Estradiol-mediated enhancement of the human ectocervical epithelial barrier correlates with desmoglein-1 expression in the follicular menstrual phase

Frontiers in Endocrinology
BackgroundThe cervicovaginal epithelial barrier is crucial for defending the female reproductive tract against sexually transmitted infections. Hormones, specifically estradiol and progesterone, along with their respective receptor expressions, play an ...

Association of brown adipose tissue activity with circulating sex hormones and fibroblast growth factor 21 in the follicular and luteal phases in young women

Journal of Physiological Anthropology
Background Thermogenesis is influenced by fluctuations in sex hormones during the menstrual cycle in premenopausal women. The thermogenic activity and mass of brown adipose tissue (BAT) are regulated by endocrine factors, including sex hormones and ...

microRNA Expression in Women With and Without Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome Matched for Body Mass Index

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2020
Background: Despite several authors who have hypothesized that alterations of small noncoding RNAs (miR) are implicated in the etiopathogenesis of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), contrasting findings have been reported so far.

Effects of boar stimuli on the follicular phase and on oestrous behaviour in sows [PDF]

Bioscientifica Proceedings, 2019
This review describes the role of boar stimuli in receptive behaviour, and the influence of boar stimuli during the follicular phase. Receptive behaviour (standing response) in an oestrous sow is elicited by boar stimuli, which can be olfactory, auditory, tactile, or visual. The relative importance of these stimuli is not clear. Individually, olfactory
