A meta-analysis and systematic review of randomized controlled trials with degarelix versus gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists for advanced prostate cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Our aim was to systematically evaluate the benefits of degarelix as antagonist versus agonists of gonadotropin-releasing hormones (GnRH) for the treatment of advanced prostate cancer (PC).

Neuroestradiol in the Hypothalamus Contributes to the Regulation of Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone Release

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2013
Release of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) from the medial basal hypothalamus (MBH)/median eminence region (S-ME) is essential for normal reproductive function.

Positive Association Between the Cardiometabolic Index and the Risk of Male Biochemical Androgen Deficiency in Adults

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Metabolic disorders are associated with testosterone deficiency, and the cardiometabolic index (CMI) is a recently identified metabolic indicator. The relationship between male biochemical androgen deficiency (MBAD), a precursor to testosterone deficiency, and CMI remains unclear.

Systems of Delay Differential Equations: Analysis of a model with feedback [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
Self-regulatory models are common in nature, as described e.g. in (\cite{mur}), (\cite{ha}) and (\cite{Gb}).\\ Let us consider a system made up of a number of glands as a motivation. Each gland secretes a hormone that allows secretion in the {next} gland, which successively generates another hormone to stimulate the next one and so on.

Activation of Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Neurons by Kisspeptin as a Neuroendocrine Switch for the Onset of Puberty

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2005
We examined the role of kisspeptin and its receptor, the G-protein-coupled receptor GPR54, in governing the onset of puberty in the mouse. In the adult male and female mouse, kisspeptin (10–100 nm) evoked a remarkably potent, long-lasting depolarization ...

Effect of inaccurate b‐values from imaging gradients on intravoxel incoherent motion

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Neglecting imaging gradients in b‐value calculations has been a documented issue for decades and remains unaccounted for in the current postprocessing pipelines. This omission may introduce inaccuracies that propagate into diffusion parameter estimates, such as in ADC and DTI analysis.

Effects of Caponization on Expression of Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone-I and Gonadotropin Subunits Genes in Roosters

open access: yesThe Journal of Poultry Science, 2016
We evaluated the effects of caponization on mRNA levels of gonadotropin-releasing hormone-I (GnRH-I), gonadotropin subunit and other hypothalamic and hypophyseal peptide genes in male chicken.

A Dual-Hormone Closed-Loop Delivery System for Type 1 Diabetes Using Deep Reinforcement Learning [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
We propose a dual-hormone delivery strategy by exploiting deep reinforcement learning (RL) for people with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D). Specifically, double dilated recurrent neural networks (RNN) are used to learn the hormone delivery strategy, trained by a variant of Q-learning, whose inputs are raw data of glucose \& meal carbohydrate and outputs are dual-

Local and global analysis of endocrine regulation as a non-cyclic feedback system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
To understand the sophisticated control mechanisms of the human's endocrine system is a challenging task that is a crucial step towards precise medical treatment of many disfunctions and diseases. Although mathematical models describing the endocrine system as a whole are still elusive, recently some substantial progress has been made in analyzing ...

Leukemia Inhibitory Factor Represses GnRH Gene Expression via cFOS during Inflammation in Male Mice. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
BackgroundThe mechanisms whereby neuroinflammation negatively affects neuronal function in the hypothalamus are not clear. Our previous study determined that obesity-mediated chronic inflammation elicits sex-specific impairment in reproductive function ...
