Assessing a Model for a Complex Systemic Disorder—The Value of Male Mice With a Supernumerary X Chromosome for Klinefelter Syndrome Research

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Direct experimental investigation of Klinefelter syndrome (KS) in patients is limited because the syndrome manifests heterogeneously and affects multiple organ systems. Studying KS therefore requires a model that captures this complexity as accurately as possible while still permitting controlled experimental manipulation ...

Prepubertal gonadectomy in cats: different injectable anaesthetic combinations and comparison with gonadectomy at traditional age

open access: yesJournal of Feline Medicine and Surgery, 2014
Anaesthetic and analgesic effects of three different injectable anaesthetic combinations for prepubertal gonadectomy (PPG) in cats were studied. One anaesthetic protocol was compared with a similar one for gonadectomy at traditional age (TAG). Kittens were randomly assigned to PPG or TAG.

Feminizing Therapy in People With Klinefelter Syndrome and Gender Incongruence: Considerations for Treatment Without Testosterone Blockers

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Klinefelter syndrome (KS; 47, XXY) usually involves male sex development and gender identity. Small studies suggest gender incongruence may be more common in KS, but feminizing gender‑affirming hormone therapy in this group has been scarcely reported.

Effects of gonadectomy and hormonal replacement on rat hearts [PDF]

open access: yesMaturitas, 1987
To evaluate the effects of sex hormones on heart function and biochemistry, gonadectomy (GX) was performed in postpubertal male (M) and female (F) rats and compared with sham-operated controls (SH). The groups were MSH; MGX; MGX replaced with testosterone 3 mg/day s.c.

The Similarities and Differences between the Effects of Testosterone and DHEA on the Innate and Adaptive Immune Response

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
Androgens are steroids that modulate various processes in the body, ranging from reproduction, metabolism, and even immune response. The main androgens are testosterone, dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA). These steroids modulate

Demonstration of beat‐to‐beat, on‐demand ATP synthesis in ventricular myocytes reveals sex‐specific mitochondrial and cytosolic dynamics

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Beat‐locked mitochondrial ATP transients reveal modular, sex‐specific bioenergetic control during excitation–contraction coupling. A, each action potential activates L‐type CaV1.2 channels, producing a Ca2+ influx that triggers ryanodine receptors (RyR2) and elicits SR Ca2+ release.
