We concluded that the smooth muscle relaxant effect of progesterone and probably estrogen might have contributed to the above result.Arora, DimpleKaur, ParminderArora, MohitGupta, UrmilArora D, Kaur P, Arora M, Gupta U. Influence of menstrual cycle on lung functions in asthmatic females. Indian...
Afterwards, this hormone sends signals to the brain to reduce the levels of FSH. Female sex hormones Sex hormone released by the ovaries are androgens, estrogen, and progestogen. As it happens in the testicles, the regulation of steroidogenesis in females depends on FSH and LH. In this case,...
Estrogen stimulates the synthesis of binding globulins; thus SHBG concentrations are nearly twice as high in females as in males. Both free and albumin-bound estradiol are considered biologically active, although the clinical significance of this is unclear. Effects on Musculoskeletal Function Estrogen ...
For all men, serum levels of FSH, LH, and testosterone were measured; some (53 cases) were also studied by semen analysis. For women, tests for serum levels of LH, FSH, estrogen, and progesterone were performed. Results: Overall, 246 patients (159 females, 87 males) were studied. In ...
In response to various immune challenges, females show better survival than males; the X chromosome has an important role in this immunological advantage. X chromosome-linked diseases are usually restricted to males, who have only one copy of the X chromosome; however, females are more prone to...
Sex hormones released by the testicles in males involve testosterone, while hormones released by ovaries in females include estrogen and progesterone. What are the three female hormones? The main female sex hormone is estrogen released by the ovaries. In addition to estrogen, progesterone and ...
To examine whether TAp63 mediates the effect of estrogen on body weight control and glucose homeostasis, 12-week-old female pomc-TAp63 KO mice and control mice were anesthetized with inhaled isoflurane. As previously described39,52, bilateral ovariectomized (OVX) was performed followed by s.c. ...
In general, females have a much higher prevalence of chronic pain [8]; however, the vast majority of animal research on pain has been performed using males [9, 10]. Of interest, recent studies using mouse models have shown a sex difference in the mechanisms of nerve injury-induced ...
The influence of female hormone secretion during different menstrual cycles was considered. During the luteal phase, progesterone tends to increase body temperature, whereas during the follicular phase, estrogen tends to decrease body temperature. Therefore, the hormonal effects on body temperature may hav...
KDM4B contributes to the formation of an active complex with transactivation function 1 (AF1) and steroid receptor coactivator 3 (SRC-3) in the presence of estrogen [163]. Moreover, KDM4B and ER were shown to form a ternary complex with FBX022 [164]. The amount of this complex plays a...
