Thimet oligopeptidase expression is differentially regulated in neuroendocrine and spermatid cell lines by transcription factor binding to SRY (sex-determining region Y), CAAT and CREB (cAMP-response-element-binding protein) promoter consensus sequences [PDF]
The zinc metalloprotease thimet oligopeptidase (EP24.15) is found predominantly in the neuroendocrine–gonadal axis where it is implicated in the processing of bioactive peptides, including GnRH (gonadotropin-releasing hormone), β-neoendorphin, α-neoendorphin and dynorphin(1–8), the progression of spermatogenesis and the normal clearance of β-amyloid in

Why women see differently from the way men see? A review of sex differences in cognition and sports
The differences of learning and memory between males and females have been well documented and confirmed by both human and animal studies. The sex differences in cognition started from early stage of neuronal development and last through entire lifespan.

Downregulation of long non‐coding
Several studies have shown an important role for long non‐coding RNA (lncRNA) in breast cancer progression. The present study investigated the role of lncRNA Opa interacting protein 5‐antisense RNA 1 (OIP5‐AS1) in the progression of breast cancer. OIP5‐AS1 was significantly upregulated in breast cancer tissues and in breast cancer cell lines, and OIP5 ...

Abnormal Sex Chromosome Constitution and Longitudinal Growth: Serum Levels of Insulin-Like Growth Factor (IGF)-I, IGF Binding Protein-3, Luteinizing Hormone, and Testosterone in 109 Males with 47,XXY, 47,XYY, or Sex-Determining Region of the Y Chromosome (SRY)-Positive 46,XX Karyotypes [PDF]
Abstract Context: Growth is a highly complex process regulated by the interaction between sex steroids and the GH IGF-axis. However, other factors such as sex chromosome-related genes play independent roles. Aim: The aim of the study was to evaluate the role of abnormal chromosome constitution for longitudinal growth in ...

Sex determination in mammals is controlled by the presence or absence of the Y-linked gene SRY. In the developing male (XY) gonad, sex-determining region of the Y (SRY) protein acts to up-regulate expression of the related gene, SOX9, a transcriptional ...

The aim of this study was to investigate the expression levels of microRNA-208 (miR-208) and sex-determining region Y-box 6 (SOX6) in patients with progressive cardiac hypertrophy. A total of 50 patients with essential hypertension accompanied by left ventricular hypertrophy, and 30 healthy individuals were enrolled.
