Filamin A in the ovary: a mediator of granulosa cell functions

Reproduction and Fertility
Filamin A (FLNA) regulates the mechanical properties and shape of cells by cross-linking actin filaments orthogonally. It also serves as a scaffold for numerous interacting proteins, thereby coordinating cell differentiation and morphogenesis.

Immunolocalization of steroidogenic enzymes in the vaginal mucous of Galea spixii during the estrous cycle. [PDF]

, 2017
BackgroundThe synthesis of sex steroids is controlled by several enzymes such as17α-hydroxylase cytochrome P450 (P450c17) catalyzing androgen synthesis and aromatase cytochrome P450 (P450arom) catalyzing estrogen synthesis, both of which must complex ...

Proteomic analysis of the zone of degeneration at the mitosis–meiosis transition stage in wild‐caught male catshark (Scyliorhinus canicula), correlated with an unusually high‐water temperature in the English Channel

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract In the context of current global change, variations in water temperature are one of the environmental conditions with serious consequences for marine life, including reproductive processes. In the small spotted catshark Scyliorhinus canicula, spermatogenesis occurs in spermatocysts composed of synchronously developing germ cells associated ...

Serum Starvation Affects the Transcriptomic and Proliferative Response to ACTH in Primary Cultures of Rat Adrenocortical Cells

Cells
The adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) is a key regulator of adrenal cortex function, promoting glucocorticoid synthesis and modulating cell proliferation.

Investigation of \u3cem\u3ede novo\u3c/em\u3e cholesterol synthetic capacity in the gonads of goldfish (\u3cem\u3eCarassius auratus\u3c/em\u3e) exposed to the phytosterol beta-sitosterol [PDF]

, 2006
Total and intra-mitochondrial gonadal cholesterol concentrations are decreased in fish exposed to the phytoestrogen beta-sitosterol (beta-sit). The present study examined the potential for beta-sit to disrupt de novo cholesterol synthesis in the gonads ...

Pregnancy shifts endothelial progenitor cell morphology and function: Role of metabolism, pro‐inflammatory cytokines and fetal sex

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend We recruited non‐pregnant women (NP), women in early pregnancy (EP) and late pregnancy (LP) for isolation of endothelial colony forming cells (ECFCs) via density gradient centrifugation. Plasma supernatant was collected for analysis of markers of glucose and lipid metabolism (fasting glucose, triglycerides, cholesterol, low ...

Molecular profiling of signaling pathways involved in chicken ovarian follicle development by transcriptome sequencing

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
Ovarian follicle development in chickens is a dynamic and closely controlled biological process crucial to avian reproduction. Each stage of folliculogenesis is characterized by distinct morphological and molecular alterations, regulated by complex ...

Steroidogenic Factor 1 (SF1) Immunohistochemical Stain Is Sensitive and Specific for the Cytopathologic Identification of Intrapancreatic Ectopic Splenic Tissue

Diagnostic Cytopathology, Volume 54, Issue 5, Page 327-331, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Accessory spleens result from failure of splenic fusion during development and are occasionally located in the pancreatic tail, radiographically appearing as solid or solid/cystic lesions. Fine needle aspiration (FNA) easily identifies accessory spleens in most samples based on architecture and using CD8 to highlight splenic ...

Modulation of bone morphogenetic protein activity by melatonin in ovarian steroidogenesis

Reproductive Medicine and Biology, 2018
Background Melatonin regulates circadian and seasonal rhythms and the activities of hormones and cytokines that are expressed in various tissues, including the ovary, in which melatonin receptors are expressed. In the ovary, follicular growth occurs as a
