BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The aim of this study was to determine if circulating levels of pituitary hormones are altered by stroke and, if so, whether these alterations offer insight into specific neurochemical pathways in the region of the central nervous system injury. METHODS Twenty-eight consecutive postmenopausal women undergoing computed tomographic imaging of the brain for evaluation of c...

Differential display (DD) PCR (Liang and Pardee, 1992) is a recently described technique to identify genes whose expression has changed during a biological process. We used this method to detect genes thyroid stimulating hormone-dependently regulated in a rat thyroid cell line, because thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) is the most important hormone for cell proliferation and differentiation inc...

OBJECTIVE This study evaluated the use of Corifollitropin alfa in patients with previous poor response to recombinant follicle stimulating hormone in long-term protocols using gonadotropin-releasing hormone. METHODS Twenty-seven poor responders to previous treatment with the long term protocol using the recombinant follicle stimulating hormone (Group 1) were selected and then submitted to a s...

Background & Objective:  Molybdenum trioxide nanoparticles (MoO3 NPs) have widespread applications in industries. However, the toxic and non-toxic effects of MoO3 NPs have not been fully investigated yet. In this study, effects of MoO3 NPs on ovary function of female rats were studied.  Materials & Methods:  In this study, 21 female rats were randomly divided into three groups (n=7): the first...

BACKGROUND It has been hypothesized that alteration of hormone systems is involved in the carcinogenesis of acrylamide. The aim of the present study was to examine the cross-sectional associations between dietary acrylamide intake and sex hormone levels in premenopausal Japanese women. METHODS Study subjects were 393 women who had regular menstrual cycles less than 40 days long. Acrylamide in...

the precise pharmacological of chronic use of opium on serum level of gonadotropins and male sex hormones are not studied extensively.this study was performed to investigate the changes in these parameters is opium addicted men.the blood samples of 46 opium addicts and 39 normal men were taken ,and the testosterone ,LH and FSH levels in serum were measured by radioimmunoassay (RID) technique us...

ing hormone and follicle stimulating hormone with a low oestradiol concentration confirm menopausal status. In peri­ menopause, some menstrual bleeding may still be occurring, and luteinising hormone, follicle stimulating hormone and oestradiol may be normal, or only follicle stimulating hor­ mone may be raised. If there is any doubt about perimeno­ pausal status, blood tests should be repeated...

In the first international congress on traditional medicine and materia medica, an article with the title of "Matching the principles and fundamentals of traditional medicine with findings and subjects in contemporary modern medicine" was presented and publication of a book in this matter was promised. The book was published with the title of “New insight in etiology, prevention and treatment o...

In the study, seasonal changes in follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), lutein (LH), total testosterone (TTH), and Free Testosterone Hormone (FTH) of Saanen goats were investigated. order to determine levels between February 2019 December 2019, blood samples taken from bucks (n=6) twice a week during entire trial. FSH level started decrease relatively after August lowest value was determined as 1...
