Significance of microRNA targeted estrogen receptor in male fertility
Objective(s): Estrogen receptor-alpha (ERα) mediates estrogen action in regulation of different levels of the hypothalamic-pituitary-testis axis. It has a key role in spermatogenesis. Estrogen receptor alpha knock-out (ER koα) male mice were infertile and severe impairment in spermatogenesis and seminiferous tubules was observed. Recently, it has been reported that microRNA (miRNA) mir-100 and ...
متن کاملFixation time does not affect the expression of estrogen receptor.
The purpose of this pilot study was to determine the impact of the length of fixation in 10% buffered formalin on the expression of estrogen receptor by immunohistochemical analysis. We studied tissue samples from 10 invasive breast cancer cases after fixation for 1, 3, 6, and 9 to 10 hours. The tissue was processed immediately after fixation, resembling routine practice. Then the 40 blocks wer...
متن کاملGhrelin Receptor Deficiency does not Affect Diet-Induced Atherosclerosis in Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptor-Null Mice
OBJECTIVE Ghrelin, a stomach-derived, secreted peptide, and its receptor (growth hormone secretagogue receptor, GHSR) are known to modulate food intake and energy homeostasis. The ghrelin system is also expressed broadly in cardiovascular tissues. Since ghrelin has been associated with anti-inflammatory and anti-atherogenic properties, but is also well known to promote obesity and impair glucos...
متن کاملChordal cutting does not adversely affect left ventricle contractile function.
BACKGROUND Severing a limited number of second-order chordae to the anterior leaflet can improve ischemic mitral regurgitation (MR). Some concerns have been raised regarding possible influence on regional and global left ventricle (LV) function. We evaluated changes in cardiac function in 5 normal sheep with cutting of pre-instrumented chords in the beating heart to maintain constant load. ME...
متن کاملLoss of all 3 Extended Synaptotagmins does not affect normal mouse development, viability or fertility
The extended synaptotagmins, E-Syt1, 2 and 3, are multiple C2 domain membrane proteins that are tethered to the endoplasmic reticulum and interact in a calcium dependent manner with plasma membrane phospholipids to form endoplasmic reticulum - plasma membrane junctions. These junctions have been implicated in the exchange of phospholipids between the 2 organelles. The E-Syts have further been i...
