The CRL7FBXW8 Complex Controls the Mammary Stem Cell Compartment through Regulation of NUMB Levels

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In breast cancer (BC), NUMB loss of function (LOF) is common and mainly driven by protein hyper‐degradation. The CRL7FBXW8 complex is the E3 ligase responsible for NUMB degradation. Inhibition of CRL7FBXW8 in NUMB‐LOF BC cells restores NUMB levels, and decreases the number of cancer stem cells and tumorigenic ability in vivo. Targeting CRL7FBXW8 offers

Hypothalamic effects of progesterone on regulation of the pulsatile and surge release of luteinising hormone in female rats

Scientific Reports, 2017
Progesterone can block the oestradiol-induced GnRH/LH surge and inhibit LH pulse frequency. Recent studies reported that progesterone prevented premature LH surges during ovarian hyperstimulation in women. As the most potent stimulator of GnRH/LH release,

Effects of Levonorgestrel and progesterone on Oviductal physiology in mammals

Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2018
Background Our previous study indicated that emergency contraception, including levonorgestrel and progesterone, could lead to ectopic pregnancy following contraception failure. However, our understanding of the effects of levonorgestrel and progesterone

Activity of 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase associated with progesterone production in bovine granulosa cells cultured under different concentrations of serum, insulin-like growth factor I, and gonadotropin [PDF]

, 2014
Three-β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3β-HSD) is the enzyme responsible for progesterone production. This study aimed to determine whether 3β-HSD activity can be shown to reflect progesterone production by granulosa cells cultured under different serum

Engineered Tissue Models to Decode Host–Microbiota Interactions

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Host–Microbiota interactions in the human body. Created in BioRender. Ghezzi, C. (2025) https://BioRender.com/ihivskg. Abstract A mutualistic co‐evolution exists between the host and its associated microbiota in the human body. Bacteria establish ecological niches in various tissues of the body, locally influencing their physiology and functions, but ...

A novel therapeutic approach for treatment of catamenial epilepsy

Neurobiology of Disease, 2018
Many women with epilepsy experience perimenstrual seizure exacerbation, referred to as catamenial epilepsy. There is no effective treatment for this condition, proposed to result from withdrawal of neurosteroid-mediated effects of progesterone.

Progesterone and Follicle Stimulating Hormone interact and promote goat preantral follicles survival and development in vitro

Pesquisa Veterinária Brasileira, 2012
We investigated the effects of progesterone and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) on survival and growth of caprine preantral follicles. Pieces of ovarian tissue were cultured for 1 or 7 days in minimum essential medium (MEM) alone or containing ...

Peripheral and central mechanisms involved in hormonal control of male and female reproduction [PDF]

, 2016
Reproduction involves the integration of hormonal signals acting across multiple systems togenerate a synchronized physiological output. A critical component of reproduction is the luteinizinghormone (LH) surge, which is mediated by estradiol (E2) and ...

Very early administration of progesterone for acute traumatic brain injury.

New England Journal of Medicine, 2014
BACKGROUND Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major cause of death and disability worldwide. Progesterone has been shown to improve neurologic outcome in multiple experimental models and two early-phase trials involving patients with TBI.

Placental RTN3L‐dependent ER‐Phagy Contributes to Fetal Testicular Dysplasia Upon Environmental Stress

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Gestational environmental stress activates ER‐phagy by increasing placental Rtn3l mRNA N6‐methyladenosine modification, further inhibiting placental estradiol synthesis and contributing to fetal testicular dysplasia. This study demonstrates the early prevention and treatment of adult male infertility from the perspective of fetal‐derived diseases ...
