“Tremble, pests”: Insect natural enemy‐induced changes in pests before attack and their implications for biological control

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Abstract Insect natural enemies, encompassing predators and parasitoids, serve as vital regulators of pest populations and architects of ecosystem balance. Most studies on natural enemies have focused on understanding the mechanisms by which these insects eliminate pests after an attack.

The spatiotemporal expression pattern of the bone morphogenetic protein family in rat ovary cell types during the estrous cycle. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
In the mammalian ovary, great interest in the expression and function of the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) family has been recently generated from evidence of their critical role in determining folliculogenesis and female fertility.

Regulatory mechanisms of reproduction in locusts and grasshoppers

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Regulatory networks composed of numerous coding and noncoding genes play crucial roles in the reproduction of locusts and grasshoppers. This review integrates mechanistic advances in reproductive regulation, highlighting environmentally adaptive pathways and providing prospective targets for eco‐friendly pesticides.

Rodent Models of Non-classical Progesterone Action Regulating Ovulation

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2017
It is becoming clear that steroid hormones act not only by binding to nuclear receptors that associate with specific response elements in the nucleus but also by binding to receptors on the cell membrane. In this newly discovered manner, steroid hormones

Addressing biases in sliding window analysis gives new insight into the response of parturition date to weather in a wild mammal

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Animal breeding phenology in temperate and high latitude regions is often predicted by weather variables, such as temperature. Much work on this topic has focused on taxonomic groups that employ adaptive plastic responses to annual variation in an environmental cue, with analytical approaches developed to determine when weather has an effect and the ...

Efficacy of a New Postpartum Transition Protocol for Avoiding Pregnancy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Introduction: The postpartum period is a challenging time for family planning, especially for women who breastfeed. Breastfeeding delays the return of menses (lactational amenorrhea), but ovulation often occurs before first menses.

Circulating Profiles of the Bile Acid Metabolomics in Patients With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Treated With Metformin or Canagliflozin

open access: yesPharmacotherapy: The Journal of Human Pharmacology and Drug Therapy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Bile acids are indispensable modulators in the development of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Our previous study identified that metformin and canagliflozin have similar efficacy in patients with PCOS combined with insulin resistance (IR).

Molecular mechanisms of reproductive function abnormalities in women with lipid metabolism disorders (a review of literature) [PDF]

open access: yesГинекология, 2015
In recent years a large amount of data on a varied effect of the adipose tissue on a female reproductive system was accumulated. Molecular mechanisms of regulation reproductive function by hormones of the adipose tissue are discussed in the article.

Multiple eumenorrheic cycles are necessary to observe a significant increase in estrogen exposure and ovulation in exercising women with functional hypothalamic oligo/amenorrhea undergoing a nutritional intervention: Insights from the REFUEL study

open access: yesPM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Due to consequences of energy‐related oligo‐/amenorrhea (Oligo/Amen) among exercising females, recovery of menses (ROM) is a priority. ROM is inconsistently defined and rarely reported with reproductive hormone (estrogen, progesterone) data, making it difficult to know when females achieve adequate recovery. Objective The purpose of
