Physiologic Course of Female Reproductive Function: A Molecular Look into the Prologue of Life by Joselyn Rojas, Mervin Chávez-Castillo, Luis Carlos Olivar, María Calvo, José Mejías, Milagros Rojas, Jessenia Morillo, Valmore Bermúdez

“…This vital course may be systematized in three subsequent stages: prenatal development of ovaries and germ cells up until in utero arrest of follicular growth and the ensuing interim suspension of gonadal function; onset of reproductive maturity through puberty, with reinitiation of both gonadal and adrenal activity; and adult functionality of the ovarian cycle which permits ovulation, a key event in female fertility, and dictates concurrent modifications in the endometrium and other ovarian hormone-sensitive tissues. …”

Sex differences in the relationship between maternal and foetal glucocorticoids in a free-ranging large mammal by Amin, Bawan, Fishman, Ruth, Quinn, Matthew, Matas, Devorah, Palme, Rupert, Koren, Lee, Ciuti, Simone

“…Here we related, for the first time in a free-ranging large mammal, the fallow deer (Dama dama), maternal GC levels with foetal in utero GC levels. We did this in a non-invasive way by quantifying cortisol metabolites from faecal samples collected from pregnant does during late gestation, as proxy for maternal GC level. …”

Analysis of a mouse germ cell tumor model establishes pluripotency-associated miRNAs as conserved serum biomarkers for germ cell cancer detection by Amanda R. Loehr, Dennis M. Timmerman, Michelle Liu, Ad J. M. Gillis, Melia Matthews, Jordana C. Bloom, Peter K. Nicholls, David C. Page, Andrew D. Miller, Leendert H. J. Looijenga, Robert S. Weiss

“…We previously developed a genetically engineered mouse model featuring malignant mixed TGCTs consisting of pluripotent embryonal carcinoma (EC) and differentiated teratoma that, like the corresponding human malignancies, originate in utero and are highly chemosensitive. Here, we report that miRNAs in the mouse miR-290-295 cluster, homologs of the human miR-371-373 cluster, were detectable in serum from mice with malignant TGCTs but not from tumor-free control mice or mice with benign teratomas. miR-291-293 were expressed and secreted specifically by pluripotent EC cells, and expression was lost following differentiation induced by the drug thioridazine. …”
