Tributyltin Protumorigenic Effects Targeting Prostate Cancer Cell Metabolism, Proliferation, Migration, and Invasion

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Prostate cancer (PCa) is an endocrine‐related cancer highly dependent on androgenic signaling. Beyond hormone dependence, extrinsic factors play a significant role in the risk of developing PCa, which raises concern about the influence of environmental compounds such as endocrine‐disrupting chemicals (EDCs). Tributyltin (TBT) is an EDC used in

Microplastics and the Endocrine–Metabolic Interface: Novel Diagnostic Tools Targeting Thyroid–Adipose Axis

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microplastics (MPs) have been identified as major environmental contaminants that can affect organisms directly and act as carriers of particles and chemical additives, thereby aggravating endocrine networks that coordinate metabolic homeostasis.

Overexpression of the small GTPase Arl4D suppresses adipogenesis

, 2011
Arl4D is a developmentally-regulated member of the ADP-ribosylation factor/ARF-like protein (ARF/Arl) family of Ras-related GTPases. Although Arl4 protein is reported to be expressed in adipose tissue, the function of Arl4D is unknown. To investigate the

Blubber Thickening Driven by UCP1 Inactivation: Insights from a Cetacean‐Like Transgenic Mouse Model

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
UCP1 inactivation of cetaceans in mice drives BAT whitening and iWAT hyperplasia, promoting fat accumulation for aquatic adaptation. Abstract Cetaceans possess thick blubber, a specialized adipose tissue essential for thermal insulation, a streamlined body form, energy storage, and buoyancy. However, the mechanisms that underpin this adaptation are not

Adipokines in Obese Asthma: A Complex Relationship Influenced More by Sex, Weight, and Oral Steroid Treatment Than Disease Severity

Allergy, EarlyView.
Adipokine secretion from adipose tissue may be involved in obesity‐related asthma, but it is unknown how adipokine levels relate to asthma characteristics. Plasma adipokines were measured in well‐characterized lean, overweight or obese patients with mild‐to‐moderate or severe asthma.

Mesenchymal Stem Cells From a Klinefelter Syndrome Patient: Functional Characterization and Therapeutic Implications

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cell therapy, particularly those utilizing mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs), is gaining traction as a therapeutic option for regenerative treatment in patients with limited therapeutic options. Although the safety of MSC‐based interventions is well established, uncertainties remain regarding how genetic abnormalities and ...

Impact of incretin analogues on lipid and lipoprotein metabolism in obesity and diabetes

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Incretin‐based therapies have gained momentum as a key strategy for reducing cardiovascular risk in individuals with obesity and/or type 2 diabetes (T2D). It remains unclear whether the cardiovascular benefits reflect a direct reduction in atherogenic lipoproteins—namely, low‐density lipoproteins (LDL), very low‐density lipoproteins (VLDL) and

YTHDF3 Enhances Osteogenic Differentiation of Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Osteoporosis by Promoting TBX19 Expression

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
In this study, OP‐BMSCs were successfully isolated from OVX osteoporotic rats. Mechanistic investigations revealed that the RNA‐binding protein YTHDF3 significantly upregulates Tbx19 expression by enhancing the stability of Tbx19 mRNA. Elevated Tbx19 levels, in turn, activate key osteogenic molecules, effectively promoting the differentiation of OP ...

Adipocyte‐specific ablation of plakoglobin in mice does not affect adiposity but results in sexual‐dimorphic effects on weight gain

Physiological Reports
The main transcriptional coactivator of the WNT pathway, β‐catenin, is a well‐established regulator of adipogenesis and fat expansion, but our knowledge of how other members of the catenin family participate in adipogenesis remains incomplete.

How the First 9 Months Shape the Rest of Your Life: The Impact of Gestational Diabetes on the Metabolic Future

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) represents far more than a transient glycaemic disorder: it is a sentinel metabolic event that unveils pre‐existing defects in β‐cell function and insulin action, with profound implications for both maternal and offspring cardiometabolic health across the lifespan.
