Journal Article
Elmorsy, E., Al-Ghafari, A., Aggour, A. M., Khan, R., & Amer, S. A. (2017). The role of oxidative stress in antipsychotics induced ovarian toxicity. Toxicology in Vitro, 44, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tiv.2017.07.008

This study tested the hypothesis that oxidative stress could be an underlying mechanism for APs-induced ovarian cytotoxicity and reproductive dysfunction. Rat ovarian theca interstitial cells (TICs) were isolated and treated with four APs [chlorproma... Read More about The role of oxidative stress in antipsychotics induced ovarian toxicity.

Gene expression of inflammatory markers in adipose tissue between obese women with polycystic ovary and normal obese women (2017)
Journal Article
Alshammari, G., Khan, R., Brameld, J. M., Amer, S. A., & Lomax, M. A. (2017). Gene expression of inflammatory markers in adipose tissue between obese women with polycystic ovary and normal obese women. European Review for Medical and Pharmacological Sciences, 21(5),

OBJECTIVE: The pathogenesis of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a common endocrine disease and metabolic disturbance, is still unknown. The aim of the study was to investigate whether patients with PCOS display increased expression of inflammatory m...

Effect of antipsychotics on mitochondrial bioenergetics of rat ovarian theca cells (2017)
Journal Article
Elmorsy, E., Al-Ghafari, A., Aggour, A. M., Mosad, S. M., Khan, R., & Amer, S. (2017). Effect of antipsychotics on mitochondrial bioenergetics of rat ovarian theca cells. Toxicology Letters, 272, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.toxlet.2017.03.018

Background Antipsychotics (APs) are widely prescribed drugs, which are well known to cause reproductive adverse effects through mechanisms yet to be determined. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of antipsychotics on mitochond... Read More about Effect of antipsychotics on mitochondrial bioenergetics of rat ovarian theca cells.
