ABSTRACT Background According to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), more than 20 million Americans suffer from chronic taste problems. Unfortunately, quantitative testing is rarely performed, self‐reports are inaccurate, and “taste” is often confused with olfaction‐dependent flavors.

Gonadotropin and kisspeptin gene expression, but not GnRH, are impaired in cFOS deficient mice. [PDF]
cFOS is a pleiotropic transcription factor, which binds to the AP1 site in the promoter of target genes. In the pituitary gonadotropes, cFOS mediates induction of FSHβ and GnRH receptor genes.

Steroid Hormone Content of the Gonads of the Tammar Wallaby during Sexual Differentiation1 [PDF]
The gonads of the tammar wallaby, Macropus eugenii, are sexually indifferent at birth (Day 0) despite the fact that phenotypic sexual differentiation has already commenced as evidenced by the presence of a scrotum in males and mammary anlagen in females.

Objective In men and women, sex steroid hormones have been associated with increased risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD) dementia. We aimed to investigate the influence of midlife testosterone and sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) levels on later‐life in vivo markers of β‐amyloid (Aβ) and tau deposition in clinically healthy older men. Methods This time‐

Post-menopausal ovarian fibroma associated with steroid hormone synthesis: A case report
Objective: Ovarian fibromas are benign, sex cord-stromal tumors occurring in both peri- and post-menopausal women. Generally, these tumors are non-functional and do not produce hormones.

Immunomodulatory Actions of Gonadal Steroids May Be Mediated by Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone [PDF]
Estrogens are considered to be immunostimulatory, whereas androgens are considered to be immunosuppressive. We hypothesized that the divergent actions of gonadal steroids on the immune system may be mediated indirectly, via their potent divergent feedback effects on the hypothalamic hormone GnRH, which is itself immunostimulatory.
