Sexual dimorphism in airway responsiveness to sex hormones in rabbits.
TO THE EDITOR: Recently, Massaro and Massaro (4) demonstrated a sexual dimorphism of alveolar size in male and female adult rats and mice and that estrogen receptor (ER)and ERare required for this sexual dimorphism. Our group recently showed that a similar phenomenon of sexual dimorphism presents in airway responsiveness to sex hormones in rabbits. We studied the direct effect of sex hormones (...
متن کاملSex Hormones and Immune Dimorphism
The functioning of the immune system of the body is regulated by many factors. The abnormal regulation of the immune system may result in some pathological conditions. Sex hormones of reproductive system are one of the major factors that regulate immune system due to the presence of hormone receptors on immune cells. The interaction of sex hormones and immune cells through the receptors on thes...
متن کاملTranscriptomic Analyses of Sexual Dimorphism of the Zebrafish Liver and the Effect of Sex Hormones
The liver is one of the most sex-dimorphic organs in both oviparous and viviparous animals. In order to understand the molecular basis of the difference between male and female livers, high-throughput RNA-SAGE (serial analysis of gene expression) sequencing was performed for zebrafish livers of both sexes and their transcriptomes were compared. Both sexes had abundantly expressed genes involved...
متن کاملP-137: Sex Hormones Abnormalities and Female Sexual Dysfunction in Multiple Sclerosis Patients
Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common cause of progressive neurological disability in young adults who may be sexually active. MS patients experience high levels of sexual dysfunction with hypoactive sexual behavior and abnormalities in hypothalamus- pituitary-gonad (HPG) axis. In the present study, we aimed to evaluate the correlation between serum levels of sex hormones durin...
متن کاملSex hormones and ApoE4: beyond steroids.
The accompanying paper by Burkhardt and colleagues [2] highlights the complexity of the estrogen/Alzheimer’s disease (AD) connection. One possible explanation of these interesting results is that there is a link between particular estrogen receptor polymorphisms and apolipoprotein E (ApoE) polymorphisms. While there are conflicting reports in the literature, several studies have suggested an in...
