Estrous behavior in dairy cows: identification of underlying mechanisms and gene functions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Selection in dairy cattle for a higher milk yield has coincided with declined fertility. One of the factors is reduced expression of estrous behavior. Changes in systems that regulate the estrous behavior could be manifested by altered gene expression ...

Chronic Hypoxia Disrupts Spermatogenesis Through ASXL2–EZH2–Mediated Microtubule Destabilization

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals the mechanism by which chronic hypoxia impairs spermatogenesis via the ASXL2–EZH2 axis, hindering the transition of spermatids from round to elongated forms. Key findings reveal that under hypoxic conditions, downregulated ASXL2 expression reduces EZH2 binding to the CEP162 promoter, leading to decreased H3K27me3 modification and ...

Induction of final oocyte maturation in Cyprinidae fish by hypothalamic factors: a review

open access: yesVeterinární Medicína, 2009
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone in Cyprinidae as in other Vertebrates functions as a brain signal which stimulates the secretion of luteinizing hormone from the pituitary gland. Two forms of gonadotropin-releasing hormone have been identified in cyprinids,

Adrenal luteinizing hormone releasing hormone receptors. [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Histochemistry & Cytochemistry, 1978
Paraffin sections of mouse adrenals processed with antiserum to luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) in the unlabeled antibody enzyme method reveal moderate staining in the cytoplasm of cells of zona fasciculata and reticularis. The stain is intensified upon pretreatment of sections with LHRH.

A Biomarker‐Driven Ovary–Endometrium Organ‐on‐a‐Chip Mimicking 3D Multicellular Complexity and Menstrual Cyclicity for Predicting Reproductive Toxicity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We present a dual‐organ, biomarker‐integrated ovaryendometrium organ‐on‐a‐chip that recapitulates 3D tissue complexity, menstrual cycle dynamics, and hormonal crosstalk. This platform enables real‐time, cell‐typespecific fluorescent readouts of reproductive toxicity using ANGPTL4 and SERPINB2 as early‐response reporters.

Secondary Amenorrhea with Low Serum Luteinizing Hormone and Follicle-stimulating Hormone Caused by an Inhibin A- and Inhibin B-producing Granulosa Cell Tumor

open access: yesTaiwanese Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2009
Objective: Here, we report a case of secondary amenorrhea with low serum luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone levels due to an inhibin A- and inhibin B-producing granulosa cell tumor of the ovary.

Prolactin is a strong candidate for the regulation of luteal steroidogenesis in vizcachas (Lagostomus maximus) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Prolactin (PRL) is essential for the maintenance of the corpora lutea and the production of progesterone (P4) during gestation of mice and rats, which makes it a key factor for their successful reproduction.

IGFBP5 Restores Endometrial Receptivity and Rescues Implantation Failure in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Impaired endometrial receptivity contributes to the poor pregnancy outcomes in women with PCOS. The authors found that decreased endometrial IL‐22 levels and disrupted STAT3‐IGFBP5 signaling pathway contributed to impaired endometrial receptivity. Supplementation with IL‐22 or IGFBP5 exerts a protective effect on implantation failure in PCOS‐like mice,

Association of the genetic variants of luteinizing hormone, luteinizing hormone receptor and polycystic ovary syndrome

open access: yesReproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2012
Background High circulating luteinizing hormone (LH) level is a typical biochemical feature of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) whose pathophysiology is still unclear.

Low estrogen doses normalize testosterone and estradiol levels to the female range in transgender women

open access: yesClinics, 2018
OBJECTIVE: The ideal dosage of cross-sex hormones remains unknown. The aim of this study was to evaluate the luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, testosterone, estradiol and prolactin levels after low-dose estrogen therapy with or without ...
