Neuroendocrine mechanisms responsible for elevated gonadotrophin‐releasing hormone and luteinising hormone pulses in polycystic ovary syndrome

Journal of Neuroendocrinology, EarlyView.
Abstract Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the leading cause of anovulatory infertility in premenopausal individuals with ovaries worldwide. Despite the diagnostic features of anovulation, ovarian cysts, and hyperandrogenemia, which indicate that ovary dysfunction is the cause of the syndrome, changes in central neuroendocrine circuits are a ...

Proteomic analysis of plasma proteins during fentanyl withdrawal in ovariectomized female rats with and without estradiol

Journal of Neuroendocrinology, EarlyView.
Abstract Evidence from both clinical and preclinical studies indicates that females experience a faster progression to drug addiction and more severe addiction‐related health effects compared with males. Estradiol (E2) plays a critical role in these sex differences.
