Testosterone increases circulating dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate levels in the male rhesus macaque.

Frontiers in endocrinology

Sorwell KG, Kohama SG, Urbanski HF.
PMID: 25009533
Front Endocrinol (Lausanne). 2014 Jun 25;5:101. doi: 10.3389/fendo.2014.00101. eCollection 2014.

The adrenal steroid dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and its sulfate (DHEAS) are two of the most abundant hormones in the human circulation. Furthermore, they are released in a circadian pattern and show a marked age-associated decline. Adult levels of DHEA and...

Farnesol-like endogenous sesquiterpenoids in vertebrates: the probable but overlooked functional "inbrome" anti-aging counterpart of juvenile hormone of insects?.

Frontiers in endocrinology

De Loof A, Marchal E, Rivera-Perez C, Noriega FG, Schoofs L.
PMID: 25610425
Front Endocrinol (Lausanne). 2015 Jan 06;5:222. doi: 10.3389/fendo.2014.00222. eCollection 2014.

Literature on the question whether the juvenile stage of vertebrates is hormonally regulated is scarce. It seems to be intuitively assumed that this stage of development is automated, and does not require any specific hormone(s). Such reasoning mimics the...

Impact of Maternal Melatonin Suppression on Amount and Functionality of Brown Adipose Tissue (BAT) in the Newborn Sheep.

Frontiers in endocrinology

Seron-Ferre M, Reynolds H, Mendez NA, Mondaca M, Valenzuela F, Ebensperger R, Valenzuela GJ, Herrera EA, Llanos AJ, Torres-Farfan C.
PMID: 25610428
Front Endocrinol (Lausanne). 2015 Jan 06;5:232. doi: 10.3389/fendo.2014.00232. eCollection 2014.

In human and sheep newborns, brown adipose tissue (BAT) accrued during fetal development is used for newborn thermogenesis. Here, we explored the role of maternal melatonin during gestation on the amount and functionality of BAT in the neonate. We...

Genes and podocytes - new insights into mechanisms of podocytopathy.

Frontiers in endocrinology

Bierzynska A, Soderquest K, Koziell A.
PMID: 25667580
Front Endocrinol (Lausanne). 2015 Jan 23;5:226. doi: 10.3389/fendo.2014.00226. eCollection 2014.

After decades of primarily morphological study, positional cloning of the NPHS1 gene was the landmark event that established aberrant podocyte genetics as a pivotal cause of malfunction of the glomerular filter. This ended any uncertainty whether genetic mutation plays...

Spherical Oligo-Silicic Acid SOSA Disclosed as Possible Endogenous Digitalis-Like Factor.

Frontiers in endocrinology

Kerek F, Voicu VA.
PMID: 25667581
Front Endocrinol (Lausanne). 2015 Jan 23;5:233. doi: 10.3389/fendo.2014.00233. eCollection 2014.

The Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase is a membrane ion-transporter protein, specifically inhibited by digitalis glycosides used in cardiac therapy. The existence in mammals of some endogenous digitalis-like factors (EDLFs) as presumed ATPase ligands is generally accepted. But the chemical structure of these...

O-GlcNAcylation and Inflammation: A Vast Territory to Explore.

Frontiers in endocrinology

Baudoin L, Issad T.
PMID: 25620956
Front Endocrinol (Lausanne). 2015 Jan 09;5:235. doi: 10.3389/fendo.2014.00235. eCollection 2014.

O-GlcNAcylation is a reversible post-translational modification that regulates the activities of cytosolic and nuclear proteins according to glucose availability. This modification appears to participate in several hyperglycemia-associated complications. An important feature of metabolic diseases such as diabetes and obesity...

Adrenocortical zonation, renewal, and remodeling.

Frontiers in endocrinology

Pihlajoki M, Dörner J, Cochran RS, Heikinheimo M, Wilson DB.
PMID: 25798129
Front Endocrinol (Lausanne). 2015 Mar 05;6:27. doi: 10.3389/fendo.2015.00027. eCollection 2015.

The adrenal cortex is divided into concentric zones. In humans the major cortical zones are the zona glomerulosa, zona fasciculata, and zona reticularis. The adrenal cortex is a dynamic organ in which senescent cells are replaced by newly differentiated...

High-Fat Feeding Does Not Disrupt Daily Rhythms in Female Mice because of Protection by Ovarian Hormones.

Frontiers in endocrinology

Palmisano BT, Stafford JM, Pendergast JS.
PMID: 28352249
Front Endocrinol (Lausanne). 2017 Mar 14;8:44. doi: 10.3389/fendo.2017.00044. eCollection 2017.

Obesity in women is increased by the loss of circulating estrogen after menopause. Shift work, which disrupts circadian rhythms, also increases the risk for obesity. It is not known whether ovarian hormones interact with the circadian system to protect...

Effects of Neuroendocrine CB1 Activity on Adult Leydig Cells.

Frontiers in endocrinology

Cobellis G, Meccariello R, Chianese R, Chioccarelli T, Fasano S, Pierantoni R.
PMID: 27375550

Endocannabinoids control male reproduction acting at central and local level via cannabinoid receptors. The cannabinoid receptor CB1 has been characterized in the testis, in somatic and germ cells of mammalian and non-mammalian animal models, and its activity related to...

Molecular Modeling of Structures and Interaction of Human Corticotropin-Releasing Factor (CRF) Binding Protein and CRF Type-2 Receptor.
