Converting lignin into long‐chain fatty acids with the electro‐Fenton reaction
A new technology via the three‐phase three‐dimensional electro‐Fenton reaction was employed for the first time to convert lignin or its derived aromatics. The yields of palmitic acid and octadecanoic acid from lignin reached 138.41 and 112.31 mg/g, respectively.

Radioimmunoassay of 2-hydroxyestrone in urine
Abstract Catechol estrogens such as 2-OH estrone are interesting estrogen metabolites formed in several human tissues and excreted in urine. We developed and thoroughly validated a radioimmunoassay for urinary 2-OH estrone that has several advantages over published RIAs.

Experimental studies have shown that two main estrogen metabolites hydroxylated by CYP1A1 and CYP1B1 in the breast differentially affect breast cell proliferation and carcinogenesis. Although 16α-hydroxyestrone (16αOHE1) exerts estrogenic activity through covalent estrogen receptor (ER) binding, 2-hydroxyestrone (2OHE1) presumably has antiestrogenic ...

Tissue-selective effects of continuous release of 2-hydroxyestrone and 16alpha-hydroxyestrone on bone, uterus and mammary gland in ovariectomized growing rats [PDF]
2-Hydroxyestrone (2-OHE(1)) and 16alpha-hydroxyestrone (16alpha-OHE(1)) have been reported to be risk factors for negative bone balance and breast cancer, respectively. The roles of these two metabolites of estrone as estrogen agonists or antagonists with respect to estrogen target tissues, or both, are poorly defined.

Cytochrome P450 1A1 influences obesity‐induced pulmonary hypertension
Background and Purpose The contribution of obesity to pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) pathophysiology remains poorly understood. Adipose tissue synthesises estrogens via cytochrome P450 (CYP) 19A1 (aromatase), whereas circulating estrogens are metabolised in the lung by CYP1A1.

Single‐cell transcriptomics reveals that the human retina expresses a broad repertoire of steroid hormone biosynthesis and estrogen signalling genes. Functional validation in retinal explants shows that local estrogen synthesis is neuroprotective, preventing photoreceptor death and limiting microglial activation. Abstract Steroid hormones, particularly

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a progressive and life‐threatening disease with limited treatment options. Sex differences are apparent in PAH, specifically in the pathophysiology, prognoses and pharmacological responses of patients. Inflammation and its resolution, which often differ between sexes, are dysregulated in chronic inflammatory ...

PDIA4 is significantly upregulated in response to nutrient overload in pancreatic β‐cells, resulting in aberrant ROS production, β‐cell failure, and diabetes. PDIA4 facilitates cancer development by inhibiting caspase‐mediatedcell death in cancer and promoting VEGF‐mediated protumoral immunity andangiogenesis in the tumor microenvironment, highlighting

The catechol estrogen, 4-hydroxyestrone, has tissue-specific estrogen actions [PDF]
Recent data indicate that the catechol estrogen, 2-hydroxyestrone (2-OHE(1)), has no effect on any target tissue including bone, whereas 16 alpha-hydroxyestrone (16 alpha-OHE(1)) exerts tissue-selective estrogen agonist activity. The effect of the catechol estrogen, 4-hydroxyestrone (4-OHE(1)), putatively associated with tumorigenesis, has not been ...
