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.

Successful pregnancy and live birth from a hypogonadotropic hypogonadism woman with low serum estradiol concentrations despite numerous oocyte maturations: a case report

BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth, 2017
Background The increase in serum estradiol (E2) concentrations during the follicular phase becomes the index of oocyte maturation in vivo. When ovarian stimulation is performed to hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (HH) patients with only follicle ...

Protective Effect of Follicle-Stimulating Hormone on DNA Damage of Chicken Follicular Granulosa Cells by Inhibiting CHK2/p53

, 2022
The increase in follicular atresia and the decrease in the fecundity of laying hens occur with the aging process. Therefore, the key measure for maintaining high laying performance is to alleviate follicular atresia in the aging poultry.

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.

Embodied attachments: IVF, the maternal body, and the making of embryo kinship

Feminist Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract Within the sphere of IVF (in vitro fertilization), there is increasing concern about the stockpiles of frozen embryos held in clinics across the country. This normative discourse tends to take the patient‐embryo relationship for granted, with salient political consequences for current embryo ‘personhood’ debates.

A highly sensitive Anti-Müllerian hormone test as a promising tool for follicle growth prediction in primary ovarian insufficiency patients

Scientific Reports
Primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) patients often require prolonged stimulation for follicular growth. Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), produced by granulosa cells of early-stage follicles, is a potential a biomarker for predicting follicular development ...
