Stereological and allometric studies on neurons and axo-dendritic synapses in superior cervical Ganglia.
Abstract The superior cervical ganglion (SCG) plays an important role in neuropathies including Horner's syndrome, stroke, and epilepsy. While mammalian SCGs seem to share certain organizational features, they display natural differences related to the animal size and side and the complexity and synaptic coverage of their dendritic arborizations. However, apart from the rat SCG, there is little information concerning the number of SCG neurons and synapses, and the nature of relationships between body weight and the numbers and sizes of neurons and synapses remain uncertain. In the recognition of this gap in the li...

Sexual hormones and diabetes: The impact of estradiol in pancreatic β cell
Int Rev Cell Mol Biol. 2021;359:81-138. doi: 10.1016/bs.ircmb.2021.02.004. Epub 2021 Mar 16.ABSTRACTDiabetes is one of the most prevalent metabolic diseases and its incidence is increasing throughout the world. Data from World Health Organization (WHO) point-out that diabetes is a major cause of blindness, kidney failure, heart attacks, stroke and lower limb amputation and estimated 1.6 million deaths were directly caused by it in 2016. Population studies show that the incidence of this disease increases in women after menopause, when the production of estrogen is decreasing in them. Knowing the impact that estrogenic sign...
