Genetic polymorphisms and metabolism of endocrine disruptors in cancer susceptibility
Cadernos de Saúde Pública, 2002 Epidemiological studies have estimated that approximately 80% of all cancers are related to environmental factors. Individual cancer susceptibility can be the result of several host factors, including differences in metabolism, DNA repair, altered ...

KRAS/ABHD17C/ALOX15B Axis Promotes Pancreatic Cancer Progression via Ferroptosis Evasion
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Phosphorylation of ABHD17C induced by KRASmut/ERK signaling facilitates ALOX15B depalmitoylation and degradation via the CUL4/DDB1/DCAF10 complex, thereby enabling KRASmut‐PDAC cell to evade ferroptosis. Methyl protodioscin inhibits KRASmut‐PDAC progression by disrupting the ABHD17C/ALOX15B interaction and inducing ferroptosis, which represents a ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Indole‐3‐acetic acid (3‐IAA) derived from gut P. distasonis binds to AhR in bladder cancer cells and downregulates FASN transcription, thereby increasing sensitivity to ferroptosis and suppressing the development of bladder tumors. Specifically, 3‐IAA treatment leads to an increase in the proportion of PC/PE‐PUFAs and a decrease in the proportions of ...

A theory for the tissue specificity of BRCA1/2 related and other hereditary cancers [PDF]
, 2010 Women who inherit a defective BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene have risks for breast and ovarian cancer that are so high and seem so selective that many mutation carriers choose to have prophylactic surgery. There has been much conjecture to explain such apparently
