Abstract Sexual differentiation in the equine fetus involves coordinated morphogenetic processes that shape both the gonads and the genital ducts. Although the formation of testes and ovaries has been relatively well documented, the temporal dynamics and morphometric patterns of the mesonephric (Wolffian) and paramesonephric (Müllerian) ducts remain ...

The majority of physiological actions of testosterone and dihydrotestosterone are mediated by the androgen receptor, a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily, encoded as a single gene on the X-chromosome. Androgen receptor has four functional domains, N-terminal, DNA binding, hinge and ligand binding.

Origin and diversification of steroids: Co-evolution of enzymes and nuclear receptors
Recent sequencing of amphioxus and sea urchin genomes has provided important data for understanding the origins of enzymes that synthesize adrenal and sex steroids and the receptors that mediate physiological response to these vertebrate steroids ...

The localization of androgen receptors in human bone.
Androgens have important effects on the human skeleton, and deficiency has been associated with bone loss in both males and females. The skeletal actions of androgens may be mediated directly via the androgen receptor (AR) or indirectly via the estrogen ...

This review redefines the carotid bulb (CB) as a variable geometric dilation shaped by hemodynamics and the carotid sinus (CS) as a conserved neurohistological baroreceptor field. Distinguishing these entities clarifies a century of anatomical confusion and links geometry, neurohistology, and clinical interpretation within a unified framework ...

Kaempferol is a well-known natural flavonol reported to be a potential treatment for multiple cancers. In this study, we demonstrated that cell growth of androgen-sensitive LNCaP cells could be inhibited 33% by 5 μM kaempferol, around 60% by 10 μM ...

Isolation and characterization of androgen receptors from male target cells [PDF]
Androgens exert their action after binding to cytoplasmic receptors resulting in the formation of androgenreceptor complexes. This initial event is followed by activation, translocation to the nucleus and interaction with chromatin acceptor sites of the ...

Cytoplasmic androgen receptors were identified in the aorta of the baboon (Papio sp.). Using the synthetic androgen R1881 (17 beta-hydroxy-17 alpha-methyl-estra-4,9,11-trien-3-one) as probe, androgen receptors were demonstrated only when the incubation ...

Abstract Hyperostosis frontalis interna (HFI) is a frequently underrecognized condition characterized by overgrowth of the frontal endocranium, most commonly observed in post‐menopausal women. Although its etiology remains unclear, hormonal influences and a possible relationship with neurocognitive changes have been proposed.
