Society for Endocrinology Clinical Practice Guideline for the Evaluation of Androgen Excess in Women
ABSTRACT Context Androgen excess is common in women and refers to clinical or biochemical evidence of elevated androgenic steroids such as testosterone. It is associated with underlying polycystic ovary syndrome in the majority of cases. However severe androgen excess is less common and may indicate the presence of underlying adrenal or ovarian ...

ABSTRACT Objective Metformin decreases elevated levels of pituitary hormones. Little is known about the association between the reproductive axis and hormonal effects of this drug. The purpose of our study was to investigate whether activity of the hypothalamic‐pituitary‐gonadal axis determines metformin action on prolactin levels in men with prolactin

Implication of GPRASP2 in the Proliferation and Hair Cell‐Forming of Cochlear Supporting Cells
Schematic diagram of GPRASP2‐mediated SCs proliferation and HCs formation. GPRASP2 deficiency results in increased lysosomal degradation of SMO. GPRASP2‐mediated SMO/GLI1 signalling promotes SC proliferation, which contributes to HC formation. GPRASP2‐mediated SMO/β‐catenin signalling is implicated in HCs fate specification and differentiation ...

Lactate and Lactylation in AKI‐to‐CKD: Epigenetic Regulation and Therapeutic Opportunities
ABSTRACT Lactate is not only a byproduct of glycolysis, but is also considered an energy source, gluconeogenic precursor, signalling molecule and protein modifier during the process of cellular metabolism. The discovery of lactylation reveals the multifaceted functions of lactate in cellular metabolism and opens new avenues for lactate‐related research.
