Melanoma Cells Exposed to Clomiphene Citrate Respond With Cell Cycle Arrest and Reduced Invasiveness

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Epidemiological studies have suggested that clomiphene citrate (CC) exposure may increase the risk of malignant melanoma, but mechanisms are unknown. We investigated the effects of CC on melanoma cell line A375. Cells were treated with CC at 2, 20, 200, and 2000 ng/mL, followed by assessment of cell viability and metabolism, cell cycle ...

Bisphenol Analog‐Induced Cytotoxicity: Unraveling Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) Stress and Apoptotic Pathways

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bisphenol A (BPA) is increasingly replaced by structural analogs, yet their safety remains insufficiently characterized. This study investigated whether BPA and selected analogs, bisphenol AF (BPAF), bisphenol AP (BPAP), bisphenol P (BPP), and bisphenol E (BPE), induce cytotoxicity through activation of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and ...

Analytical and Workflow Performance of a High‐Throughput Chemiluminescent Immunoassay System in a Clinical Laboratory

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
Analytical and operational performance evaluation of the DxI 9000 Access Immunoassay Analyzer in a clinical laboratory in Taiwan. ABSTRACT Background Increasing test volumes and shorter turnaround time (TAT) requirements, particularly in acute‐care settings, challenge clinical laboratories to maintain accurate immunoassay testing.

Steroidopathies and hormonal imbalance in children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder

open access: yesJCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental condition with a multifactorial etiology, many aspects of which remain unclear. Emerging evidence suggests a potential association between ASD and clinical manifestations resulting from hormonal imbalances, henceforth named “steroidopathies.” The present study aims to ...

Estradiol replacement attenuates alendronate‐associated adverse effects on alveolar bone repair in ovariectomized rats

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Sodium alendronate (ALN) is widely used to treat postmenopausal osteoporosis, but both estrogen deficiency and antiresorptive therapy may impair alveolar bone repair after tooth extraction. A clinically relevant but insufficiently explored scenario involves estrogen‐deficient individuals receiving hormone replacement therapy (HRT ...

Higher Increases in Plasma n‐3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids Following Fish Oil Supplementation in Postmenopausal Females Compared With Age‐Matched Males

open access: yesLipids, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The effects of fish oil supplementation on omega‐3 (n‐3) polyunsaturated fatty acids, particularly intermediates between eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, 20:5n‐3) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6n‐3), that may provide valuable metabolic information, have not been fully characterized in older populations.

Polymerized Pro‐Estrogen Microneedles via Two Photon Polymerization

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Acrylic pro‐drugs of 17β‐estradiol were subjected to spatially controlled two‐photon polymerization to create bespoke microneedle geometries with potential biomedical applications for long‐term transdermal hormone delivery. ABSTRACT Two‐photon polymerization (TPP) is a powerful technique to create microscale structures with high precision, offering ...

The Endocrine Disrupting Compounds Bisphenol‐A and α‐Zeranol Mimic the Estrogen Transcriptional Program to Promote Proliferation and Stemness in Breast Cancer Cells

open access: yesMolecular Carcinogenesis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Excessive activation of the estrogen receptor (ER) drives proliferation, progression, and the formation of breast cancer stem cells (CSCs) in ER‐positive breast cancer. Estrogenic endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs) found in plastics, water, and food are also able to bind to the ER.

Increased expression of aromatase after focal cerebral ischemia: Relevance to neuroprotection and functional recovery

open access: yesNeuroprotection, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Aromatase is the key enzyme in the biosynthesis of 17β‐estradiol, the most potent estrogen, which has pleiotropic neuroprotective properties. Aromatase levels increase in the brain after stroke, and its gene variants increase susceptibility to stroke. This study aims to determine whether aromatase overexpression improves stroke outcome and
