ABSTRACT Aims Similar to blood, saliva contains a broad range of biomarkers and may offer a non‐invasive, repeatable specimen for endocrine and metabolic assessment. This review aims to synthesise and evaluate recent advances in the clinical translation of salivary biomarkers, while providing a critical assessment of the diagnostic reliability and ...

Use of 24kHz ultrasound to improve sulfate precipitation from wastewater [PDF]
Elevated sulfate concentrations in industrial effluent can lead to a number of significant problems, the most serious of which is the corrosion of concrete sewers as a result of hydrogen sulfide induced biogenic sulfuric acid attack; hydrogen sulfide can

BackgroundOptimal management of androgen excess in 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21OHD) remains challenging. 11-oxygenated-C19 steroids (11-oxyandrogens) have emerged as promising biomarkers of disease control, but data regarding their response to treatment

Fetal growth restriction is associated with placental metabolic adaptations. In small‐for‐gestational‐age placenta (SGA), cholesterol receptors and steroidogenic enzymes are upregulated, enhancing steroidogenesis. NAD salvage pathway is also increased to support NADP+/NADPH requirements.

Pregnenolone sulfate increases hippocampal acetylcholine release and spatial recognition.
International audienceThe pregnenolone sulfate is a neurosteroid with promnesic properties. Recently, a correlation between endogenous levels of pregnenolone sulfate in the hippocampus and performance in a spatial memory task has been reported in aged ...

The emerging role of the Hippo signaling pathway in interorgan crosstalk
Hippo signaling functions as a central hub of interorgan communication. Systemic cues from the gut, adipose tissue, and skeletal muscle—including hormones, metabolites, and microbial signals—regulate YAP/TAZ activity in a tissue‐ and context‐dependent manner.

Physiological and Behavioural Characterisation of a Novel Steroid Sulfatase‐Deficient Mouse
STS‐deficient mice are grossly healthy and breed as expected, but are mildly hyperactive and have heavier hearts compared with sex‐matched wildtype controls. ABSTRACT Steroid sulfatase (STS) cleaves sulphate groups from steroid hormones. In humans, STS deficiency is associated with X‐linked ichthyosis, an increased predisposition to neurodevelopmental ...

Competition and coexistence of sulfate-reducing bacteria, acetogens and methanogens in a lab-scale anaerobic bioreactor as affected by changing substrate to sulfate ratio [PDF]
The microbial population structure and function of natural anaerobic communities maintained in lab-scale continuously stirred tank reactors at different lactate to sulfate ratios and in the absence of sulfate were analyzed using an integrated approach of

Citric acid wastewater as electron donor for biological sulfate reduction [PDF]
Citrate-containing wastewater is used as electron donor for sulfate reduction in a biological treatment plant for the removal of sulfate. The pathway of citrate conversion coupled to sulfate reduction and the microorganisms involved were investigated ...

Pregnenolone Biosynthesis in the Rat Salivary Gland and Its Inhibitory Effect on Secretion
Pregnenolone (PRG), a major neurosteroid, suppressed carbachol-induced salivary secretion in perfused submandibular gland in rats. These effects were enhanced and depressed by agonistic muscimol (MUS) and antagonistic bicuculline to the γ-aminobutyric ...
