IT is known that women who smoke have an earlier menopause than those do not.1 , 2 Noting recent data suggesting breast cancer might be somewhat less frequent in smokers non-smokers,3 4 5 we thought it would worthwhile to compare the estrogen profiles of and nonsmokers. A difference shed light on mechanisms whereby smoking associated with early a reduction risk cancer. Smoking histories were obtained from for whom urinary concentrations had been determined previously. As compared nonsmokers...
We analyzed the usage and consequences of alternative cleavage polyadenylation (APA) in Drosophila melanogaster by using >1 billion reads stranded mRNA-seq across a variety dissected tissues. Beyond demonstrating that majority fly transcripts are subject to APA, we observed broad trends for 3' untranslated region (UTR) shortening testis lengthening central nervous system (CNS); latter included hundreds unannotated extensions ranging up 18 kb. Extensive northern analyses validated...
Abstract In 511 nulliparous women aged 15–19 years and 347 30–39, an analysis has been undertaken of the relationship urine concentrations three principal estrogens to age, age at menarche Quetelet's index adiposity. The was by means multiple regression, controlling for each 12 centers from which data originated, as well other study variables. younger women, strongly positively related El E2 less so E3. group folluiar phase specimens showed positive relationships with all fractions but...
Abstract Œstrone (El), œstradiol (E2) and œstriol (E3) were measured in the urine of Asian North American women aged 15‐19, 20‐24 30‐39 years, during follicular luteal phases menstrual cycle. Each specimen was characterized by its proportion, E3/(E1+E2+E3). In each age group cycle phase Asians had lower concentrations œstrone a higher oestriol proportion than Americans. The differences greatest youngest group. Differences between from two cities or three areas small. data support idea that...
Abstract An analysis is undertaken of the frequency ovulation in 17 groups women aged 15 to 19 who had been subjects other studies. A urine specimen at least 8 h accumulation provided on 20th or 21st day a menstrual cycle by 681 women. Analysis restricted 431 specimens which collected between 11 and 3 days prior onset subsequent period. pregnanediol concentration less than 1 mg per litre such was taken as evidence that anovular. The probability being anovular inversely significantly related...
Abstract It has previously been suggested that young women who excrete a low proportion of urinary estrogen as estriol are at high risk for breast cancer. Breast-cancer rates Oriental in Hawaii lower than those Caucasians but substantially higher Asia. In this study three estrogens were measured urine 15 to 39 years old Honolulu; 101 subjects Chinese, 132 Japanese and 129 Caucasian descent. Hawaii, whose cancer rate is similar on the North American mainland, had ratios mainland women....

The purpose of this study was to gain insight into the skeletal muscle development potential in women and evaluate contribution pennation angle (PANG) fascicle length gender differences size or FFM accumulation.Skeletal architectural characteristics were studied 29 strength-trained female 22 age- height-matched male college athletes. Muscle thickness (MTH) measured by B-mode ultrasound at 13 anatomical sites. Isolated MTH PANG triceps long head (TL), vastus lateralis (VL), gastrocnemius...
One of the great difficulties in estimating excretion gonadotropins non-pregnant subjects is fact that no International Standard preparation available for comparative assay these substances. Accordingly it has been necessary to express results clinical assays terms arbitrary “animal” units, a unit being defined as quantity produce given effect. Arbitrary units employed intact and hypophysectomized rats have included doses induce vaginal cornification, cause histologic changes ovaries, 50–100...
In a 10-year incidence survey of breast cancer in the City Boston, 14 cases American Chinese women were observed, while approximately 13 expected on basis age-specific white population. Hawaii, other hand, rates for ethnic are three times as high those indigenous populations, data indicate that they still 35% lower than whites Hawaii or US mainland. We have compared estrogen concentrations urine Orient, Honolulu, and Boston. Levels estrone (E1) estradiol (E2) increased greatly from low to...
Forty-one women with breast cancer and 119 controls participated in a case-control study of the relation endogenous sex hormones to carcinoma premenopausal women. During follicular phase menstrual cycle, one overnight urine specimen was collected. luteal phase, blood specimens were obtained. 17 beta-Estradiol, hormone-binding globulin, progesterone, prolactin measured plasma, whereas estrogen metabolites (estrone, estradiol, estriol) pregnanediol assessed urine. Breast associated high-plasma...
Summary Longitudinal studies involving weekly measurement of urinary oestrogen and pregnanediol excretion were performed in 55 post-partum women to identify the patterns returning fertility. The kept diaries breast-feeding episodes, mucus symptoms times bleeding; some recorded basal body temperature acts intercourse. study represented a total time 36 years (7·8 months per woman). majority throughout study. During lactation amenorrhoea, there was complete ovarian quiescence two-thirds...
Creatinine-adjusted levels of estrone, estradiol and estriol were determined in overnight urine specimens from 220 post-menopausal women, aged 54 to 66 years, Boston (121 women) Athens (99 women). The associations individual total estrogens with various characteristics the women (age at menopause, years since parity, age menarche, schooling, height, weight, tobacco smoking alcohol drinking) studied by multiple regression procedures, explore possible relationships evaluate their compatibility...
