G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the most abundant class of proteins in the cell body. Such receptors are of major interest as potential therapeutic targets. Downscaling and parallelization of bioanalytics opens novel routes to rapidly screen and id ...
Female fertility requires normal ovarian follicular growth and ovulation. The nuclear receptor liver receptor homolog 1 has been implicated in processes as diverse as bile acid metabolism, steroidogenesis, and cell proliferation. In the ovary, Lrh1 is expr ...
The glucocorticoid-induced leucine zipper (Tsc22d3-2) is a widely expressed dexamethasone-induced transcript that has been proposed to be important in immunity, adipogenesis, and renal sodium handling based on in vitro studies. To address its function in v ...
The mammary gland development is regulated by steroid and peptide hormones and occurs mainly after birth, compared to the majority of the other organs in the body. The principal hormones responsible for the breast development are the estrogen, the progeste ...
Many central biol. signal transduction processes such as synaptic transmission occur at the level of cell membranes. It is therefore not surprising that the biol. function of membrane proteins in general and neuroreceptors in particular can be modulated by ...
In the present study, we screened for subtilisin-like proprotein convertases (SPCs) that potentially regulate the activation of known growth factors during embryonic development. We isolated a novel protease, SPC7, as well as several known SPCs. SPC7, like ...
The instantaneous secretion rate (ISR) of endocrine glands is not directly measurable and it can be reconstructed only indirectly by applying deconvolution algorithms to time-series of plasma hormone concentrations. In particular, nonparametric regularizat ...

A woman's breast cancer risk is affected by her reproductive history. The hormonal milieu also influences the course of the disease. The female reproductive hormones, estrogens, progesterone, and prolactin, have a major impact on breast cancer and control ...
During spermatogenesis, postmeiotic germ cells utilize lactate produced by Sertoli cells as an energy metabolite. While the hormonal regulation of lactate production in Sertoli cells has been relatively well established, the transport of this energy substr ...
