The organ culture of the rat ventral prostate was chosen as a model to determine whether any of the estrogen effects in vivo on the prostate are direct and expressed at the hormone concentrations normally found in the male. During 2 weeks of culture, estradiol at the high concentration of 105...
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 study, we investigated the expression of hepatic...

摘要: Since the discovery by Lillie1 that the free-martin is a femalewhich is modified in the male direction by the action of male sex hormones from a co-twin embryo, investigation has centered on the problem of whether sex-differentiation is more or less controllable or even...
The objective was to describe influences of sex hormones on the male voice in an elderly cohort. Sixty-three elderly males were recruited to undergo assessment of voice parameters, stroboscopy, voice-related questionnaires, a blood draw, and an ultrasound examination of the laryngeal skeleton. The...
Objective To investigate the effects of female sex hormones in cow's milk on metabolism of blood lipid in young male rats.Methods Forty-eight male Sprague-Dawley rats aged 21 days old were assigned randomly to 4 groups,each containing 12 rats,and fed with quantitative milk from postpartum cow...
Ageing and diabetes mellitus (DM) are known to affect sex hormones. Several studies have reported on sex hormones in male hemodialysis patients (HDPs) and renal transplant recipients (RTRs). None of those studies had excluded the effect of either ageing or DM, which might be one of the reaso...
