Gymnema sylvestre: Bioactive constituents, health benefits, and emerging applications in nutraceuticals and functional foods

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Gymnema sylvestre (Retz.) R.Br. ex‐Schult., commonly known as “gurmar” or “sugar destroyer,” belongs to the Apocynaceae family and is traditionally used in Ayurveda for diabetes management. This review synthesizes ethnomedicinal evidence with contemporary pharmacological studies, to evaluate the therapeutic properties and mechanistic actions ...

Recovery from Age-Related Infertility under Environmental Light-Dark Cycles Adjusted to the Intrinsic Circadian Period

Cell Reports, 2015
Female reproductive function changes during aging with the estrous cycle becoming more irregular during the transition to menopause. We found that intermittent shifts of the light-dark cycle disrupted regularity of estrous cycles in middle-aged female ...

Recurrence of Estrous Cycles in the Light-Induced Persistent Estrous Rats by Reserpine

Endocrinologia Japonica, 1976
Effect of continuous illumination (LL) on ovarian functions was compared at various ages between the rats exposed to LL from 70 days of age (LL-70) and exposed to LL from the day of birth (LL-0). LL-0 rats retained corpora lutea in their ovaries in higher incidence than LL-70 rats. Effect of reserpine on the restoration of cyclicity was studied in LL-0

Climate‐Modulated Particle Toxicity: Acute Exposure to an Environmentally Informed Microplastic Mixture Induces Sex‐Dependent Systemic Reorganization in Swiss Mice

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microplastic (MP) pollution is widely recognized as an emerging environmental threat. Yet, most studies still rely on controlled experimental conditions that poorly reflect environmental complexity, potentially underestimating risks under realistic scenarios, particularly during short‐term exposures. Here, we tested whether acute oral exposure

Evaluation of a commercial automated assay for rapid serum progesterone determination in cattle, sheep and goats

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background In ruminants, information on serum progesterone concentrations can be important in monitoring the oestrous cycle for pregnancy testing and the detection of endocrine disorders. We aimed to evaluate the suitability of a commercial enzyme‐linked fluorescence assay (ELFA), the MINI VIDAS (bioMérieux, Nürtingen), for measuring ...

Assessing physiological, behavioral and movement responses to Suprelorin implant delivery methods in free‐ranging eastern grey kangaroos Macropus giganteus

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Overabundant populations of eastern grey kangaroos Macropus giganteus in peri‐urban areas pose ecological and social challenges. Current management strategies are often hindered by animal welfare and logistical concerns. This study aimed to assess stress responses of kangaroos to two contraceptive delivery methods.

The Estrous Cycle and the Adrenal Glands.

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1933
About 2 years ago experiments were reported from this laboratory showing important interrelationships between the adrenal cortex and the gonads. It was definitely shown that very early maturation of the sex glands could be induced by treatment of animals with cortico-adrenal extract.1 The present brief report mainly indicates the effects of cortico ...

Monitoring the effects of ovariectomy on seasonal movement behavior in suburban female white‐tailed deer using internet of things‐enabled devices

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Abundant deer populations often cause conflicts in suburban communities, yet traditional population reduction methods, such as controlled hunting, can be challenging to implement. Fertility control, specifically through ovariectomy, can limit reproduction and reduce populations in certain settings, but its effect on movement behavior remains poorly ...

Microbial and Metabolic Correlates of Endometrial Dysfunction in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Translational Study

BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) exhibit a substantially increased risk of miscarriage, yet the underlying mechanisms remain inadequately understood. This study aimed to investigate whether specific gut microbial dysbiosis and metabolic disturbance are associated with and may potentially contribute to endometrial ...
