Prediction of aromatase inhibitory activity using the efficient linear method (ELM) [PDF]

, 2015
Aromatase inhibition is an effective treatment strategy for breast cancer. Currently, several in silico methods have been developed for the prediction of aromatase inhibitors (AIs) using artificial neural network (ANN) or support vector machine (SVM). In

Removal and Biodegradation of 17β-Estradiol and Diethylstilbestrol by the Freshwater Microalgae Raphidocelis subcapitata

International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2018
Natural steroidal and synthetic non-steroidal estrogens such as 17β-estradiol (E2) and diethylstilbestrol (DES) have been found in natural water, which can potentially endanger public health and aquatic ecosystems.

Recent Perspectives on Phytochemical Profile, Pharmacological Activities, and Industrial Applications of Guava (Psidium guajava)

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Psidium guajava leaves contain potent bioactive compounds like quercetin, myricetin, and triterpenoids that show antioxidant, antidiabetic, anti‐inflammatory, and anticancer effects. They act by modulating NF‐κB, PPARγ, and α‐glucosidase and by inducing apoptosis and cell cycle arrest.

A review of the impact of micro‐ and nanoplastics on female reproduction: What we know and gaps in knowledge

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Micro‐and nanoplastics (MNPs) are breakdown products of plastics, and humans are exposed to these particles through air, water, food, and soil. There is a growing concern that human exposure to MNPs negatively impacts health. In this review we will discuss the potential health impact of MNPs on ovarian function and the hypothalamic–pituitary ...

Endometrial Stromal Cell Senescence: A Non‐Negligible Factor in Recurrent Pregnancy Loss

iMetaMed, EarlyView.
As populations age, links between female reproductive aging and infertility are increasingly evident. Cellular senescence, characterized by near‐irreversible cell‐cycle arrest and accumulation of damage, can impair tissue function. In the endometrium, aberrant senescence of endometrial stromal cells (EnSCs) may compromise receptivity, hinder embryo ...

Organoids and organ‐on‐a‐chip models for investigating the pathophysiology of the human reproductive system

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Organoids and organ‐on‐a‐chips are advancing reproductive system research. In the female reproductive system, applications include cancer organoid models, placental chips, and hormone simulation models. For the male reproductive system, research focuses on drug resistance mechanisms, co‐culture platforms, and infertility studies. These refined in vitro
