Expression of corticoid‐regulatory genes in the gills of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) parr and smolt and during salinity acclimation

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract In teleost fishes, cortisol is the major corticoid and has both glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid actions. However, how fish tissues discriminate between these distinct corticosteroid actions is unclear. In mammals, the major factors responsible for intracellular corticosteroid regulation are glucocorticoid receptors (grs) and the ...

Adaptation to harshness is fundamentally different from the adaptive stress response: Results from a 20‐year‐long case study in African striped mice

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
Animals in harsh environments rely on specialised adaptations. Two decades of field research on African striped mice (Rhabdomys pumilio) in the Succulent Karoo semi‐desert reveal a distinct ‘harshness response’—marked by reduced metabolism and glucocorticoid levels—that differs fundamentally from the classic stress response.

Prolactina e o laboratório.

open access: yesActa Médica Portuguesa, 2011
Up to 95% of adult serum prolactin is monomeric prolactin with a molecular weight of 23 kDa. Macroprolactin is a prolactin-antibody complex of molecular weight greater than 100 kDa and constitutes less than 1% of circulating prolactin.

Maternal Obesity and MicroRNAs in Breast Milk: Implications for Infant Developmental Programming

open access: yesObesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This review explores the relationship between maternal obesity and alterations in the expression of microRNAs (miRNAs) in breast milk, highlighting how these changes may influence the developmental programming of the infant. Evidence suggests that maternal obesity can affect the bioactive composition of breast milk, including miRNA profiles ...

Salivary Proteomic Signatures in Pregnant Women With Excessive Gingival Bleeding

open access: yesOral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This observational, cross‐sectional, and analytical study aimed to explore the pathophysiological mechanisms of gingivitis in pregnancy by analyzing the salivary proteomic profile according to gingival bleeding status. Materials and Methods Pregnant women at the 27th week of gestation or beyond were categorized into two groups: those

Effect of prolactin on penile erection: a cross-sectional study

open access: yesAsian Journal of Andrology, 2019
Although elevated prolactin levels have been shown to inhibit penile erection, the relationship between prolactin and erection of the penile tip or base has not been extensively researched. We therefore investigated the prolactin's effects on erection of
