Sex-Based Differences in Cardiometabolic Biomarkers.
BACKGROUND Few data are available comparing cardiovascular disease (CVD) biomarker profiles between women and men in the general population. We analyzed sex-based differences in multiple biomarkers reflecting distinct pathophysiological pathways, accounting for differences between women and men in CVD risk factors, body composition, and cardiac morphology. METHODS A cross-sectional analysis w...
متن کاملOsteoprotegerin in Cardiometabolic Disorders
Osteoprotegerin (OPG), a glycoprotein traditionally implicated in bone remodelling, has been recently related to cardiovascular disease (CVD). Human studies show a positive relationship between circulating OPG, vascular damage, and CVD, and as such OPG has emerged as a potential biomarker for CVD. This review focuses on the relationship between circulating OPG and different endocrine cardiometa...
متن کاملSex differences in depression and anxiety disorders: potential biological determinants.
The phenomenon of higher rates of affective disorders in women illustrates many of the difficulties as well as promises of translating preclinical models to human disorders. Abnormalities in the regulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary adrenal axis and the sympathoadrenomedullary system have been identified in depression and anxiety disorders, and these disorders are clearly precipitated and ex...
متن کاملSex and Gender Differences in Central Nervous System-Related Disorders
There are important sex differences in the brain that seem to arise from biology as well as psychosocial influences. Sex differences in several aspects of human behavior and cognition have been reported. Gonadal sex steroids or genes found on sex chromosomes influence sex differences in neuroanatomy, neurochemistry and neuronal structure, and connectivity. There has been some resistance to acce...
متن کاملSex differences in the sterol and nonsterol metabolism of mevalonate.
Previous studies from this laboratory have demonstrated that the kidneys represent the major tissue site for the metabolism of circulating mevalonic acid by both the sterol and nonsterol pathways of mevalonate utilization. These earlier conclusions were based solely on observations in male rats; therefore, the present studies were carried out in both male and female rats to evaluate possible se...
