Coupled backward- and forward-propagating solitons in a composite right/left-handed transmission line [PDF]
, 2013 We study the coupling between backward- and forward-propagating wave modes, with the same group velocity, in a composite right/left-handed nonlinear transmission line.

Genetic analysis of zebrafish gonadotropin (FSH and LH) functions by TALEN-mediated gene disruption.
Molecular Endocrinology, 2015 Vertebrate reproduction is controlled by two gonadotropins (FSH and LH) from the pituitary. Despite numerous studies on FSH and LH in fish species, their functions in reproduction still remain poorly defined.

The response to FSH treatment in oligozoospermic men depends on FSH receptor gene polymorphisms [PDF]
International Journal of Andrology, 2010 In the last years, follice-stimulating hormone (FSH) receptor (FSHR) gene polymorphisms have been studied as potential risk factors for spermatogenetic failure. In this study, we have evaluated the response of FSH treatment in terms of sperm production on the basis of Ala307Thr-Asn680Ser polymorphisms in the FSHR gene in a group of oligozoospermic ...

A Requirement for Fatty Acid Oxidation in the Hormone-Induced Meiotic Maturation of Mouse Oocytes [PDF]
, 2013 We have previously shown that fatty acid oxidation (FAO) is required for AMP-activated protein kinase (PRKA)-induced maturation in vitro. In the present study, we have further investigated the role of this metabolic pathway in hormone-induced meiotic ...

FSH regulates fat accumulation and redistribution in aging through the Gαi/Ca2+/CREB pathway
Aging Cell, 2015 Increased fat mass and fat redistribution are commonly observed in aging populations worldwide. Although decreased circulating levels of sex hormones, androgens and oestrogens have been observed, the exact mechanism of fat accumulation and redistribution

Advanced Photonics Research, EarlyView.This study investigates sodium fluoride (NaF) as an additive in halide perovskite films to improve their optical and light amplification properties for application in laser diodes. The incorporation of NaF leads to a threefold increase in light‐emitting intensity and a 20% reduction in the amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) threshold, along with ...
