Mutant human APP exacerbates pathology in a mouse model of NPC and its reversal by a β-cyclodextrin.

abstract：:Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) is an essential messenger of sexual differentiation in the foetus and is an emerging biomarker of postnatal reproductive function in females. Due to a paucity of adequately sized studies, the genetic determinants of circulating AMH levels are poorly characterized. In samples from 2815 adol...
