17 beta-Estradiol biosynthesis in cultured granulosa and thecal cells of human ovarian follicles: stimulation by follicle-stimulating hormone.
Moon YS, Tsang BK, Simpson C, Armstrong DT.
Cellular sites and gonadotropic control of human follicular estrogen secretion have been assessed by culturing the theca and granulosa components separately under different hormonal conditions. Granulosa cells from human follicles were grown in chemically defined media containing gonadotropins and/or testosterone (T) for 24 h. The production of 17 beta-estradiol (E2) by cells cultivated in T-free media with or without FSH was very low during the culture period. There was a highly significant increase (P less than 0.001) in E2 production when T alone was added and a more marked increase was consistently noted in the presence of FSH and T. In all cases, hCG failed to exert any significant effect on E2 production by granulosa cells in the presence or absence of T. No treatments examined altered the E2 production of thecal cells during a 24-h culture period and the amounts of E2 released into media were negligible when compared with levels produced by granulosa cells from the same follicles. It is concluded that granulosa cells but not thecal cells are the prime site of follicular estrogen production and that FSH regulates estrogen secretion by nonluteinized granulosa cells of the human follicle.

Manipulation of gonadal hormones in neonatal rats alters the morphological response of cortical neurons to brain injury in adulthood.
Forgie ML, Kolb B.
Department of Psychology and Neuroscience, The University of Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada. forgileth.ca
The authors examined the effects of sex and neonatal hormones on the response of pyramidal cells (Layer III, parietal cortex) to injury of the medial frontal cortex in the adult rat. At birth, males were gonadectomized (GDX) or sham-operated. Females were given testosterone (T) or oil injections. In adulthood, rats that had been left intact at birth were GDX, and they then received bilateral medial frontal cortex lesions or sham surgery. Rats not exposed to T at birth exhibited losses of dendritic arbor (males GDX at birth) or dendritic spine density (oil-treated females). Compensation after cortical injury is dependent on the rat's sex and history of exposure to gonadal steroids.

Effect of thyroid hormones on the prolactin response to thyrotropin-releasing hormone in normal persons and euthyroid goitrous patients.
Carlson HE, Sawin CT, Krugman LG, Meyer NC, Hershman JM.
In nine euthyroid goitrous patients, increasing doses of T4 caused a significant decrease in the PRL response to TRH; the PRL response fell significantly at a dose of T4 of 100 micrograms/day for 1 month (P less than 0.02) and fell further with increasing doses so that at 300 micrograms T4/day, the PRL response was 40% of that in the untreated state. T4 treatment also blunted the PRL response to chlorpromazine (P less than 0.05) in a separate group of euthyroid goitrous patients. In contrast, there was only a small drop of the PRL response to TRH in normal subjects treated with T4 (n = 9) and none at all with T3 (n = 7). These data, together with previously published reports, suggest that thyroid hormone may affect PRL secretion in the presence of thyroid disease (hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, or euthyroid goiter), but that physiological amounts of thyroid hormone have little or no modulating effect on PRL secretion in normal persons.

Pituitary function after removal of pituitary microadenomas in Cushing's disease.
Schnall AM, Brodkey JS, Kaufman B, Pearson OH.
Pituitary function has been studied sequentially after transsphenoidal removal of pituitary microadenomas in two men with Cushing's disease. Patient 1 gradually regained normal glucocorticoid levels with normal diurnal variation, metyrapone responsiveness, and low dose dexamethasone suppressibility (17-hydroxycorticosteroid, 6.5-0.9 mg/24 h). GH levels rose from 1 to 35 ng/ml during insulin hypoglycemia and from 2.3 to 27 ng/ml during arginine infusion. PRL secretion rose normally in response to thorazine, and gonadotropin and TSH levels remained normal. Patient 2 regained significant metyrapone responsiveness by 9 months postoperatively (11-deoxycortisol rose to 11.7 micrograms/dl), had a normal spontaneous nocturnal rise in PRL secretion, and normal levels of testosterone and thyroid hormones. The return to normal of cortisol-ACTH dynamics and GH responsiveness in Patient 1 and the normal nocturnal surge in PRL secretion in Patient 2 imply that in these patients the etiology of Cushing's disease was not related to hypothalamic dysfunction.

Dopamine affects basal and augmented pituitary hormone secretion.
Leebaw WF, Lee LA, Woolf PD.
Although the role of the neurotransmitter, dopamine (DA), in the regulation of PRL has been well documented, controversy exists regarding its participation in the regulation of the other pituitary hormones. Consequently, we infused DA into six healthy male subjects (ages 19-32) and studied its effects on both basal pituitary hormone levels and augmented hormonal release induced by insulin hypoglycemia (ITT), TRH, and gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH). DA alone produced a modest though significant increase in GH concentration from 2.2 +/- 0.5 to 11.9 +/- 3.7 ng/ml (P less than 0.05) by 60 min, but the peak incremental GH response to ITT was significantly inhibited by DA (43.5 +/- 5.0 vs. 16.3 +/- 3.3 ng/ml; P less than 0.01). PRL concentrations fell during the DA infusion (20.4 +/- 3.0 to 10.6 +/- 1.5 ng/ml; P less than 0.02) at 235 min, and the PRL responses to both ITT and TRH were completely abolished. Although the basal LH and FSH concentrations were unaffected by DA, the incremental LH response to GnRH was inhibited (45.5 +/- 10.6 to 24.4 +/- 5.4 mIU/ml; P less than 0.05), while the FSH response was unchanged. DA significantly reduced the basal TSH concentration from 3.9 +/- 0.2 to 2.5 +/- 0.2 micro U/ml (P less than 0.01) at 230 min and blunted the peak incremental TSH response to TRH (6.0 +/- 1.5 vs. 2.9 +/- 0.9 microU/ml; P less than 0.01). DA had no effect on basal cortisol levels, the cortisol response to ITT, basal plasma glucose, or the degree of hypoglycemia after ITT. Our data provide new evidence that DA has an inhibitory as well as a stimulatory role in the regulation of GH secretion in normal humans. It inhibits centrally as well as peripherally mediated PRL secretion and blunts the LH response to GnRH. In addition, DA lowers both basal and TRH-mediated TSH release, confirming the reports of other investigators.

Natural Herbal Supplement: Hair Million
Hair Loss, or alopecia is a concern
for increasing number of folks in aging society. Loss of hair is a visible problem, and affects the appearance and changes identity of a person.
The phenomenon of hair thinning and hair loss is most commonly associated with natural aging, although there are many other causes of hair loss, which include inherited or genetic conditions, illnesses, malnutrition, stress, hormonal problems, chemotherapy, and use of some drugs.
Hair growth is a sophisticated biological process, which has not yet been completely understood. A multitude of therapeutic measures, including drugs, surgery, and suppelements have been made available, and used. However, due to the heterogeneity in the underlying cause, there is no perfect cure for all hair loss cases. Most of chemical drugs and hair transplantation surgeries are not free from varying degrees of undesirable side effects on health.
Hair Million is an alternative solution to hair loss problems. Anecdotally, it shows prositive results and improvement for age-related hair thinning and hair loss for a fraction of people who take it. We do not know the mechanisms of action as to how Hair Million works to help stop hair loss, and promote hair growth. We only know by anecdotal observations. There has been no clinical trials nor placebo controlled statistical analysis on the efficacy of Hair Million on hair loss and hair growth. However, there are two merits in this hair restoration herbal formula:
Firstly, Hair Million is rather inexpensive, and secondly, it is made of well known herbs that are safe when consumed in regular quantities.
