Atlas of Fshr expression from novel reporter mice by Hongqian Chen, Hui-Qing Fang, Jin-Tao Liu, Shi-Yu Chang, Li-Ben Cheng, Ming-Xin Sun, Jian-Rui Feng, Ze-Min Liu, Yong-Hong Zhang, Clifford J Rosen, Peng Liu

“…Reporter animals were also subjected to additional analyses,to define the accurate expression profile of FSHR in gonadal and extragonadal organs/tissues. Our compelling results not only demonstrated Fshr expression in intragonadal tissues but also, strikingly, unveiled notably increased expression in Leydig cells, osteoblast lineage cells, endothelial cells in vascular structures, and epithelial cells in bronchi of the lung and renal tubes. …”

Association between Late Manifestations of Testicular Dysgenesis Syndrome and Anogenital Distance: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis by Carolina Arissa Tsutida, Ana Carolina Bernard Veiga, Anderson Joel Martino-Andrade, Diancarlos Pereira de Andrade, Rosiane Guetter Mello, Juliane Centeno Müller

“…Background: In 2001, Skakkebæk et al. proposed that certain male reproductive disorders might be grouped into a syndrome called testicular dysgenesis syndrome (TDS), as they all appear to be associated with disruption of the embryonic and foetal programming of gonadal development. TDS may be manifested in early life by the presence of genital malformations (hypospadias and cryptorchidism) and in adult life as disorders represented by low sperm counts and testicular cancer. …”

Adolescent and adult mice use both incremental reinforcement learning and short term memory when learning concurrent stimulus-action associations. by Juliana Chase, Liyu Xia, Lung-Hao Tai, Wan Chen Lin, Anne G E Collins, Linda Wilbrecht

“…However, reliance on a one-back perseverative, win-stay strategy increased with development in males in both odor set sizes, but was not dependent on gonadal hormones. Our findings advance a simple conditional associative learning task and new models to enable the isolation and quantification of reinforcement learning alongside other strategies mice use while learning to associate stimuli with rewards within a single behavioral session. …”
