Assessment of trabecular bone score (TBS) in overweight/obese men: effect of metabolic and anthropometric factors [PDF]
, 2016 The "trabecular bone score" (TBS) indirectly explores bone quality, independently of bone mineral density (BMD). We investigated the effects of anthropometric and metabolic parameters on TBS in 87 overweight/obese men. We assessed BMD and TBS by DXA, and

Expression of the neural cell adhesion molecule NCAM in endocrine cells [PDF]
, 1989 We examined the expression of the neural cell adhesion molecule NCAM in a number of endocrine tissues of adult rat and in an endocrine tumor cell line. NCAM was found by immunoelectron microscopy to be present on the surface of all endocrine cells in the

Triiodothyronine suppresses humoral immunity but not T-cell-mediated immune response in incubating female eiders (Somateria mollissima) [PDF]
Gen. Comp. Endocrinol. 151 (2007) 188-194, 2007 Immunity is believed to share limited resources with other physiological functions and this may partly account for the fitness costs of reproduction. Previous studies have shown that the acquired immunity of female common eiders (Somateria mollissima) is suppressed during the incubation fast.

Adipocyte-Derived Extracellular Vesicles: Small Vesicles with Big Impact
Frontiers in Bioscience-Landmark, 2023 While increasing numbers of studies have established that adipose tissue plays a vital role in balancing energy intake and energy expenditure as both an energy and an endocrine organ, the detailed functions of adipose tissue remain unclear.

Inter-population variability in the reproductive morphology of the shore crab (Carcinus maenas): Evidence of endocrine disruption in a marine crustacean? [PDF]
, 2005 Environmental contaminants that are capable of causing endocrine disrupting effects are currently a major cause for concern. These chemicals are known to influence the reproductive development of vertebrates by mimicking or antagonising the actions of ...

Macrophages in endocrine glands, with emphasis on pancreatic islets [PDF]
, 2016 We review here the macrophages found in endocrine tissues, placing emphasis on those residing in the islets of Langerhans of the pancreas. The islets represent the endocrine organ where macrophages have been examined in great detail and where our own ...
