Hormonal control of spermatogenesis.

Trends in endocrinology and metabolism: TEM

McLachlan RI, Wreford NG, Robertson DM, de Kretser DM.
PMID: 18406689
Trends Endocrinol Metab. 1995 Apr;6(3):95-101. doi: 10.1016/1043-2760(94)00215-p.

FSH and testosterone (T) secretion are essential for the successful completion of spermatogenesis. Because there are no receptors for FSH or testosterone on germ cells, there are intermediate steps in this action, the nature of which are unknown. However,...

The Role of Activin A and B and the Benefit of Follistatin Treatment in Renal Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in Mice.

Transplantation direct

Fang DY, Lu B, Hayward S, de Kretser DM, Cowan PJ, Dwyer KM.
PMID: 27830181
Transplant Direct. 2016 Jun 06;2(7):e87. doi: 10.1097/TXD.0000000000000601. eCollection 2016 Jul.

BACKGROUND: Activins, members of the TGF-β superfamily, are key drivers of inflammation and are thought to play a significant role in ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), a process inherent to renal transplantation that negatively impacts early and late allograft function. Follistatin...

Activin Biology After Lung Transplantation.

Transplantation direct

Westall GP, Snell GI, Loskot M, Levvey B, O'Hehir R, Hedger MP, de Kretser DM.
PMID: 28620643
Transplant Direct. 2017 May 11;3(6):e159. doi: 10.1097/TXD.0000000000000676. eCollection 2017 Jun.

BACKGROUND: Activins A and B, members of the TGF-β superfamily, are produced as part of the physiological response to tissue damage and the resulting proinflammatory response. Given that lung allograft reperfusion results in an inflammatory response, it is likely...

Rethinking ME/CFS Diagnostic Reference Intervals via Machine Learning, and the Utility of Activin B for Defining Symptom Severity.

Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland)

Lidbury BA, Kita B, Richardson AM, Lewis DP, Privitera E, Hayward S, de Kretser D, Hedger M.
PMID: 31331036
Diagnostics (Basel). 2019 Jul 19;9(3). doi: 10.3390/diagnostics9030079.

Biomarker discovery applied to myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS), a disabling disease of inconclusive aetiology, has identified several cytokines to potentially fulfil a role as a quantitative blood/serum marker for laboratory diagnosis, with activin B a recent addition. We...

Experimental Cryptorchidism Causes Chronic Inflammation and a Progressive Decline in Sertoli Cell and Leydig Cell Function in the Adult Rat Testis.

Reproductive sciences (Thousand Oaks, Calif.)

Aldahhan RA, Stanton PG, Ludlow H, de Kretser DM, Hedger MP.
PMID: 34008157
Reprod Sci. 2021 Oct;28(10):2916-2928. doi: 10.1007/s43032-021-00616-0. Epub 2021 May 18.

Cryptorchidism causes spermatogenic failure and reduced serum androgen levels, as well as testicular oedema and fibrosis, which are hallmarks of inflammation. However, the role of inflammation and the effects of cryptorchidism on Sertoli cell and Leydig cell function at...

Potential treatment of keloid pathogenesis with follistatin 288 by blocking the activin molecular pathway.

Experimental dermatology

Ham S, Harrison C, de Kretser D, Wallace EM, Southwick G, Temple-Smith P.
PMID: 33119185
Exp Dermatol. 2021 Mar;30(3):402-408. doi: 10.1111/exd.14223. Epub 2020 Nov 16.

Keloids are benign tumours caused by abnormal wound healing driven by increased expression of cytokines, including activin A. This study compared effects of activins on normal and keloid-derived human dermal fibroblasts and investigated a novel treatment for keloids using...

Follistatin and the Breast Implant Capsule.

Plastic and reconstructive surgery. Global open

Frenkiel BA, Temple-Smith P, de Kretser D, Southwick GJ.
PMID: 28458972
Plast Reconstr Surg Glob Open. 2017 Mar 01;5(3):e1258. doi: 10.1097/GOX.0000000000001258. eCollection 2017 Mar.

BACKGROUND: Breast capsular contracture remains an elusive problem faced by plastic surgeons and is the leading long-term complication after breast implantation. Follistatin (Fst) is a protein with known anti-inflammatory and antifibrotic properties and has the potential to limit the...
