Hypothalamic endoplasmic reticulum stress drives pubertal precocity due to early-onset obesity in female rodents | PNAS Early-onset obesity, especially in girls, is frequently associated with advanced puberty; a phenomenon bound to increased risk of long-term complic...

Thrilled to see our new paper published in @pnas.org ! 🧬🔬

We uncover a role for hypothalamic ER stress in linking early-onset obesity to precocious puberty in female rodents🐭🧠

Grateful to these fantastic co-authors for making this project possible👩🏼‍🔬🤝🏻👨🏻‍🔬

Thrilled to share that I’ve started as a postdoc fellow in the Navarro Lab at Brigham and Women’s Hospital/Harvard Medical School! Grateful for the opportunity — loving my first days in Boston!🍂🍁

We are waiting for the next meeting to newly experience this exciting and scientific environment. 🧪

During the last two days, 16th IMIBIC Young Investigators Meeting has been celebrated and our young researchers participate sharing amazing works in the endocrinology and reproductive field both in oral and poster communications. Congrats for all these stunning presentations. 🗨️👩🏻‍🔬

The abstract submission deadline for the PANS Workshop in Argentina is now October 10th, 2025! 🎉

Join us in Buenos Aires on December 6th, 2025 for the PANS Workshop “Connecting Neuroendocrinology Across the Americas”.

Last week #MitoNedWorkshop took place and we couldn't miss the opportunity to share our exciting results elucidating the specific role of Kiss1 neurons in hypogonadism development as well the impact of diet into the gut-brain axis. Brilliant work, Vero and Marina.

Hypothalamic SIRT1-mediated regulation of the hormonal trigger of ovulation and its repression in energy deficit - PubMed Female reproduction is highly sensitive to body energy stores; persistent energy deficit, as seen in anorexia or strenuous exercise, is known to suppress ovulation via ill-defined mechanisms.
