Brief summary: This long-term longitudinal study of 437 Danish girls shows that AMH level measured in infancy is a useful tool to predict future ovarian activity.Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) is produced by granulosa cells in small ovarian follicles and thus reflects the ovarian reserve of resting primordial follicles (1). High AMH concentrations are observed in women with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) (2), while low age-specific AMH could be as...

klaus.mueller@regionh.dk Transplant Cell Ther. 2021 Sep;27(9): 778.e1-778.e8. PMID: 34091072.Brief Summary: Several studies in cancer survivors have reported an increased prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MetS), which is often observed in the absence of overt obesity. Data about MetS in survivors of pediatric hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) are scarce. This cross-sectional cohort study...

Int J Obes (Lond). 2021;45(1):66–76. doi: https://doi.org/10.1038/s41366-020-00673-6This study investigated the influence of MC4R variants on treatment effectiveness in a large cohort undergoing an outpatient treatment program. Carriers of MC4R loss-of-function (LoF) variants showed a lack of improvement in BMI, in contrast to non LoF carriers.As we learn th...

To read the full abstract: N Engl J Med 2017;377:633-643Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) regulates levels of plasma LDL-C by interacting with the LDL receptor. After binding and internalization, PCSK9 directs the LDL receptor to lysosomal degradation and inhibits its recycling to the cell surface, and thus accelerates the degradation of hepatic LDL receptors. This reduces the ...
