KLK7 overexpression promotes an aggressive phenotype and facilitates peritoneal dissemination in colorectal cancer cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
KLK7, a tissue kallikrein‐related peptidase, is elevated in advanced colorectal cancer and associated with shorter survival. High KLK7 levels in ascites correlate with peritoneal metastasis. In mice, KLK7 overexpression increases metastasis. In vitro, KLK7 enhances cancer cell proliferation, migration, adhesion, and spheroid formation, driving ...

dUTPase is essential in zebrafish development and possesses several single‐nucleotide variants with pronounced structural and functional consequences

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
dUTPases are involved in balancing the appropriate nucleotide pools. We showed that dUTPase is essential for normal development in zebrafish. The different zebrafish genomes contain several single‐nucleotide variations (SNPs) of the dut gene. One of the dUTPase variants displayed drastically lower protein stability and catalytic efficiency as compared ...

Dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) regulates trophoblast syncytialization through organelle stress–induced cellular senescence

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The inhibition of mitochondrial dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) impairs syncytialization and induces cellular senescence via mitochondrial and endoplasmic reticulum stress in human trophoblast stem cells, elevating sFlt1/PlGF levels, a hallmark of placental dysfunction in hypertensive disorders of pregnancy.

Endocrine Disruptors

open access: yesGüncel Pediatri, 2008
Endocrine disruptors are of special interest because they mimic, block, or in some way alter the activity of endogenous chemicals that are synthesized by the endocrine system. Besides many other organs, they especially affect the urinary system and the thyroid glands.

Recurrent laryngeal nerve monitoring by flexible laryngoscopy during thyroid radiofrequency ablation in the awake patient

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology
ObjectiveAlthough radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a safe and effective non-surgical treatment for benign thyroid nodules, injury to the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN), is a potential and feared complication. Intermittent voice checks have been proposed

The Science of Endocrine Disruption - Will It Change the Scope of Products Liability Claims? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The FDA Food Quality Protection Act of 1996 and amendments to the EPA Safe Drinking Water Act require the EPA Administrator, in consultation with the Secretary of Health and Human Services, to develop a screening program for endocrine disrupting effects.
