The Association between Human Epididymis Secretory Protein 4 and Metabolic Syndrome
Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2022 Individuals with metabolic syndrome (MetS) are known to have an increased risk of carcinogenesis. Human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) is a tumor marker and prognostic factor for epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC) patients. However, no studies have evaluated the association between MetS and HE4 levels.

Current clinical application of serum biomarkers to detect and monitor ovarian cancer – update
Menopause Review, 2022 In recent decades many potential serum biomarkers have been assessed in the diagnosis of ovarian cancer. Except cancer antigen 125 (CA125) and human epididymis protein 4 (HE4), none of them have been applied to everyday clinical practice.

Identification of a novel human E-Cadherin splice variant andassessment of its effects upon EMT-related events [PDF]
, 2018 Epithelial Cadherin (E-cadherin) is involved in calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion and signal transduction. The E-cadherin decrease/loss is a hallmark of Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition (EMT), a key event in tumor progression.

Identification of sex hormone-binding globulin in the human hypothalamus [PDF]
, 2005 Gonadal steroids are known to influence hypothalamic functions through both genomic and non-genomic pathways. Sex hormone-binding globulin ( SHBG) may act by a non-genomic mechanism independent of classical steroid receptors.
