research Defining compartmentalized stem cell populations with distinct cell division dynamics in the ocular surface epithelium
Stem cells in the eye have different roles and behaviors, helping maintain and repair the eye's surface.
research Ovarian sex steroid receptors and sex hormones in androgenized rats
High doses of nandrolone decanoate disrupt ovarian hormones and receptors in rats, with recovery only at lower doses and longer recovery times.
research Catamenial-like seizure exacerbation in mice with targeted ablation of extrasynaptic δGABA-a receptors in the brain
Removing certain brain receptors in mice worsens seizure severity and response to treatment during hormone withdrawal.
research Null Mutation of 5α-Reductase Type I Gene Alters Ethanol Consumption Patterns in a Sex-Dependent Manner
research A comment on the post-finasteride syndrome
The true incidence of post-Finasteride syndrome is unclear, and more research is needed.
research Corticosterone enhances the potency of ethanol against hippocampal long-term potentiation via local neurosteroid synthesis

research Witnessed trauma exposure induces fear in mice through a reduction in endogenous neurosteroid synthesis
Reduced neurosteroid production increases fear in mice, suggesting potential PTSD treatments.
research Progesterone Promotes Anti-Anxiety/Depressant-like Behavior and Trophic Actions of BDNF in the Hippocampus of Female Nuclear Progesterone Receptor, but Not 5α-Reductase, Knockout Mice
Progesterone reduces anxiety and depression in female mice by increasing BDNF in the brain, needing 5α-reduction and estradiol.
research Stem Cells in Regenerative Medicine: A Journey from Adult Stem Cells to Induced Pluripotent Cells
Induced pluripotent stem cells are a major breakthrough in regenerative medicine.
research Effects of the prenatal and postnatal nurturing environment on the phenotype and gut microbiota of mice with polycystic ovary syndrome induced by prenatal androgen exposure: a cross-fostering study
Prenatal and postnatal environments both affect PCOS development and gut microbiota in mice.
research Pregnenolone for the treatment of L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia in Parkinson's disease
Pregnenolone might help manage movement issues caused by Parkinson's disease treatment without reducing the medicine's effectiveness.
research Three-Dimensional Analysis of Sex- and Gonadal Status- Dependent Microglial Activation in a Mouse Model of Parkinson’s Disease
Sex and sex hormones can affect brain inflammation in Parkinson's disease, with male mice being more affected and female mice showing a protective effect.
