A wonderful team effort to characterize the actions of HSD17B2, a gene that helps some #ruff males to dial down their testosterone levels, got published @science.org (1/n)

A breeding ruff male (Calidris pugnax) in alert posture scans the breeding area for mating opportunities at Liminka Bay, Finland. Ruff males deploy one of three mating tactics that differ in aggressive and courtship behaviors. Differences in aggression between tactics are tied to concentrations of circulating androgens, which are modulated by the actions of a single gene.

A single gene underlies male mating morphs in ruff sandpipers, a new Science study finds. The results show how evolutionary changes in a single gene's structure, sequence, and regulation can drive significant diversity within a single species.

A Clever Strategy for Getting Rid of Testosterone We normally associate high testosterone levels with male dominance and aggression. Among ruffs – a shore bird that breeds across Europe and Asia – some males suffer from too much of it. Together with ...

How to get rid of too much testosterone? A new study in @science.org by @chorlnev.bsky.social and @jasmineloveland.bsky.social found a single gene in ruffs that down-regulates testosterone directly in their blood.

Thanks all for joining the launch of the @dfg.de funded FOR5795 HyperMet. Effects of skeletal muscle hypertrophy and atrophy on metabolic health! We started with resistance training and had talks to introduce HyperMet and advanced metabolic research.

Regular is the key word (and of course proper technique). Our high school football coach used to tell us “pain is weakness leaving the body”. Ready for more!

Thanks for organizing, Henning! It was great to “practice what we preach” and do training instead of eating a bunch of sweets, but I must say I paid the price, and my muscles were very sore all weekend! 😂
