DEHP is a prevalent phthalate with wide industrial applications and well-documented endocrine-disrupting effects, including the potential disruption of AR signaling in different tissues. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of gestational and lactational exposure to environmentally relevant DEHP concentrations on AR expression and subcellular localization in the pituitary gland, the master endocrine organ, with a focus on gonadotroph cells by in vivo and in vitro approaches. After DEHP exposure during gestation and lactation, a sex-specific modulation was detected in AR-positive pituitary cells and AR protein expression as assessed through flow cytometry and western blot.

Background: Androgenic anabolic steroids (AASs) are synthetic drugs structurally related to testosterone, with the ability to bind to androgen receptors. Their uncontrolled use by professional and recreational sportspeople is a widespread problem. AAS abuse is correlated with severe damage to the cardiovascular system, including changes in homeostasis and coagulation disorders.

We previously reported that mediated the improvement in body composition in testosterone (T)-treated hypogonadal men by shifting adipogenesis to myogenesis. Previous preclinical studies suggest that regulates , an important osteoblastic transcription factor, expression and activity. However, the changes in , and other genes/proteins involved in osteoblastogenesis with T therapy in hypogonadal men are unexplored.

Transient Receptor Potential Melastatin 8 (TRPM8) is a non-selective, Ca-permeable cation channel involved in thermoregulation and other physiological processes, such as basal tear secretion, cell differentiation, and insulin homeostasis. The activation and deactivation of TRPM8 occur through genetic modifications, channel interactions, and signaling cascades. Recent evidence suggests a significant role of TRPM8 in the hypothalamus and amygdala related to pain sensation and sexual behavior.
