Influence of sex in the development of liver diseases.

The liver is a sexually dimorphic organ. Sex differences in prevalence, progression, prognosis and treatment do prevail in most liver diseases, and the mechanism of how liver diseases act differently among male versus female patients have not been fully elucidated. Biological sex differences in normal physiology and disease arise principally from sex hormones and/or sex chromosomes.

Objective: Research and tools are necessary for understanding prostate cancer biology. 3D cell culture models have been created to overcome the limitations of animal models and 2D cell culture. The amniotic membrane (AM), a natural biomaterial, emerges as an ideal scaffold for 3D cultures due to its accessibility and incorporation of the extracellular matrix (ECM) in both solid and liquid forms.

Our previous studies revealed a mating attractant or possibly a pheromone released from molting reproductive mature female prawns, Macrobrachium rosenbergii, stimulates the expression of insulin-like androgenic gland hormones in a co-culture system. The released attractant is perceived by olfactory receptors with setae located on the short lateral antennules (slAn), which connect to the olfactory neuropil in the central nervous system (CNS) of male prawns. This neural signaling propagating through the CNS is mediated by at least four neuropeptides, namely neuropeptide F (NPF), short NPF (sNPF), tachykinin (TK), and allatostatin-A (ATS-A) whose transcripts have been detected in the present study.

Dihydrotestosterone (DHT), an androgen derivate, is known to be a key factor involved in androgenetic alopecia. DHT suppresses the growth of outer root sheath cells and induces apoptosis of hair keratinocytes, thereby causing hair follicle miniaturization and hair regrowth inhibition. Forsythoside A, a natural substance derived from Forsythia suspensa, has been shown to reduce DHT-induced apoptosis in human hair cells and suppress hair regrowth inhibition induced by DHT in mice.

Testosterone, an essential sex steroid hormone, influences brain health by impacting neurophysiology and neuropathology throughout the lifespan in both genders. However, human research in this area is limited, particularly in women. This study examines the associations between testosterone levels, gray matter volume (GMV) and cerebral blood flow (CBF) in midlife individuals at risk for Alzheimer's disease (AD), according to sex and menopausal status.
