Activation of Extracellular-signal Regulated Kinase (ERK1/2) by Fluid Shear is Ca\u3csup\u3e2+\u3c/sup\u3e- and ATP-dependent in MC3T3-E1 Osteoblasts [PDF]

, 2008
To determine the role of Ca2+ signaling in activation of the Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase (MAPK) pathway, we subjected MC3T3-E1 pre-osteoblastic cells to inhibitors of Ca2+ signaling during application of fluid shear stress (FSS).

Is ‘living apart together’ a real advantage for patients consulting for sexual dysfunction? A cohort study

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Quantitative research on families has introduced a new category of relationship called living apart together, that is, when a couple in a committed relationship live in separate homes. This study aimed to confirm whether living apart together improves sexual relationships in those suffering from sexual dysfunction.

Corticotropin-releasing hormone interacts with interleukin-1 to regulate prostaglandin H synthase-2 expression in human myometrium during pregnancy and labor [PDF]

, 2013
Context: The onset of labor appears to involve the activation of myometrial inflammatory pathways, and transcription factors such as nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) control expression of the contraction-associated proteins required to induce a procontractile ...

Effect of prostaglandin E1 alone and in combination with theophylline or aspirin on collagen-induced platelet aggregation and on platelet nucleotides including adenosine 3′:5′-cyclic monophosphate

, 1970
1. Human platelet nucleotides were labelled by incubating platelet-rich plasma with [U-14C]adenine. With such platelets, the effects of prostaglandin E1, theophylline and aspirin were determined on collagen-induced platelet aggregation and release of ...

The effect of topical and intraurethral alprostadil on erectile function: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Erectile dysfunction (ED) affects up to 50% of men over 40. While phosphodiesterase‐5 inhibitors (PDE5i) are the first line of medical treatment, they are not always effective. Alprostadil, available in injectable, topical, and intraurethral forms, offers an alternative treatment modality.

Risk of priapism after dynamic penile Doppler ultrasound: Single‐centre experience on a large cohort of patients

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives To evaluate the risk of priapism in patients undergoing Dynamic—Penile duplex ultrasound (D‐PDU) who were referred to our Unit between January 2022 and December 2023. Patients and methods We enrolled 292 patients, of whom 268 underwent Dynamic—Penile duplex ultrasound for erectile dysfunction and 24 for Peyronie's disease.

Angiotensin-(1-7) increases osmotic water permeability in isolated toad skin [PDF]

, 2000
Angiotensin-(1-7) (Ang-(1-7)) increased osmotic water permeability in the isolated toad skin, a tissue with functional properties similar to those of the distal mammalian nephron. Concentrations of 0.1 to 10 μM were effective, with a peak at 20 min. This

Intra-Arterial Prostaglandin E1 Infusion in Patients with Rest Pain: Short-Term Results

The Scientific World Journal, 2012
Purpose. To present our results after short-term (1 month) intra-arterial infusion therapy of PGE1-alprostadil via a port system implanted in the ipsilateral external iliac artery (EIA) in patients with severe rest pain. Methods. Ten patients with severe

The Influence of Prostaglandin E1 and Use of Inhibitor Percentage on the Correlation between the Multiplate and VerifyNow in Patients on Dual Antiplatelet Therapy

Platelets, 2021
Platelet function tests (PFT), such as the Multiple Electrode Analyzer (Multiplate) and VerifyNow, show little concordance in patients using antiplatelet drugs.

Adjuvant‐induced arthritis induces epithelial proliferation and differential expression of SVS2 and SVS3 in the seminal vesicles

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an inflammatory disease triggered by chronic and systemic activation of the immune system, with consequences for male fertility. However, the influence of RA on sexual accessory glands remains poorly investigated.
