Pituitary gonadotrope cells are essential for the endocrine regulation of reproduction in vertebrates. These cells emerge early during embryogenesis, colonize the pituitary glands and organize in tridimensional networks, which are believed to be crucial to ensure proper regulation of fertility. However, the molecular mechanisms regulating the organization of gonadotrope cell population during embryogenesis remain poorly understood.

Granulosa cell tumor (GCT) is a form of ovarian tumor characterized by its tendency to recur years after surgical ablation. Little is known about the mechanisms involved in GCT development and progression. GCTs can produce estradiol (E2), but whether this hormone could play a role in this cancer through its nuclear receptors, i.

AROMATASE is encoded by the CYP19A1 gene and is the cytochrome enzyme responsible for estrogen synthesis in vertebrates. In most mammals, a peak of CYP19A1 gene expression occurs in the fetal XX gonad when sexual differentiation is initiated. To elucidate the role of this peak, we produced 3 lines of TALEN genetically edited CYP19A1 knockout (KO) rabbits that were devoid of any estradiol production.

Background: Phenotypes and endotypes predicting optimal response to bronchial thermoplasty (BT) in patients with severe asthma remain elusive.

Objective: Our aim was to compare the clinical characteristics and hallmarks of airway inflammation and remodeling before and after BT in responder and partial responder patients with severe asthma refractory to oral steroids and to omalizumab.

Methods: In all, 23 patients with severe refractory asthma were divided into BT responders (n = 15) and BT partial responders (n = 8), according to the decrease in asthma exacerbations at 12 months after BT.
