Prioritising research on endocrine disruption in the marine environment: a global perspective
ABSTRACT A healthy ocean is a crucial life support system that regulates the global climate, is a source of oxygen and supports major economic activities. A vast and understudied biodiversity from micro‐ to macro‐organisms is integral to ocean health.

Gene polymorphisms in primary biliary cirrhosis: association with the disease and hepatic osteopathy [PDF]
Genetic factors have been implicated in the pathogenesis of osteoporosis, a common disorder in primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC). Estrogen receptor-alpha gene (ER- ), vitamin-D-receptor gene (VDR) and IL-1-receptor-antagonist gene (IL-1RN) are all ...

ABSTRACT The etiology of ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is complex and not yet fully understood. Interleukin‐6 (IL‐6), vitamin D and the vitamin D receptor (VDR) play an important role in modulating immune response, and Torque teno virus is considered a marker of immune status. This case–control study aimed to investigate the predisposition to AS. A total

Dysbiosis in the Gut‐Liver Axis Is Associated With Low Bone Mass During Murine Cholestasis
Dysbiosis in the gut‐liver axis drives a dysregulation in bile acid metabolism that increases bile acid efflux into systemic circulation and the bone marrow. Bile acid signaling in the marrow promotes osteoclastogenesis and suppresses osteoblastogenesis, which drives bone loss during cholestatic liver disease in mice. ABSTRACT The gut‐liver axis is the

An investigation into the link between vitamin D status, erectile dysfunction and cardiovascular risk factors in ageing men in New Zealand : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Nutritional Science at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
Background Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death worldwide, particularly amongst ageing males. Prevention and/or early identification and effective intervention are essential in the fight against CVD.

Addressing $R_K$ and neutrino mixing in a class of $U(1)_X$ models
We present a class of minimal $U(1)_X$ models as a plausible solution to the $R_K$ anomaly that can also help reproduce the neutrino mixing pattern. The symmetries and the corresponding $X$-charges of the fields are determined in a bottom-up approach ...

A lack of standard approaches for testing and reporting the performance of metal halide perovskites and organic semiconductor radiation detectors has resulted in inconsistent interpretation of performance parameters, impeding progress in the field. This Perspective recommends key metrics and experimental details, which are suggested for reporting in ...

Selective activation of vitamin D receptor by lithocholic acid acetate, a bile acid derivative
The vitamin D receptor (VDR), a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily, mediates the biological actions of the active form of vitamin D, 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3.
