α2,3‐Sialyltransferase (ST3Gal1) regulates endometrioid‐type epithelial ovarian cancer cell migration and invasion via VEGF‐R2/JAK2/STAT3 signaling cascades

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To investigate the role of ST3 β‐galactoside α‐2,3‐sialyltransferase 1 (ST3Gal1) and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGF‐R2) in endometrioid‐type epithelial ovarian cancer (E‐OC) because aberrant α2,3‐sialylation mediated by ST3Gal1 and VEGF‐R2‐related angiogenesis is linked with tumor progression. Methods ST3Gal1 and

The global status of human milk banking

Maternal & Child Nutrition
AbstractHuman milk provides essential nutrition for infants and holds many health benefits for infants and mothers. When a mother's own milk is not available for her infant, the World Health Organization recommends feeding donor human milk (DHM) from a human milk banking facility.

Mother Earth: Climate Justice, Infant Feeding Decisions, and Intimacy

Journal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human infants require milk. This can be parental milk provided directly from the parent's body (known as breastfeeding, chestfeeding, or nursing), expressed human milk, or infant formula milk. This article contributes to the literature on the ethics of infant feeding in two ways. First, it brings recent research on the climate impact of infant

Air Pollution Quinones Impair Intestinal Barrier Integrity and Endoplasmic Reticulum in Differentiated Caco‐2 Cells

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Particulate matter (PM) is a major global health threat, linked to millions of deaths annually. Beyond inhalation, PM components reach the gastrointestinal tract through the mucociliary escalator or contaminated food and water. Among PM's organic fraction, redox‐active quinones such as 1,2‐naphthoquinone (NQ) and 9,10‐phenanthrenequinone (PQ ...

Toll‐Like Receptors in the Mechanism of Hexabromocyclododecane‐Induced Production of Pro‐Inflammatory Cytokines

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD), a brominated flame retardant, has raised increasing health concerns due to its bioaccumulation in human tissues and its ability to induce proinflammatory cytokines. Interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β), interleukin‐6 (IL‐6), and tumor necrosis factor‐α (TNF‐α) are major mediators of inflammation, and their chronic elevation ...
