Mechanism of elevated LH/FSH ratio in lean PCOS revisited: a path analysis [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder affecting 5–20% of reproductive-age women. However, the treatment of PCOS is mainly based on symptoms and not on its pathophysiology.

Structural basis of divergent substrate recognition and inhibition of human neurolysin [PDF]

Scientific Reports
A zinc metallopeptidase neurolysin (Nln) processes diverse bioactive peptides to regulate signaling in the mammalian nervous system. To understand how Nln interacts with various peptides with dissimilar sequences, we determined crystal structures of Nln ...

Altered expression of kisspeptin, dynorphin, and related neuropeptides in polycystic ovary syndrome: A cross-sectional study [PDF]

International Journal of Reproductive BioMedicine
Background: Since kisspeptin (KISS1) in the hypothalamus is affected by the inhibitory effect of dynorphin, it raises questions about the controlled balance of these 2 neuropeptides in women with and without polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).

Food and the brain: Neural and endocrine control of feeding, metabolism, and reproduction. [PDF]

J Neuroendocrinol
Abstract Feeding and reproductive function are regulated by intricate systems that monitor food availability and energy stores, and on the basis of energy status, promote or put a brake on reproduction. This is particularly evident in the systems that regulate feeding and reproductive state in female mammals.

SEQUENCE ANALYSIS SUGGESTS POSITIVE SELECTION ON THE BOVINE PRODYNORPHIN GENE [PDF]

BAG. Journal of Basic and Applied Genetics, 2020
Dynorphin A is an endogenous opioid peptide that is part of the KNDy system in the hypothalamus of mammals. This peptide acts as an inhibitor of the GnRH pulse generation, thus regulating the onset of puberty and reproductive cycles.
