A Retrospective Study on the Impact of Primary Aldosteronism in Pregnancy (H.A.P.P.I. Study Group)
ABSTRACT Objective Primary aldosteronism (PA) is a common cause of hypertension in young women. However, there is a paucity of data regarding its impact during pregnancy. The primary objective of this study was to describe the occurrence of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) in PA.

Lhcgr Expression in Granulosa Cells: Roles for PKA-Phosphorylated β-Catenin, TCF3, and FOXO1
Ovarian follicles lacking FSH or FSH receptors fail to progress to a preovulatory stage, resulting in infertility. One hallmark of the preovulatory follicle is the presence of luteinizing hormone/choriogonadotropin receptors (LHCGR) on granulosa cells (GCs). However, the mechanisms by which FSH induces Lhcgr gene expression are poorly understood.

A functional link between bone morphogenetic proteins and insulin-like peptide 3 signaling in modulating ovarian androgen production [PDF]
Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMP) are firmly implicated as intra-ovarian regulators of follicle development and steroidogenesis. Here we report a microarray analysis showing that treatment of cultured bovine theca cells (TC) with BMP6 significantly (>2 ...

During oocyte growth and follicle development, oocytes closely communicate with cumulus cells. We examined the effects of oocyte-derived growth factors, growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF9) and bone morphogenetic protein 15 (BMP15), on the growth and ...

Importância do estudo multigénico no diagnóstico molecular de doenças raras por sequenciação de nova geração [PDF]
Introdução: A sequenciação de nova geração (NGS) revolucionou o diagnóstico molecular das doenças raras (DR) proporcionando a análise de um maior número de genes, resultados mais rápidos e custos reduzidos. A NGS usando diferentes abordagens, possibilita

In this review, we summarise the major recent advances in Testicular Sex Cord‐Stromal Tumours, focusing on molecular alterations and biomarkers relevant for diagnosis, classification and prognosis. Testicular sex cord‐stromal tumours (TSCSTs) represent ~4%–8% of all testicular neoplasms.

CGB activates ERK and AKT kinases in cancer cells via LHCGR-independent mechanism
Expression of human chorionic gonadotropin free beta subunit (hCGβ) and its hyperglycosylated variant (hCGβ-H) is a phenomenon confirmed for tumors of different origin. Despite numerous studies, the mechanism of hCGβ action in cancer remains unknown especially that not all tumors secreting hCGβ express the receptor for human chorionic gonadotropin ...

Hormonal and Allosteric Regulation of the Luteinizing Hormone/Chorionic Gonadotropin Receptor
Luteinizing hormone (LH) and human chorionic gonadotropin (CG), like follicle-stimulating hormone, are the most important regulators of the reproductive system.
