Male Sex is Associated with a Reduced Alveolar Epithelial Sodium Transport
Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) is the most frequent pulmonary complication in preterm infants. RDS incidence differs between genders, which has been called the male disadvantage. Besides maturation of the surfactant system, Na+ transport driven alveolar fluid clearance is crucial for the prevention of RDS. Na+ transport is mediated by the epithelial Na+ channel (ENaC) and the Na,K-ATPase, ...
متن کاملSex Steroids Modulate Fish Immune Response
For some time behavioural and ecological studies have suggested that sex steroid hormones regulate several immune processes in fish. For example, the immunocompetence handicap hypothesis relates the heritability of parasite resistance with secondary sexual ornaments, which are determined and maintained by androgens. Such ornaments are probably a good indicator to potential mates of genetic resi...
متن کاملModulation of sodium transport in fetal alveolar epithelial cells by oxygen and corticosterone.
Regulation of active Na(+) transport across fetal distal lung epithelial cells (FDLE) by corticosterone (CST), corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH), and oxygen tension may be crucial for postnatal adaptation. FDLE isolated from 19-day rat fetuses (term: 22 days) were grown on permeable supports to confluent monolayers (duration 3 days) in 2.5, 5, 12, or 20% O(2) with 5% CO(2)-balance N(2) and ...
متن کاملThe Effects of Female Sex Steroids on Gastric Secretory Responses of Rat Following Traumatic Brain Injury
Objective(s) Gastric ulceration is induced by various forms of stress like surgery, ischemia and trauma. The female sex has more resistance to stress and the gastrointestinal lesions happen fewer than male sex. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the role of estradiol and progesterone on the gastric acid and pepsin levels following traumatic brain injury (TBI) induction. Materials and M...
