The influence of estradiol-17 beta on corticosteroids production and cell proliferation were studied in the cultured pig adrenocortical cells. Estradiol-17 beta considerably increased steroidogenesis, but inhibited cell proliferation. It is speculated, that cAMP mediated estradiol-17 beta effects in the adrenal cells.

Background: Tris (2-chloroethyl) phosphate (TCEP), a widely used flame retardant, is widespread in the environment and potentially harmful to organisms. However, the specific mechanisms of TCEP-induced neurological and reproductive toxicity in fish are largely unknown. Turbot (Scophthalmus maximus) is cultivated on a large scale, and the emergence of pollutants with endocrine disrupting effects seriously affects its economic benefits.

Development of a disease diagnostic model to predict the occurrence of central precocious puberty of female.

J Pediatr Endocrinol Metab

January 2025

Department of Endocrinology, Genetics and Metabolism, Beijing Children's Hospital, Capital Medical University, National Center for Children's Health, Beijing, China.

Objectives: To develop a clinical model for predicting the occurrence of Central Precocious Puberty based on the breast development outcomes in chinese girls.

Methods: This is a retrospective study, which included a total of 1,001 girls aged 6-9 years old who visited the outpatient clinic of Beijing Children's Hospital from January 2017 to October 2022 for "breast development". Participants were categorized into pubertal development (PD) cohort and simple premature breast development (PT) according to the criteria, and information was collected and tested for relevant indicators.

Age- and Sex-Specific Regulation of Serine Racemase in the Retina of an Alzheimer's Disease Mouse.

Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci

January 2025

State Key Laboratory of Ophthalmology, Optometry, and Visual Science, Eye Hospital, Wenzhou Medical University, Wenzhou, China.

Purpose: Changes associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD) may have measurable effects on the retina, which may facilitate early detection due to the eye's accessibility. Retinal pathology and the regulation of serine racemase (SR) were investigated in the retinas of APP(SW)/PS1(∆E9) mice.

Methods: SR in the retinas and the content of D-serine in the aqueous humor were analyzed.

The current study investigated the effect of a single administration of human chorionic gonadotropin hormone (hCG) and its nanoparticles (NPs) on testicular hemodynamics using Doppler ultrasonography, testicular volume, testicular echotexture (PIX), and circulating testosterone and nitric oxide (NO) in pubescent goat bucks during summer months. Fifteen Baladi goats were divided into three groups (5 in each) and subjected to a single intramuscular administration of one ml of physiological saline ( control group), one ml containing 500 IU of hCG (hCG group) or one ml containing 125 IU of hCG NPs (hCG NPs group). Testicular hemodynamics assessment was done just before administration (0 h), and at 2, 4, 6, 24, and daily till 7 days after administration.
