The year 2023 marks the mid-point of the 15-year period envisaged to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals, targets for global development adopted in September 2015 by all United Nations Member States. To help track where we are on this journey, and to amplify success stories, in this ...
before or after cross-hormone treatment, wish to compete in the female category. This has raised concerns about fairness and safety within female competition, and the issue of how to fairly and safely accommodate transgender persons in sport has been subject to much discussion [6,7,8,9,10,11...
EVs associated with the reproductive system are actively involved in the regulation of different physiological events, including gamete maturation, fertilization, and embryo and fetal development. EVs can influence follicle development, oocyte maturation, embryo production, and endometrial-conceptus ...
In addition to its essential role in the physiological control of longitudinal growth, growth-hormone (GH) is endowed with relevant metabolic functions, including anabolic actions in muscle, lipolysis in adipose-tissue and glycemic modulation. Adult obesity is known to negatively impact GH-axis, there...
microfluidic chips have been used to study the hormone regulation mechanism of the reproductive system. The complex process of interaction between individual cells, tissues and organs in the reproductive system and the nervous system can be visualized to better study the hormone regulation mechanism in...
In addition, Parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP/Pthlh) positive chondrocytes in the periarticular areas of perichondrium during fetal stage have the potential to act as progenitors as well. Lineage‐tracing experiments by Pthlh‐creER; R26RtdTomato mice indicated that both Pthlh‐E14.5 and ...
The vagus nerve communicates with the hypothalamus, a key brain region involved in hormone regulation and one component of thehypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. Due to thegut-hormone connection, your gut directly impacts estrogen metabolism and may help eliminate environmental toxins that can ...
and had fewer spasms. Betty was able to move better during her physical therapy sessions. Each time she felt the onset of muscle spasms she would stop all activity for a moment and ‘go into my trance’ to prevent a recurrence. For the first time in many months, she was feeling ...

Pituitary-derived growth hormone (GH) usually induces hepatic IGF-1 synthesis. When cows are in NEB, however, they become insulin resistant and down-regulation of the hepatic GH receptor causes IGF-1 synthesis to fall, so reducing circulating IGF-1 [10,11]. One effect of this uncoupling is...
