ErbB2 signaling in breast cancer : the role of ErbB, Akt and ShcA phosphorylation [PDF]

, 2004
Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women and is estimated to account for more than 200,000 new cancer cases in the United States in the year 2002. It now represents the second leading cause of death (40,000) from cancer in women.

17α-Ethynyl-5α-androstane-3α, 17β-diol Treatment of MNU-Induced Mammary Cancer in Rats

International Journal of Breast Cancer, 2011
N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU) induces estrogen-dependent mammary tumors in female Lewis rats. We explored the antineoplastic activity of a synthetic androstane derivative, 17α-ethynyl-5α-androstane-3α, 17β-diol (HE3235), as a single agent or in ...

Heat Shock Protein 90: From Molecular Chaperone Function to Therapeutic Targeting in Malignancies

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this review, an integrated conceptual framework linking HSP90's molecular chaperone functions to its pathological roles in cancer is proposed. HSP90 serves as a central node that integrates oncogenic signaling, buffers proteotoxic stress, maintains cancer stem cell plasticity, and shapes tumor‐immune interactions, all of which converge to drive ...

Membrane Fusion‐Mediated Cytosolic Delivery of Threose Nucleic Acids via Homotypic Nanoparticles Overcomes Drug Resistance in Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study introduces a biomimetic “nanofusion” platform that integrates the biostability of threose nucleic acids (TNA) with homotypic cell‐membrane cloaking to combat drug‐resistant TNBC. By leveraging a non‐canonical membrane‐fusion pathway for direct cytosolic delivery, the platform bypasses endosomal sequestration. To achieve potent AKT2 silencing

An Integrative Strategy Delineates Modular Metabolic Remodeling and Potential Therapeutic Targets Across Metabolic Diseases

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An integrative single‐cell atlas across multiple metabolic diseases reveals coordinated metabolic modules and disease‐shared versus disease‐specific pathway activities. By systematically comparing scoring strategies, a robust RankAve framework is established. Coupled with network analysis and drug‐target prediction, this resource uncovers cross‐disease

Identification of the estrogen receptor GPER in neoplastic and non-neoplastic human testes

Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2011
Background Estrogen signaling is mediated by estrogen receptor beta isoforms in normal and neoplastic human testes. Recently, a G-protein-coupled-receptor (GPER) has been suggested as being involved in rapid responses to estrogens in different normal and

Beta 3 Adrenergic Receptor Activation Rescues Metabolic Dysfunction in Female Estrogen Receptor Alpha-Null Mice

Frontiers in Physiology, 2019
Metabolic disease risk escalates following menopause. The mechanism is not fully known, but likely involves reduced signaling through estrogen receptor alpha (ERα), which is highly expressed in brown and white adipose tissue (BAT and WAT).Objective: Test

Posthumously Diagnosed Myhre Syndrome Presenting With Pleural Remodeling and Endometrial Cancer

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Myhre syndrome (OMIM 139210) is a genetic condition defined by neurodevelopmental disability, characteristic facial features, and multisystem proliferative fibrosis. While various types of lung disease have been reported, pleural remodeling leading to restrictive lung disease has not yet been described.

Cardiovascular roles of estrogen receptors: insights gained from knockout models

, 2003
The effects of estrogen are mediated through two functionally distinct receptors, estrogen receptor alpha (ER- alpha ), and estrogen receptor beta (ER- beta ), both of which are expressed in the cardiovascular system.
