Does pretrigger echogenic endometrium in assisted reproductive technology cycles reflect raised serum progesterone level?

Journal of Human Reproductive Sciences, 2018
Background: Serum progesterone is the main hormone of the luteal phase. The hyperechoic pattern of the endometrium in the luteal phase is believed to be induced by raised serum progesterone.

Progesterone Enhances the Invasion of Trophoblast Cells by Activating PI3K/AKT Signaling Pathway to Prevent Preeclampsia

Cell Transplantation, 2023
We aimed to explore whether the effect of progesterone on preeclampsia via the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. First, we studied the role of progesterone in preeclampsia patients and HTR-8/Svneo cells by adding progesterone.

Dydrogesterone and norethisterone regulate expression of lipoprotein lipase and hormones-sensitive lipase in human subcutaneous abdominal adipocytes [PDF]

, 2007
Aim: In premenopausal women, hyper-androgenicity is associated with central obesity and an increased cardiovascular risk. We investigated the effects of dydrogesterone (DYD)(a non-androgenic progestogen) and norethisterone (NET)(an androgenic progestogen)

Molecular evidence of functional progesterone withdrawal in human myometrium

Nature Communications, 2016
Progesterone suppresses uterine contractility acting through its receptors (PRA/B). The mechanism by which human labour is initiated in the presence of elevated circulating progesterone has remained an enigma since Csapo first theorized of a functional ...

Long‐term prognosis is associated with residual disease after neoadjuvant systemic therapy but not with initial nodal status

BJS (British Journal of Surgery), EarlyView., 2020
This long‐term follow‐up study determined survival rates in a Swedish national cohort of 417 patients with breast cancer who all had neoadjuvant systemic therapy (NAST). Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) was performed before NAST in clinically node‐negative and after NAST in clinically node‐positive patients.

Ewe-lamb bonding behaviours at birth are affected by maternal undernutrition in pregnancy [PDF]

, 2003
Maternal undernutrition in pregnancy results in low birth-weights and impaired postnatal survival in sheep. Largely anecdotal evidence suggests that the expression of appropriate maternal and neonate behaviours may also be disrupted by undernutrition. In

Enhancing Small Molecule Sensing With Aptameric Functionalized Nano Devices

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Unveiling an ultra‐sensitive, non‐invasive neurotransmitter sensor. For the first time, a nanoscale sensor for detecting an important neurotransmitter was demonstrated using micro‐electromechanical systems (MEMS) technology. Our approach utilized field‐effect transistor (FET)‐based readout to enable pico‐molar detection of biomarkers in sweat.
