Dynamics of INSL3 Peptide Expression in the Rodent Testis (2009)
Journal Article
Anand-Ivell, R., Heng, K., Hafen, B., Setchell, B., & Ivell, R. (2009). Dynamics of INSL3 Peptide Expression in the Rodent Testis. Biology of Reproduction, 81(3), 480-487. https://doi.org/10.1095/biolreprod.109.077552

The Leydig cell-specific factor insulin-like peptide 3 (INSL3) is involved in testicular descent during embryo development, and has been suggested to regulate spermatogenesis and bone metabolism in the adult. Using a new, sensitive assay specific for... Read More about Dynamics of INSL3 Peptide Expression in the Rodent Testis.

Demographic, physical and lifestyle factors associated with androgen status: The Florey Adelaide Male Ageing Study (FAMAS) (2009)
Journal Article

Objective Plasma androgen levels are inversely associated with health in men, the age-related decline of which may result from factors other than ageing per se. This study aimed to determine the effects of demographic, physical and lifestyle factors...

Biology of insulin-like factor 3 in human reproduction (2009)
Journal Article
Ivell, R., & Anand-ivell, R. (2009). Biology of insulin-like factor 3 in human reproduction. Human Reproduction Update, 15(4), 463-476. https://doi.org/10.1093/humupd/dmp011

Background: Insulin-like factor 3 (INSL3) is a neohormone that has evolved to address specific mammalian traits, in particular, the first phase of testicular descent towards the scrotum during mid-gestation. Methods: A thorough literature search was... Read More about Biology of insulin-like factor 3 in human reproduction.

Prenatal induced chronic dietary hypothyroidism delays but does not block adult-type Leydig cell development (2009)
Journal Article
Rijntjes, E., Swarts, H. J., Anand-Ivell, R., & Teerds, K. J. (2009). Prenatal induced chronic dietary hypothyroidism delays but does not block adult-type Leydig cell development. AJP - Endocrinology and Metabolism, 296(2), E305-E314. https://doi.org/10.1152/ajpendo.90750.2008

Transient hypothyroidism induced by propyl-2-thiouracyl blocks postpartum Leydig cell development. In the present study, the effects of chronic hypothyroidism on the formation of this adult-type Leydig cell population were investigated, using a more...
