The Effects of Angiotensin Receptor Neprilysin Inhibitor on Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress in Doxorubicin‐Mediated Cardiomyopathy‐Associated Heart Failure Model in Rats

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT One of the most serious complications associated with the use of the chemotherapeutic agent doxorubicin (DOX) is cardiomyopathy. Although cardioprotective drugs such as angiotensin receptor‐neprilysin inhibitors (ARNI) are used to prevent cardiomyopathy in DOX patients, no studies have reported the relationship between ARNI and endoplasmic ...

Effect of oxytocin on free intracellular Ca2+ levels and progesterone release by human granulosa-lutein cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Oxytocin and its receptor are found in the corpus luteum in a variety of species, including the human. In the present study we used fura-2 microfluorimetry to investigate whether activation of the oxytocin receptor of cultured human granulosa-lutein ...

Potential Neuroendocrine Disruption by Benzodiazepines and Its Impact on Male Fertility

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neuroactive substances have emerged as potent endocrine disruptors affecting male reproductive health through central and peripheral mechanisms. Among these, benzodiazepines, which are widely used for the management of anxiety, insomnia, epilepsy, and neuromuscular disorders, are known as GABA A (gamma‐aminobutyric acid type A) receptor ...

Synergistic Toxicity of Low‐Concentration Metal Mixture on Male Rats: Reproductive, Renal, and Hepatic Effects

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mining plays a crucial role in economic development, but improper management can lead to severe environmental degradation. Particularly for iron ore, mining generates vast amounts of tailings often stored in unstable dams. This study aims to investigate the toxicological impacts of environmentally relevant concentrations of metals mixture ...

Differential Susceptibility of Germ and Leydig Cells to Cadmium-Mediated Toxicity: Impact on Testis Structure, Adiponectin Levels, and Steroidogenesis

open access: yesOxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, 2017
This study investigated the relationship between germ and Leydig cell death, testosterone, and adiponectin levels in cadmium-mediated acute toxicity. Cadmium chloride was administered in a single dose to five groups of rats: G1 (0.9% NaCl) and G2 to G5 ...

Prevalence of HCMV, HHV‐6, and HSV‐1/2 in the semen of men attending infertility clinics and their association with semen parameters

open access: yesUroPrecision, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Viral infections have been identified as potential disruptors of male reproductive health. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), human herpesvirus 6 (HHV‐6), and herpes simplex virus types 1 and 2 (HSV‐1/2) DNA in semen samples from fertile and infertile men within the potential impact of ...

Trpv4-mediated apoptosis of Leydig cells induced by high temperature regulates sperm development and motility in zebrafish

open access: yesCommunications Biology
Exposure of testes to high-temperature environment results in defective spermatogenesis. Zebrafish exposed to high temperature exhibited apoptosis not only in germ cells but also in Leydig cells, as expected from studies using mice or salmon.

Quantification of steroid hormones in free‐ranging Apennine wolf Canis lupus italicus hair samples collected post‐mortem

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
After decades of dramatic reductions in their populations, Italian wolves have begun recolonizing parts of their historic range. This growth in populations can lead to potential conflicts with human activities, which remain the main cause of wolf mortality.

Insulin-like factor 3 (INSL3) and the HPG axis in the male

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2014
The HPG (hypothalamo-pituitary-gonadal) axis comprises pulsatile GnRH from the hypothalamus impacting on the anterior pituitary to induce expression and release of both LH and FSH into the circulation.
