• Delta and kappa opioid receptors on mouse sperm cells: Expression, localization and involvement on in vitro fertilization 

  Olabarrieta López, Estíbaliz; Totorikaguena Iturriaga, Lide; Romero Aguirregomezcorta, Jon; Aguirregoitia Marcos, Naiara; Aguirregoitia Marcos, Ekaitz (Elsevier, 2020-03-04)

  The endogenous opioid peptides have been reported to be involved in the regulation of reproductive physiology. Many of the studies conclude with sentences around the harmful effect of opioids in male fertility but, actually, ...
• The endocannabinoid system modulates the ovarian physiology and its activation can improve in vitro oocyte maturation 

  Totorikaguena Iturriaga, Lide; Olabarrieta López, Estíbaliz; Lolicato, Francesca; Romero Aguirregomezcorta, Jon; Smitz, Johan; Aguirregoitia Marcos, Naiara; Aguirregoitia Marcos, Ekaitz (Wiley, 2020-03-20)

  The cannabinoid (CB) system has been involved in many aspects of reproduction and it is known that the systemic chronic use of exogenous CBs are deleterious to reproductive processes. Even so, it is not known what happens ...
• Role of Angiotensin-(1-7) via MAS receptor in human sperm motility and acrosome reaction 

  Valdivia Palacin, Asier; Cortés Meler, Lorea; Beitia, Maider; Totorikaguena Iturriaga, Lide; Aguirregoitia Marcos, Naiara; Corcóstegui, Beatriz; Casis Sáenz, Luis; Matorras Weinig, José Roberto; Irazusta Astiazaran, Jon; Aguirregoitia Marcos, Ekaitz (Bioscientifica, 2020-03)

  Rennin-angiotensin system (RAS) has been involved in sperm function, even so, little is known about the implication of one of the RAS axis formed by Ang-(1-7) (angiotensin-(1-7)) and MAS receptor. Hence, in the present ...
• Relating trophic ecology and Hg species contamination in a resident opportunistic seabird of the Bay of Biscay. 

  Zorrozua Gamboa, Nere; Monperrus, Mathilde; Aldalur, Asier; Diaz, Beñat; Egunez, Alexandra; Galarza, Aitor; Hidalgo, Jon; Milon, Emilie; Sanpera, Carola; Arizaga Martínez, Juan (Elsevier, 2020-04-18)

  Methylmercury (MeHg) is the most bioavailable and toxic form of the globally distributed pollutant Hg. Organisms of higher trophic levels living in aquatic ecosystems have potentially higher concentrations of MeHg. In ...
