Role of Testosterone Signaling in Microglia: A Potential Role for Sex‐Related Differences in Alzheimer's Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Testosterone enhances Aβ‐induced autophagy in microglia via the non‐genomic testosterone receptor GPRC6A, promoting Aβ clearance by suppressing ERK phosphorylation and inhibiting mTOR activation. In male 5xFAD mice, testicular removal reduces microglial autophagy and Aβ clearance, which is restored by testosterone.

DAPK3 is Essential for DBP‐Induced Autophagy of Mouse Leydig Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study has confirmed that death‐associated protein kinase 3 (DAPK3) is essential for dibutyl phthalate (DBP)‐induced autophagy of mouse Leydig cells, and is regulated by both transcription factor specific protein 2 (Sp2) and parkin RBR E3 ubiquitin‐protein ligase (PRKN), and melatonin can alleviate DBP‐induced autophagy of the cells.

Extracellular vesicles in mouse testes elevate the level of serum testosterone

open access: yesReproductive and Developmental Medicine, 2019
Objective: Testosterone plays an essential role in maintaining spermatogenesis and male fertility, and the primary known source of testosterone is testicular Leydig cells, which are regulated by luteinizing hormone (LH).

Risk Factors and Predictive Models for Sarcopenia in Older Adults

open access: yesAGING MEDICINE, EarlyView.
Independent risk factors for sarcopenia identified by Lasso regression and logistic regression in the study were BMI, prealbumin, albumin/globulin ratio (A/G ratio), serum creatinine, and phosphorus. These factors were used to construct a nomogram model and a decision tree model. Both models showed effectiveness in predicting sarcopenia in older adults,

Using Redescription Mining to Relate Clinical and Biological Characteristics of Cognitively Impaired and Alzheimer's Disease Patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We used redescription mining to find interpretable rules revealing associations between those determinants that provide insights about the Alzheimer's disease (AD). We extended the CLUS-RM redescription mining algorithm to a constraint-based redescription mining (CBRM) setting, which enables several modes of targeted exploration of specific, user ...

Testosterone Deficiency and Testosterone Treatment in Older Men [PDF]

open access: yesGerontology, 2016
Frailty is a clinical condition related to changes in metabolism, to sarcopenia, and to decline in muscle mass and strength, bone mineral density, and physical function with aging. The pathophysiology of frailty is multifactorial and associated with comorbidities.

Natural History of NAA15‐Related Neurodevelopmental Disorder Through Adolescence

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The NatA N‐terminal acetyltransferase complex is composed of the NAA10 catalytic subunit and the auxiliary subunits NAA15 and HYPK. While those with variants in the enzymatic subunit develop Ogden Syndrome, individuals with variants in the NAA15 coding region develop NAA15‐related neurodevelopmental syndrome, which presents with a wide array ...

Sex Hormone Binding Globulin Modifies Testosterone Action and Metabolism in Prostate Cancer Cells

open access: yesInternational Journal of Endocrinology, 2016
Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG) is the major serum carrier of sex hormones. However, growing evidence suggests that SHBG is internalised and plays a role in regulating intracellular hormone action.
