Acute changes in serum osteoprotegerin and receptor activator for nuclear factor-kappa B ligand levels in women with established osteoporosis treated with teriparatide
(2008)Objective: The mechanisms regulating the anabolic response of the skeleton to intermittent exogenous parathyroid hormone (PTH) administration are not fully elucidated. The aim of this prospective study was to evaluate the ... -
Association of repeat polymorphisms in the estrogen receptors alpha, beta, and androgen receptor genes with knee osteoarthritis
(2005)Genetic factors have been shown to play an important role in the etiology of osteoarthritis (OA). To elucidate the possible role of genetic variation in the estrogen receptors alpha and beta (ER-alpha, ER-beta) and androgen ... -
Associations of Estrogen Receptor Alpha and Beta Gene Polymorphisms with Lipid Levels and Insulin Resistance in Men
(2015)Objective. The association of four single nucleotide polymorphisms in estrogen receptor alpha (ESR1) and beta (ESR2) genes with lipid levels and insulin resistance in men. Design and methods. Lipids, glucose, insulin and ... -
Bisphosphonate use and risk of colorectal cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis
(2013)AimA growing body of evidence suggests that bisphosphonates may have chemopreventive potential against colorectal cancer. Our aim was to examine this association through a meta-analysis of observational studies. MethodsA ... -
Blockage of ghrelin-induced prolactin secretion in women by bromocriptine
(2010)Objective: To investigate the effect of bromocriptine on ghrelin-induced PRL secretion in women. Design: Longitudinal study. Setting: University hospital. Patient(s): Ten healthy, normally cycling women. Intervention(s): ... -
Blood ghrelin, resistin, and adiponectin concentrations during the normal menstrual cycle
(2009)Objective: To investigate changes of ghrelin, resistin, and adiponectin levels in the circulation during the normal menstrual cycle. Design: Longitudinal study. Setting: The study was conducted at a university hospital. ... -
BsmI, TaqI, ApaI and FokI polymorphisms in the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene and the risk of osteoporosis: A meta-analysis
(2006)A meta-analysis regarding BsmI, TaqI, ApaI and FokI polymorphisms in the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene and their associations with osteoporosis in females is reported. The meta-analysis involved 14, seven, seven and three ... -
Computer-assisted evaluation of Mandibular Cortical Width (MCW) index as an indicator of osteoporosis
(2014)Background: To assess the diagnostic accuracy of mandibular cortical width (MCW) as an indicator of the presence of osteoporosis. Materials and methods: The study included 343 women between 45-75 years of age. After informed ... -
The effect of estrogens on plasma ghrelin concentrations in women
(2010)Background: Data regarding the possible effects of estrogen on ghrelin secretion in humans are limited and contradictory. Aim: To investigate the effect of estradiol (E2) on ghrelin levels in normal pre- and post-menopausal ... -
Effect of ghrelin and metoclopramide on prolactin secretion in normal women
(2011)Background: Administration of ghrelin to women stimulates the secretion of PRL but the mechanism is not known. Aim: The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of the dopamine receptor blocker, metoclopramide, on ... -
Effect of Ghrelin and Thyrotropin-releasing Hormone on Prolactin Secretion in Normal Women
(2010)It is known that ghrelin stimulates the secretion of prolactin in women. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of exogenous thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) on ghrelin-induced prolactin release. Ten healthy ... -
Effect of ovarian hormones on serum adiponectin and resistin concentrations
(2009)Objective: To investigate the effect of ovarian hormones on adiponectin and resistin levels in women. Design: Experimental study. Setting: University hospital. Patient(s): Thirteen normally cycling women (7 in group I and ... -
The effects of acute exercise on serum adiponectin and resistin levels and their relation to insulin sensitivity in overweight males
(2006)The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a submaximal aerobic exercise bout on adiponectin and resistin levels as well as insulin sensitivity, until 48 h post-exercise in healthy overweight males. Nine ... -
Elemental composition of bone minerals in women with breast cancer treated with adjuvant tamoxifen
(1996)Oestrogen levels play a major role in conditioning the rates of bone changes in women. Tamoxifen is a synthetic oestrogen antagonist commonly used as an adjuvant therapy for breast cancer. The goal of the present study was ... -
Evidence that termination of the estradiol-induced luteinizing hormone surge in women is regulated by ovarian factors
(2006)Background: The endogenous LH surge is the result of the estrogen-positive feedback effect. However, the factors that are responsible for the termination of LH surge are not known. Objective: The objective of the study was ... -
Expression of 6 Common Antigenic Markers in Invasive Ductal Breast Carcinoma: Potential Clinical Implications
(2011)Expression of estrogen (ER) and progesterone receptors, c-erbB-2 oncogene, mutant p53 antioncogene (mp53), e-cadherin adhesion, and apoptotic caspase-8 antigens in tumor relative to matched normal tissue specimens from 102 ... -
Growth hormone and prolactin response to ghrelin during the normal menstrual cycle
(2009)Objective It has been suggested that exogenous oestradiol augments ghrelin-induced growth hormone (GH) secretion in postmenopausal women. Whether endogenous oestrogens exert a similar effect during the normal menstrual ... -
Inhibitory Effect of Submaximal Doses of Ghrelin on Gonadotropin Secretion in Women
(2014)The effect of ghrelin on gonadotropin secretion has been equivocal. Recent data have shown an inhibitory effect of repeated injections of ghrelin on nocturnal LH and FSH secretion in women. The aim of this study was to ... -
Lack of association of acute phase response proteins with hormone levels and antidepressant medication in perimenopausal depression
