Go Girls!-Dance-Based Fitness to Increase Enjoyment of Exercise in Girls at Risk for PCOS.

Children (Basel, Switzerland)

King AK, McGill-Meeks K, Beller JP, Burt Solorzano CM.
PMID: 31500180
Children (Basel). 2019 Sep 06;6(9). doi: 10.3390/children6090099.

Weight loss can reduce the hyperandrogenemia associated with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in peripubertal girls. Yet, adolescent girls have the lowest rates of physical activity and enjoyment of exercise. We created a dance-based support group (Go Girls!) to entice...

Considerations for Studying Sex as a Biological Variable in Spinal Cord Injury.

Frontiers in neurology

Stewart AN, MacLean SM, Stromberg AJ, Whelan JP, Bailey WM, Gensel JC, Wilson ME.
PMID: 32849242
Front Neurol. 2020 Aug 05;11:802. doi: 10.3389/fneur.2020.00802. eCollection 2020.

In response to NIH initiatives to investigate sex as a biological variable in preclinical animal studies, researchers have increased their focus on male and female differences in neurotrauma. Inclusion of both sexes when modeling neurotrauma is leading to the...

Alterations in Gut Microbiota Do Not Play a Causal Role in Diet-independent Weight Gain Caused by Ovariectomy.

Journal of the Endocrine Society

Sau L, Olmstead CM, Cui LJ, Chen A, Shah RS, Kelley ST, Thackray VG.
PMID: 33324864
J Endocr Soc. 2020 Nov 05;5(1):bvaa173. doi: 10.1210/jendso/bvaa173. eCollection 2021 Jan 01.

Acute estrogen deficiency in women can occur due to many conditions including hyperprolactinemia, chemotherapy, GnRH agonist treatment, and removal of hormone replacement therapy. Ovariectomized (OVX) rodent models, often combined with a high-fat diet (HFD), have been used to investigate...

Inhibiting Kiss1 Neurons With Kappa Opioid Receptor Agonists to Treat Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Vasomotor Symptoms.

The Journal of clinical endocrinology and metabolism

McCarthy EA, Dischino D, Maguire C, Leon S, Talbi R, Cheung E, Schteingart CD, Rivière PJM, Reed SD, Steiner RA, Navarro VM.
PMID: 34387319
J Clin Endocrinol Metab. 2022 Jan 01;107(1):e328-e347. doi: 10.1210/clinem/dgab602.

CONTEXT: Recent evidence suggests that vasomotor symptoms (VMS) or hot flashes in the postmenopausal reproductive state and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in the premenopausal reproductive state emanate from the hyperactivity of Kiss1 neurons in the hypothalamic infundibular/arcuate nucleus (KNDy...

Aging and CNS Myeloid Cell Depletion Attenuate Breast Cancer Brain Metastasis.

Clinical cancer research : an official journal of the American Association for Cancer Research

Wu AML, Gossa S, Samala R, Chung MA, Gril B, Yang HH, Thorsheim HR, Tran AD, Wei D, Taner E, Isanogle K, Yang Y, Dolan EL, Robinson C, Difilippantonio S, Lee MP, Khan I, Smith QR, McGavern DB, Wakefield LM, Steeg PS.
PMID: 34083229
Clin Cancer Res. 2021 Aug 01;27(15):4422-4434. doi: 10.1158/1078-0432.CCR-21-1549. Epub 2021 Jun 03.

PURPOSE: Breast cancer diagnosed in young patients is often aggressive. Because primary breast tumors from young and older patients have similar mutational patterns, we hypothesized that the young host microenvironment promotes more aggressive metastatic disease.EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: Triple-negative or luminal...

Effects of spaceflight aboard the International Space Station on mouse estrous cycle and ovarian gene expression.

NPJ microgravity

Hong X, Ratri A, Choi SY, Tash JS, Ronca AE, Alwood JS, Christenson LK.
PMID: 33712627
NPJ Microgravity. 2021 Mar 12;7(1):11. doi: 10.1038/s41526-021-00139-7.

Ovarian steroids dramatically impact normal homeostatic and metabolic processes of most tissues within the body, including muscle, bone, neural, immune, cardiovascular, and reproductive systems. Determining the effects of spaceflight on the ovary and estrous cycle is, therefore, critical to...

Deletion of Gremlin-2 alters estrous cyclicity and disrupts female fertility in mice†.

Biology of reproduction

Rydze RT, Patton BK, Briley SM, Salazar Torralba H, Gipson G, James R, Rajkovic A, Thompson T, Pangas SA.
PMID: 34333627
Biol Reprod. 2021 Nov 15;105(5):1205-1220. doi: 10.1093/biolre/ioab148.

Members of the differential screening-selected gene aberrative in neuroblastoma (DAN) protein family are developmentally conserved extracellular binding proteins that antagonize bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling. This protein family includes the Gremlin proteins, GREM1 and GREM2, which have key functions...

Progesterone Receptors in AVPV Kisspeptin Neurons Are Sufficient for Positive Feedback Induction of the LH Surge.

Endocrinology

Mohr MA, Esparza LA, Steffen P, Micevych PE, Kauffman AS.
PMID: 34379733
Endocrinology. 2021 Nov 01;162(11). doi: 10.1210/endocr/bqab161.

Kisspeptin, encoded by Kiss1, stimulates gonadotropin-releasing hormone neurons to govern reproduction. In female rodents, estrogen-sensitive kisspeptin neurons in the rostral anteroventral periventricular (AVPV) hypothalamus are thought to mediate estradiol (E2)-induced positive feedback induction of the preovulatory luteinizing hormone (LH)...

Prenatal exposure to an environmentally relevant phthalate mixture alters ovarian steroidogenesis and folliculogenesis in the F1 generation of adult female mice.

Reproductive toxicology (Elmsford, N.Y.)

Reprod Toxicol. 2021 Dec;106:25-31. doi: 10.1016/j.reprotox.2021.09.013. Epub 2021 Sep 28.

Phthalates are a family of chemicals that can be found in plastic and personal care products used by consumers every day and they are known endocrine disrupting chemicals that can disrupt female reproduction. In previous studies, an environmentally relevant...

PMID: 34905605
Endocrinology. 2022 Jan 01;163(1). doi: 10.1210/endocr/bqab238.

The Hippo transcriptional coactivators YAP and TAZ exert critical roles in morphogenesis, organ size determination and tumorigenesis in many tissues. Although Hippo kinase cascade activity was recently reported in the anterior pituitary gland in mice, the role of the...
