Sex Hormones and the Risk of Nasal Polyps: A Two‐Sample Mendelian Randomization Study

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The pathophysiological roles of sex hormones in airway inflammation have drawn much attention recently. We aimed to explore the causal effect of sex hormones on chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and nasal polyps (NP) via a Mendelian randomization (MR) study.

Hormones reflect the impacts of reproductive rest on subsequent pregnancy in a marine predator

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract After reaching sexual maturity, iteroparous female vertebrates may intermittently skip producing offspring, effectively taking a year of reproductive rest. This may confer benefits to lifetime fitness by enhancing future reproductive success.

The Roles of EDA2R in Ageing and Disease

Aging Cell, EarlyView.
Elevated expression of the ectodysplasin A2 receptor (EDA2R) has been linked to ageing and disease. We appraise the roles of EDA2R in these processes, exploring mechanisms of action, biomarker potential and therapeutic relevance of EDA2R in multiple contexts. ABSTRACT Ageing is a complex biological process driven, in part, by inflammaging.

Kisspeptin as a test of hypothalamic dysfunction in pubertal and reproductive disorders

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract The hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal axis is regulated by the gonadotropin‐releasing hormone pulse generator in the hypothalamus. This is comprised of neurons that secrete kisspeptin in a pulsatile manner to stimulate the release of GnRH, and, in turn, downstream gonadotropins from the pituitary gland, and subsequently sex steroids and ...

Impact of age at first visit on glycolipid metabolism, bone metabolism, and fertility potential in patients with Klinefelter syndrome

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Classic Klinefelter syndrome (KS) is characterized by one extra X chromosome (47, XXY), leading to hypergonadotropic hypogonadism and higher risk of alterations in glycolipid homeostasis, cardiovascular diseases, and low bone mineral density. Most frequently, KS is diagnosed in adulthood because of infertility.
