Summary: Analysis of serum IgG glycosylation can provide valuable supplementary parameters for the diagnosis of endometriosis, helping to differentiate women with endometriosis from healthy women. The results suggest that IgG sialylation and galactosylation/agalactosylation degree can serve as indicators for assessing the risk of endometriosis.

Summary: This study aims to evaluate the relationship between sex hormones levels and cardiac structure and function in older women. The results suggest that higher serum testosterone levels may contribute to pathological cardiac remodeling, especially in hypertensive women.

Summary: The research findings demonstrate significant differences in the regulation of gonadotropin cells among different vertebrate classes, with fish and birds using a mono-hormonal strategy suggesting a potential convergent evolution. Through comparison of novel transcriptome data, unique GPCR signaling regulating metabolic and homeostatic hormones and shared genes among different species controlling gonadotropins were revealed.

Summary: This study reported a case of a 17-year-old boy suffering from severe macrothrombocytopenia caused by compound heterozygous variants in GNE. The decreased sialylation of platelets due to these variants led to reduced FH binding, moderate complement activation, and increased hemolysis.

Summary: This study compared pregnancy rates of oral ovarian hyperstimulation agents and injectable agents in older women with diminished ovarian reserve undergoing intrauterine insemination. Findings suggest that oral stimulation agents may be the first-line option, with letrozole having conferred the highest clinical pregnancy rate. However, larger population studies are needed to support these results.

Summary: The study revealed that serum kallistatin levels are significantly decreased in women with preeclampsia (PE), with a more pronounced decrease in those with early-onset PE (EOPE). Serum kallistatin showed negative correlations with blood pressure, creatinine, and positive correlations with gestational age-related parameters.

Summary: African American women have higher rates of maternal morbidity and mortality, especially related to cardiometabolic complications of pregnancy. Changes in lipid levels, specifically docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs), are associated with these complications. In this study, a lipid signature in early pregnancy serum samples of African American women was identified, which has a predictive accuracy of 74% for cardiometabolic complications. These findings suggest that blood-based markers in early pregnancy could potentially help identify at-risk individuals and tailor interventions.

Summary: This study evaluated the sleep parameters of patients with Cushing syndrome (CS) and found that their sleep structure was disturbed, partially reversible after treatment. However, the risk of obstructive sleep apnea remained even a year after treatment, emphasizing the importance of early diagnosis and treatment.

Summary: Fusing the albumin binding domain (ABD) to granulocyte colony stimulating factor (GCSF) can improve its pharmacokinetic properties, reduce mortality, and increase neutrophil count. Experimental results show that the ABD fusion does not significantly affect the structure of the GCSF molecule and can increase the half-life in the blood.

Summary: The study investigated the impact of NO3- concentration in Pseudomonas aeruginosa medium on the formation of extracellular polymer substance (EPS) film and biocorrosion of Cu. Results showed that limiting NO3- triggered increased EPS film but decreased biocorrosion of Cu, while higher NO3- content accelerated Cu corrosion rate and increased weight loss and pit depth. Analysis indicated Cu2O as the major corrosion product. Increased corrosion rate with higher NO3- levels was attributed to EET-MIC route, Cu(NH3)(2)(+) formation, and more loose EPS film.

Summary: The encapsulation possibilities of two neuroprotective drugs, KYNA and SzR72, in BSA nanoparticles were studied to enhance their permeability through the blood-brain barrier. Various preparation conditions were tested, and it was found that successful encapsulation could only be achieved when the drugs were added to pre-prepared BSA nanoparticles. Adjusting the pH to 4.0 increased drug loading and caused significant structural changes, indicating drug insertion into the hydrophobic pockets of BSA. In vitro permeability tests showed three- to fourfold higher BBB penetration for encapsulated KYNA compared to the unformatted drug.

Summary: The half-lives of low-N-glycosylated and fully N-glycosylated glycoforms of FSH and LH in women's circulation were compared, and the former had shorter half-lives than the latter. The half-lives of low and fully N-glycosylated forms of LH were also shorter than the corresponding forms of FSH.
