    Vitamin D plays role in healthy Testes function.  This signaling occurs through genomic and non-genomic signaling pathways.  Testosterone production is influenced, sperm motility and spermatogenesis is influenced.

    study finds restoration of HPA in men with low T.  This was performed via clomid therapy at 25 to 50 mg daily for 4 months.  Increase in pulsatile LH, increase in serum Testosterone levels, and increase in sexual function was found.  Clomid restores HPA function that is suppressed from estrogen inhibition.  In this case, clomid is function as an estrogen antagonist.

    I really don't understand the purpose of this study.  Why give "healthy" men with normal lipids atorvastatin???  The study found a reduction in TC and LDL, but also a reduction in sperm number, decreased sperm vitality, increased sperm morphology, decreased prostatic acid pho sphatases, epididymal neutral alpha-glucosidase and L-carnitine levels resulted.

Penis enlargement due to where? Cause And Treatment - 1 views

  •  
    The body of the white pimples is a common feature of boys entering puberty. Understanding their nature will help you no longer worry. White pimples on the penis and pores, squeezing out with a white core. Do these acne affect fertility? This top concern in many young people will be answered right after.

Communication between genomic and non-genomic signaling events coordinate steroid hormo... - 0 views

  • steroid hormones typically interact with their cognate receptor in the cytoplasm for AR, glucocorticoid receptor (GR) and PR, but may also bind receptor in the nucleus as appears to often be the case for ERα and ERβ
  • This ligand binding results in a conformational change in the cytoplasmic NRs that leads to the dissociation of HSPs, translocation of the ligand-bound receptor to the nucleus
  • In the nucleus, the ligand-bound receptor dimerizes and then binds to DNA at specific HREs to regulate gene transcription
  • ...25 more annotations...
  • some steroid hormone-induced nuclear events can occur in minutes
  • the genomic effects of steroid hormones take longer, with changes in gene expression occurring on the timescale of hours
  • Classical steroid hormone signaling occurs when hormone binds nuclear receptors (NR) in the cytoplasm, setting off a chain of genomic events that results in, among other changes, dimerization and translocation to the nucleus where the ligand-bound receptor forms a complex with coregulators to modulate gene transcription through direct interactions with a hormone response element (HRE)
  • NRs have been found at the plasma membrane of cells, where they can propagate signal transduction often through kinase pathways
  • Membrane-localized ER, PR and AR have been reported to modulate the activity of MAPK/ERK, phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt), nitric oxide (NO), PKC, calcium flux and increase inositol triphosphate (IP3) levels to promote cell processes including autophagy, proliferation, apoptosis, survival, differentiation, and vasodilation
  • ERα36, a 36kDa truncated form of ERα that lacks the transcriptional activation domains of the full-length protein. Membrane-localized ERα36 can activate pathways including protein kinase C (PKC) and/or mitogen activated protein kinase/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (MAPK/ERK) to promote the progression of various cancers
  • G protein-coupled receptor 30 (GPR30), also referred to as G protein-coupled estrogen receptor (GPER), is a membrane-localized receptor that has been observed to respond to estrogen to activate rapid signaling
  • hormone-responsive G protein coupled receptor is Zip9, which androgens can activate
  • GPRC6A is another G protein-coupled membrane receptor that is responsive to androgen
  • androgen-mediated non-genomic signaling through this GPCR can modulate male fertility, hormone secretion and prostate cancer progression
  • non-NR proteins located at the cell surface can bind to steroid hormones and respond by eliciting rapid signaling events
  • Estrogens have been shown to induce rapid (i.e. seconds) calcium flux via membrane-localized ER (mER)
  • ER-calcium dynamics lead to activation of kinase pathways such as MAPK/ERK which can result in cellular effects like migration and proliferation
  • 17β-estradiol (E2) has been reported to promote angiogenesis through the activation of GPER
  • Membrane NRs may also mediate rapid signaling through crosstalk with growth factor receptors (GFR)
  • A similar crosstalk occurs between the receptor tyrosine kinase insulin-related growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-IR) and ERα. Not only does IGF-IR activate ERα, but inhibition of IGF-IR downregulates estrogen-mediated ERα activity, suggesting that IGF-IR is essential for maximal ERα signaling

      This is a bombshell that shatters the current right brain approach to ER. It completely shatters the concept of eat sugar, whatever you want, with cancer treatment in ER+ or hormonally responsive cancer!
  • Further, ER activates IGF-IR pathways including MAPK
  • GPER is involved in the transactivation of the EGFR independent of classical ER
  • tight interconnection between genomic and non-genomic effects of NRs.
  • non-genomic pathways can also lead to genomic effects
  • androgen-bound AR associates with the kinase Src at the plasma membrane, activating Src which then leads to a signaling cascade through MAPK/ERK
  • However, Src can also increase the expression of AR target genes by the ligand-independent transactivation of AR
  • extranuclear steroid hormone actions can potentially reprogram nuclear NR events
  • estrogen modulated the expression of several genes including endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) via rapid signaling pathways
  • epigenetic changes can then mediate genomic events in uterine tissue and breast cancer cells

What is the Procedure of IVF with Donor Embryos... - 0 views

  •  
    The embryo is the combined form of a matured egg and sperm. It is generally known as the most critical stage of IVF treatment. Despite that, successful embryo implantation only decides the achievement of pregnancy, and when it fails, it obstructs the entire IVF process. It extensively occurs when a couple fails to develop a healthy embryo using their eggs and sperm because of poor health conditions.

When should IVF be done? - 0 views

  •  
    The most generic question that interrupts every couple's mind is when the IVF process should be done. Is it done when one fails to conceive, or is it done when one suffers from secondary infertility.
