Article Synopsis
  • Activated carbon fibers (ACFs) were synthesized from natural cotton fibers in an Ar atmosphere, activated with KOH, and characterized using various advanced techniques to evaluate their structure and performance.
  • The resulting ACFs exhibited a high surface area (673 to 1597 m²/g) and significant pore volume (0.33 to 0.79 cm³/g), which enhanced their ability to capture carbon dioxide (CO) effectively at different temperatures and pressures.
  • This research highlights the importance of micropore volume in maximizing CO capture and electrochemical capacitance, providing valuable insights for developing efficient porous carbon materials.

Objective: We examined how the sex steroids influence the synthesis of gonadotropins.

Materials And Methods: The effects of sex steroids estradiol (E2), progesterone (P4), and dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in pituitary gonadotroph cell model (LβT2 cells) in vitro and ovary-intact rats in vivo were examined. The effects of sex steroids on Kiss1 gene expression in the hypothalamus were also examined in ovary-intact rats.

Ovariectomy (OVX) causes a depletion of circulating estradiol (E2) and influences hypothalamic kisspeptin neurons, which govern gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) release and ultimately gonadotropin secretion. In this study, we examined the changes induced by OVX on the anterior pituitary gland in female rats. OVX significantly increased the mRNA expression of gonadotropin , luteinizing hormone (LH) , and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) subunits within the pituitary gland compared with control (sham-operated) rats, and this was completely suppressed by E2 supplementation.

mHypoA-55 cells are kisspeptin-expressing neuronal cells originating from the arcuate nucleus of the mouse hypothalamus. These cells are called KNDy neurons because they co-express kisspeptin, neurokinin B, and dynorphin A. In addition, they express gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH).

Background: Polymorphisms in the cytochrome P450 2C19 (CYP2C19) gene have been reported to be associated with coronary heart disease (CHD), but the results were not consistently analyzed among different patient groups. To derive a more precise estimation of these associations, we will conduct a meta-analysis to investigate the polymorphisms of CYP2C19 in all published studies.

Methods: Electronic databases (Google Scholar, ISI Web of Science, Pubmed, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang, and China Biological Medicine) will be used to search clinical case-control or cohort studies about CYP2C19 polymorphism and CHD published until November 2020.
