Estradiol and testosterone levels in patients undergoing partial hepatectomy - A possible signal for hepatic regeneration? [PDF]

, 1989
In five adult male patients undergoing a 40-60% partial hepatectomy, serum sex hormone levels before and after hepatic resection were determined. Blood was drawn immediately prior to each surgical procedure and at specified time points postoperatively ...

Single‐Cell Atlas Reveals Tumorigenic Profiles and Immune Dynamics of Adrenal Incidentalomas

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Single‐cell RNA sequencing reveals cellular heterogeneity in adrenal incidentalomas, identifying distinct tumor cell populations. Clusterin is recognized as a biomarker for adrenocortical tumors, correlating with established markers. MYCN‐positive clusters in pheochromocytomas indicated poorer survival.

Structure and dynamics of dynorphin peptide and its receptor [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
Dynorphin is a neuropeptide involved in pain, addiction and mood regulation. It exerts its activity by binding to the kappa opioid receptor (KOP) which belongs to the large family of G-protein coupled receptors. The dynorphin peptide was discovered in 1975, while its receptor was cloned in 1993.

DAPK3 is Essential for DBP‐Induced Autophagy of Mouse Leydig Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study has confirmed that death‐associated protein kinase 3 (DAPK3) is essential for dibutyl phthalate (DBP)‐induced autophagy of mouse Leydig cells, and is regulated by both transcription factor specific protein 2 (Sp2) and parkin RBR E3 ubiquitin‐protein ligase (PRKN), and melatonin can alleviate DBP‐induced autophagy of the cells.

Identification and Biological Evaluation of a Novel CLK4 Inhibitor Targeting Alternative Splicing in Pancreatic Cancer Using Structure‐Based Virtual Screening

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Pancreatic cancer is a highly aggressive malignancy with limited treatment options. CLK4 regulates alternative splicing, contributing to cancer progression. This study establishes a computational model to identify CLK4 inhibitors, leading to compound 150441 (IC50: 21.4 nm).

Sex Hormones and Their Receptors Regulate Liver Energy Homeostasis

International Journal of Endocrinology, 2015
The liver is one of the most essential organs involved in the regulation of energy homeostasis. Hepatic steatosis, a major manifestation of metabolic syndrome, is associated with imbalance between lipid formation and breakdown, glucose production and ...

Androgen receptor-dependent and -independent mechanisms driving prostate cancer progression: Opportunities for therapeutic targeting from multiple angles. [PDF]

, 2016
Despite aggressive treatment for localized cancer, prostate cancer (PC) remains a leading cause of cancer-related death for American men due to a subset of patients progressing to lethal and incurable metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC).

Transient Interdomain Interactions Modulate the Monomeric Structural Ensemble and Self‐Assembly of Huntingtin Exon 1

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Polyglutamine (polyQ) tract expansion (≥ 36 amino acids) within the N‐terminal region of the Huntingtin protein (Httex1) causes Huntington's disease (HD), for which the underlying causes are not well‐understood. The authors performed computer simulations to understand the cause of HD at the molecular level.

The androgen receptor and signal-transduction pathways in hormone-refractory prostate cancer. Part 2: androgen-receptor cofactors and bypass pathways [PDF]

, 2005
Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer related deaths in men from the western world. Treatment of prostate cancer has relied on androgen deprivation therapy for the past 50 years.
