The Role of FSH in Osteoporosis & Ensuing Susceptibility to Fractures

open access: yes, 2021
Around 10 million Americans suffer from osteoporosis, a disease that leads to over 1.5 million fractures every year and costs the national health care system between 17 to 20 billion dollars annually.

Semen quality in patients with testicular cancer is associated with age and with greatly elevated levels of beta human chorionic gonadotropin

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Poor semen quality is a well‐known feature in patients with testicular germ cell tumours (GCTs) at the time of diagnosis but the underlying biological reasons are incompletely understood. Objectives This study aimed to identify GCT‐specific clinical factors that are involved with poor semen quality in GCT patients.

The effects of insulin and follicle-simulating hormone (FSH) during in vitro development of ovarian goat preantral follicles and the relative mRNA expression for insulin and FSH receptors and cytochrome P450 aromatase in cultured follicles

open access: yes, 2012
The actions of different concentrations of insulin alone or in combination with follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) were evaluated by in vitro follicular development and mRNA expression of cytochrome P450 aromatase (CYP19A1) and as receptors for insulin ...

Healthy Aging Men Do Not Suffer From Relevant Limitations of Their Reproductive Functions

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background While metabolic disorders are well‐established contributors to testosterone decline and erectile dysfunction (ED), little is known about the natural progression of reproductive parameters in healthy aging men. Objectives This study aimed to evaluate longitudinal changes in reproductive parameters and sought to determine the ...

Comprehensive Quantification of Oligoasthenozoospermia Induced by Obesity, Reproductive Toxicants, and Their Combination in Rat Models

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Oligoasthenozoospermia is a leading cause of male infertility and has been increasingly associated with the global surge in obesity and exposure to reproductive toxicants. Despite extensive research on each factor individually, their combined pathological effects remain poorly understood.

Incidence of Gonadal and Extragonadal Germ Cell Tumours in Patients With Klinefelter Syndrome

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Klinefelter's syndrome (KS; 47, XXY) is associated with an altered risk profile for malignancies compared with non‐KS males. In particular, several reports have noted a striking association between KS and extragonadal germ cell tumours (EGCTs), especially in the mediastinum, whereas the risk of testicular germ cell tumours (TGCTs ...

Impairing follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) signaling in vivo: Targeted disruption of the FSH receptor leads to aberrant gametogenesis and hormonal imbalance

open access: yes, 1998
Pituitary gonadotropins follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone stimulate the gonads by regulating germ cell proliferation and differentiation.

FSH and LH enhance the development of goat preantral follicles cultured in vitro [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
This study evaluated the effect of increased follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) concentrations on the expression of mRNA for LH receptors after in vitro culture of goat preantral follicles (≥150 µm) for 18 days.

Peroxiredoxin 4 Involved in Spermatogenesis by Affecting Oxidative Stress and Ferroptosis

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The main functions of testes are sperm production and androgen secretion in testicular befitting microenvironment. Excessive level of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) from metabolism and cellular events can lead to oxidative stress (OS) and ferroptosis, which injure the functions of mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of ...

Characterization of the somatostatin system in tilapia: implications for growth and reproduction

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology
Somatostatin (SST) plays diverse physiological roles in vertebrates, particularly in regulating growth hormone secretion from the pituitary. While the function of SST as a neuromodulator has been studied extensively, its role in fish and mammalian ...
