into mechanisms of hormone resistance is essential.

Tumor Cell Autonomous RON Receptor Expression Promotes Prostate Cancer Growth Under Conditions of Androgen Deprivation

open access: yesNeoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2018
Current treatment strategies provide minimal results for patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Attempts to target the androgen receptor have shown promise, but resistance ultimately develops, often due to androgen receptor ...

Sex‐Based Differences in Prenatal and Perinatal Predictors of Autism Spectrum Disorder Using Machine Learning With National Health Data

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder influenced by genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors. ASD is characterized by a higher prevalence in males compared to females, highlighting the potential role of sex‐specific risk factors in its development.

Seed-mediated RNA interference of androgen signaling and survival networks induces cell death in prostate cancer cells

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2021
Resistance to anti-androgen therapy in prostate cancer (PCa) is often driven by genetic and epigenetic aberrations in the androgen receptor (AR) and coregulators that maintain androgen signaling activity.
