Role of SoxE transcription factors in development and disease

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Sox8, Sox9, and Sox10 arose by multiple rounds of genome duplications from a single SoxE gene in ancestral vertebrates. In this review, we will briefly discuss the molecular structure and function of SoxE transcription factors and their evolutionary origin. We will then discuss their expression, function, and developmental disorders.

Interaction of Follicle-Stimulating Hormone and Stem Cell Factor to Promote Primordial Follicle Assembly in the Chicken

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2019
Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and KIT signaling are required for ovarian development. In this study the interactive effect of FSH and stem cell factor (SCF) on folliculogenesis was investigated in the chicken.

Micronutrient Status in Children Suffering From Anorexia Nervosa: A Cohort of 349 Patients in a Referral Center for Eating Disorders

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a serious illness in which more than half of all deaths are due to malnutrition. Critically low energy and protein intake are known causes of massive weight loss, whereas micronutrient deficiencies due to a low‐calorie food pattern remain poorly characterized in children with AN. Micronutrient deficiencies in

Daily Ovarian Hormone Exposure and Loss of Control Eating in Adolescent Girls: A Stage 2 Registered Report

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This Stage 2 Registered Report examined (1) the main effects and interaction of within‐person daily associations between ovarian hormones (i.e., estrogen, progesterone) and loss of control eating (LOCE), and (2) the within‐person mediating roles of food‐related reward anticipation and response inhibition. Methods Adolescent girls (n =

Ovarian Reserve Assessment among Healthy Women Using Hormonal Contraceptives Baghdad, Iraq

Al-Mustansiriyah Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences
Background: A woman's ovarian reserve and fertility may be affected by the long-term use of hormonal contraception. Anti-Mullerian hormone levels, the best available measure of ovarian reserve, were reduced by hormonal contraceptives methods, and were ...

Development of a Zebrafish Embryo‐Based Test System for Thyroid Hormone System Disruption: 3Rs in Ecotoxicological Research

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, EarlyView.
Abstract There is increasing concern regarding pollutants disrupting the vertebrate thyroid hormone (TH) system, which is crucial for development. Thus, identification of TH system–disrupting chemicals (THSDCs) is an important requirement in the Organisation for Economic Co‐operation and Development (OECD) testing framework.

Transcriptomic signatures reveal systemic adaptations and immune modulation in response to training and competitive racing in horses

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The molecular mechanisms underlying adaptation to physical exertion and racing stress in horses remain incompletely understood. Peripheral blood transcriptomics offers a minimally invasive method to monitor systemic responses to exercise and identify biomarkers of adaptation or overload. Objectives To evaluate transcriptomic changes

Protective Effects of Fenugreek and Stevia Extracts on Dexamethasone‐Induced Testicular Damage in a Rat Model

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Fenugreek and stevia extracts protect against dexamethasone‐induced testicular damage in male rats by enhancing antioxidant defenses, improving sperm quality, and restoring hormonal balance, highlighting their potential as natural therapeutics for preventing corticosteroid‐induced reproductive toxicity.
