Ascorbic Acid Modulates Collagen Properties in Glucocorticoid‐Induced Osteoporotic Bone: Insights into Chemical, Mechanical, and Biological Regulation

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Osteoporosis from long‐term glucocorticoid (GIOP) use elevates susceptibility to fracture. This study shows GCs impair ascorbic acid (AA) metabolism in osteoblasts, collagen synthesis and extracellular matrix integrity. AA enhanced collagen biochemical and mechanical properties and restored osteoblast and endothelial function. These findings underscore

Sex Hormones Regulate Hepatic Fetuin Expression in Male and Female Rats

Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2014
Background: To date, there are limited studies on the sex-specific relationship between fetuins (Ft-A and Ft-B) and metabolic diseases. Our recent proteomic study has shown that fetuins may play sex-dependent roles in obesity and diabetes. In the present

An Inconvenient Variable: Sex Hormones and Their Impact on T Cell Responses

Journal of Immunology, 2019
Epidemiologic data demonstrate sex differences in autoimmune diseases, immune responses against infection, and antitumor immunity, and accumulating evidence suggests a major role for sex hormones in mediating these differences.

Sex hormones differently regulate lipid metabolism genes in primary human hepatocytes

BMC Endocrine Disorders
Background Prevalence of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is higher in men than in women. Hormonal and genetic causes may account for the sex differences in MASLD.
