Role of SoxE transcription factors in development and disease

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Sox8, Sox9, and Sox10 arose by multiple rounds of genome duplications from a single SoxE gene in ancestral vertebrates. In this review, we will briefly discuss the molecular structure and function of SoxE transcription factors and their evolutionary origin. We will then discuss their expression, function, and developmental disorders.

Bromelain‐Rich Pineapple Extract for the Treatment of Pediatric Patients With Orchiepididymitis: A Randomized Clinical Pilot Study

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, Volume 69, Issue 19, October 2025.
From pineapple byproducts to a pharmaceutical formulation. ABSTRACT A freeze‐dried pineapple extract—Brome‐Inf, from pineapple by‐products of industrial rings production, was enriched in bioactive polypeptides and bromelain by membrane ultrafiltration. Orchiepididymitis (OE), a painful pediatric pathology, was treated with this extract. A pilot, double‐

Tracing the Evolution of Sex Hormones and Receptor‐Mediated Immune Microenvironmental Differences in Prostate and Bladder Cancers: From Embryonic Development to Disease

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 13, April 3, 2025.
Prostate and bladder cancers activate genes and pathways similar to those in the developmental stage by aggregating and analyzing current data. In this process, sex hormones and their receptors maybe a key role in causing and reversing the “cold” and “hot” immune tumor phenotypes, potentially enhancing the immune response.
