Xenoestrogens Ethinyl Estradiol and Zearalenone Cause Precocious Puberty in Female Rats via Central Kisspeptin Signaling [PDF]
Xenoestrogens from synthetic or natural origin represent an increasing risk of disrupted endocrine functions including the physiological activity of the hypothalamo-pituitary-gonad axis.

Parallel Increase in Childhood Anorexia Nervosa and Early Puberty During the COVID‐19 Pandemic
ABSTRACT Objective During the COVID‐19 pandemic, an increase in anorexia nervosa (AN), specifically childhood AN, as well as in central precocious puberty (CPP) and early‐onset puberty (EOP), was reported. The aim of this study was to explore whether there was a population‐level association between increases in both disorders and to discuss possible ...

Longitudinal follow-up of bone density and body composition in children with precocious or early puberty before, during and after cessation of GnRH agonist therapy [PDF]
We studied bone mineral density (BMD), bone metabolism, and body composition in 47 children with central precocious puberty (n = 36) or early puberty (n = 11) before, during, and after cessation of GnRH agonist.

Environmental chemical exposures and breast cancer [PDF]
As a hormone-sensitive condition with no single identifiable cause, breast cancer is a major health problem. It is characterized by a wide range of contributing factors and exposures occurring in different combinations and strengths across a lifetime ...

Pollutant‐induced epithelial damage also leads to a cascade of harmful effects, including reduced mucus secretion, decreased luminal pH, and enhanced absorption of toxins. These changes contribute to oxidative stress (↑ malondialdehyde (MDA); ↓ superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione (GSH), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), and heightened ...

Novas perspectivas no diagnóstico do hipogonadismo pediátrico masculino: a importância do AMH como marcador de células de Sertoli [PDF]
Sertoli cells are the most active cell population in the testis during infancy and childhood. In these periods of life, hypogonadism can only be evidenced without stimulation tests, if Sertoli cell function is assessed.

Expanding the Genetic and Phenotypic Spectrum of POLRMT‐Related Mitochondrial Disease
We identified potentially damaging monoallelic and biallelic POLRMT variants in affected individuals from six unrelated families, thus extending both the clinical and genetic phenotypes of POLRMT‐related mitochondrial disease. ABSTRACT Mitochondrial diseases are a complex group of conditions exhibiting significant phenotypic and genetic heterogeneity ...

Clinical exome sequencing (CES) was performed on 108 Spanish patients with suspected hereditary spastic paraparesis (HSP), using a virtual 129‐gene panel and HPO‐based variant filtering. A molecular diagnosis was achieved in 53% of cases, with 21 causative genes identified (8 novel variants), SPAST (AD) and SPG7 (AR) being the most frequent genetic ...
