Estrogen is an essential hormone for the development and functional activities of reproductive organs. Recent studies showed that estrogen signaling is also an important regulator of lipid and glucose metabolism in a number of tissues, but the molecular mechanism is not fully understood. We report here that estrogen is a stimulator of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) synthesis in the skeletal muscle.

Studies provide notable evidence that oxidative stress (OS) mediated reactive oxygen species (ROS) disturb reproductive health. We have shown in our previous publication that exposure of Di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), induces OS mediated ROS generation which inhibits steroid synthesis. In the present study, we demonstrated the ameliorative/protective effects of one of the steroidal saponins, i.

The management of vision-threatening retinal diseases remains challenging due to the lack of an effective drug delivery system. Encapsulated cell therapy (ECT) offers a promising approach for the continuous delivery of therapeutic agents without the need for immunosuppressants. In this context, an injectable and terminable collagen-alginate composite (CAC) ECT gel, designed with a Tet-on pro-caspase-8 system, was developed as a safe intraocular drug delivery platform for the sustained release of glial-cell-line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) to treat retinal degenerative diseases.
