Living Together, Loving Apart: Health, Sexuality and Relationships in Middle‐Aged and Older Men in Europe
Andrology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background
Over time, family structures have grown more complex, diversifying adult relationships. While research has compared marital, cohabiting and living apart together relationships based on quality and health, less is known about their sexual dynamics.Clotilde Sparano, Giammarco Alderotti, Giulia Rastrelli, Giovanni Corona, Leen Antonio, Felipe F.

, 2013 This thesis investigates the biophysical properties of the pituitary hormone prolactin. The prolactin receptor is overexpressed in many types of cancer tissues, making prolactin a molecule of pharmacological interest.Vang, Januscore Semen Quality in Transgender Individuals Seeking Fertility Preservation
Andrology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background
Transgender individuals assigned male at birth (AMAB) may choose to preserve their fertility prior to starting gender‐affirming hormone therapy (GAHT). However, limited data exist regarding the baseline reproductive and hormonal characteristics of this population before and after GAHT.Maurizio De Rocco Ponce, Eden Troka, Massimiliano Raffo, Luis Miguel Malca Caballero, Alberto Ferlin, Andrea Salonia, Eduard Ruiz Castañé, Alberto Scala, Andrea Garolla, the Gender Incongruence Interdisciplinary Group (GIIG), Andrea Garolla, Anna Aprile, Camillo Barbisan, Anna Belloni Fortina, Valentina Camozzi, Elena Campello, Annamaria Cattelan, Chiara Ceolin, Fabrizio Dal Moro, Giorgio De Conti, Angela Favaro, Alberto Ferlin, Francesco Francini Pesenti, Michela Gatta, Marta Ghisi, Sandro Giannini, Laura Guazzarotti, Massimo Iafrate, Paolo Meneguzzo, Marina Miscioscia, Giulia Musso, Giancarlo Ottaviano, Corrado Marchese Ragona, Carlo Saccardi, Lolita Sasset, Rossana Schiavo, Giuseppe Sergi, Paolo Simioni, Benedetta Tascini, Eleonora Vania, Elisa Varotto, Francesca Venturini, Tommaso Vezzaro, Fabrizio Vianello +43 morewiley +1 more sourceDo prolactin and its receptor play a role in alopecia areata?
Indian Journal of Dermatology, 2018 Context: Studying the link between prolactin and autoimmunity has gained much ground over the past years. Its role played in alopecia areata (AA) is not clear yet, as previous reports yielded controversial results.Samar M El Tahlawi, Nermeen H El Eishi, Rima K Kahhal, Rehab A Hegazy, Ghada M El Hanafy, Rania M Abdel Hay, Olfat G Shaker +6 moredoaj +1 more sourceLoss‐of‐Function Variants in CCDC189 Cause Human Oligoasthenoteratozoospermia by Disrupting Sperm Flagellar and Acrosomal Architecture
Andrology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background
Oligoasthenoteratozoospermia (OAT), characterized by reduced sperm count, impaired motility, and abnormal morphology, is a major cause of male infertility with substantial genetic heterogeneity. However, the underlying genetic etiology remains unresolved in a large proportion of affected individuals.Jianteng Zhou, Ghulam Mustafa, Tingting Lin, Jingwei Ye, Huan Zhang, Hanwei Jiang, Kexin Yang, Guoning Huang, Qinghua Shi +8 morewiley +1 more sourceComparison of urinary prolactin and serum/urine prolactin ratio in hyperprolactinemic and macroprolactinemic patients
BMC Endocrine DisordersBackground Biologically, the monomeric form of prolactin is the most active. In measurement methods, all forms of prolactin are included in the assay; therefore, the presence of macroprolactin, causes a false increase in prolactin and misdiagnosis of ...Behnam Ein-Mozaffari, Akbar Aliasgharzadeh, Farzad Najafipour, Azam Moslemi, Mitra Niafar, Vahideh Sadra, Nasser Aghamohammadzadeh, Jalil Houshyar, Halimeh Amirazad +8 moredoaj +1 more sourceBreastfeeding, Cellular Immune Activation, and Myocardial Recovery in Peripartum Cardiomyopathy
JACC: Basic to Translational Science, 2019 Summary: The etiology of peripartum cardiomyopathy remains unknown. One hypothesis is that an increase in the 16-kDa form of prolactin is pathogenic and suggests that breastfeeding may worsen peripartum cardiomyopathy by increasing prolactin, while ...Agnes Koczo, MD, Amy Marino, MD, Arun Jeyabalan, MD, Uri Elkayam, MD, Leslie T.

Andrology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background
Nonobstructive azoospermia (NOA) is the most severe form of male infertility, with genetic factors contributing to approximately 30% of cases. However, only a small fraction of all NOA cases can be explained by the current genetic findings.Ao Ma, Hongyi Wang, Shengwei Ke, Ziqi Yu, Xun Wang, Zhiran Li, Yuhang Li, Lv Yao, Fuxing Zhang, Feifei Kong, Lingying Jiang, Xiaozhi Zhao, Beibei Zhang +12 morewiley +1 more source
