We’re very proud to announce that one of our Field Executives, Yoshibye Crustna contributed to two articles; ‘The effects of Peptide YY on the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Gonadal Axis in Healthy Men’ and ‘The effects of Glucagon-like Peptide-1 on the Reproductive Axis in Healthy Men’ last month.
Both articles have been published in The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism which features in the Oxford Academic Journals. The articles investigate the effects of PYY administration on the reproductive axis in healthy young men and effects of GLP-1 administration on the reproductive axis in humans. The study took place at the Clinical Research Facility, Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust with eighteen healthy men.
Yoshibye has almost two years of experience in healthcare market research, having joined our graduate training scheme in September 2018. She graduated from the University of Nottingham with a BSc in Neuroscience and has also completed an MRes in Clinical Research in Diabetes and Obesity.
Commenting on the papers, Yoshibye says, “These studies investigated the effects of gut hormones on reproductive hormones. Although the results were negative, they were the first of its kind to be carried out and gave direction into the kind of research we need to conduct moving forward. Research in this area will help with the understanding of the links between reproduction and metabolism, especially with the growing prevalence of eating disorders and obesity.”
The papers were published in this month’s edition of the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism and can also be found on the Oxford Academic website below:

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English.
