Regulation of reproduction via tight control of gonadotropin hormone levels. [PDF]
, 2018 Mammalian reproduction is controlled by the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis. GnRH from the hypothalamus regulates synthesis and secretion of gonadotropins, LH and FSH, which then control steroidogenesis and gametogenesis. In females, serum LH and FSH

Aging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 2, February 2026.This systematic review and meta‐analysis identifies blood‐based biomarkers (BBMs) reported in sarcopenia trials, investigating the impact of sarcopenia interventions on BBMs concentrations. Significant heterogeneity was observed in sarcopenia outcomes. Interventions had a limited impact on BBMs, except for IGF‐1, which was significantly impacted by the

Agrin isoforms and their role in synaptogenesis [PDF]
, 1992 Agrin is thought to mediate the motor neuron-induced aggregation of synaptic proteins on the surface of muscle fibers at neuromuscular junctions. Recent experiments provide direct evidence in support of this hypothesis, reveal the nature of agrin ...
