BackgroundSex steroid hormones, primarily synthesized by gonadal somatic cells, are pivotal for sexual development and reproduction. Mice studies have shown that two transcription factors, steroidogenic factor 1 (SF-1) and Wilms’ tumor 1 (WT1), are ...

Abstract Menopause increases the risk of hypertension in women, yet the factors contributing to this important change remain unclear. Because early life stress has persistent and sex‐specific consequences on health, we hypothesized that ageing reveals the latent effects of neonatal maternal separation (NMS) on cardiovascular homeostasis in female rats.

Sex differences in addiction: gonadal hormones and substance use effects in women
Substance use disorders (SUD) affect differentially women and men. Although the prevalence has been reported higher in men, those women with addictive disorders present a more vulnerable profile and are less likely to enter treatment than men. The aim of

Endocrine and androgenic response to altitude training in professional cyclists
Abstract figure legend Steroidal and endocrine variables are altered during altitude training. Abstract This study investigated endocrine and steroidal blood markers in 31 male elite cyclists monitored over 7 weeks, including a 3 week altitude training camp either at 2050 m (n = 19) or 3000 m (n = 12).
