To read the full abstract: Nature Communications 2018;9:1544Obesity prevalence is generally higher in women than in men, and there is also a sex difference in body fat distribution. Sex differences in obesity can be explained in part by the influence of gonadal steroids on body composition and appetite; however, behavioural, and socio-cultural factors may also play a role. Here is th...

Front Genet. 2022 Mar 3;13:736988. PMID: 35309143, doi: 10.3389/fgene.2022.736988.Brief Summary: This molecular study highlights a novel mechanism of action of Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 1 (MAP3K1) in the development of testicular dysgenesis.MAP3K1 is one of the most common genes that has been identified to cause 46, XY DSD and variants are attribu...

Cell Metabolism 2022;34(5):667-80.e6. doi: 10.1016/j.cmet.2022.03.006Brief Summary: In preclinical models and a phase 1 trial, a powerful new lipid small molecule was shown to act through a mechanism distinct from those of known hypolipidemic agents. Targeting HNF-1α may be a new therapeutic strategy.Comment: Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is the most common...
