ABSTRACT Age‐related bone loss is a failure of balanced bone turnover and diminished skeletal mechanoadaptation. Estrogen receptors, ERα and ERβ, play critical roles in osteoprotective regulation activated by estrogen and mechanical signals. Previous studies mainly focused on ERα and showed that osteocyte‐ERα (Ot‐ERα) regulated trabecular, but not ...

Deciphering the skeletal interoceptive circuitry to control bone homeostasis
This review introduces the skeletal interoceptive circuitry, covering the ascending signals from bone tissues to the brain (sensors), the central neural circuits that integrate this information and dispatch commands (CPU), and the descending pathways that regulate bone homeostasis (effectors).

Dietary yolk supplementation decreases rates of yolk deposition in Japanese quail
Dietary supplementation with egg yolk decreases the rate of yolk deposition in quail. Quail with high body condition indices deposit yolk more slowly. Abstract Generation of egg yolk by birds requires the synthesis and deposition of large amounts of protein and lipid, and is often accompanied by the incorporation of additional physiological mediators ...

Prognostic markers in quadruple negative breast cancer
Quadruple-negative breast cancer (QNBC) presents with negative expression of estrogen, progesterone, and androgen receptors and of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2. This BC subtype has the worst prognosis. In QNBC, there is a

Correlation between the presence of the nuclear AR-V7 androgen receptor and clinical evolution of prostate cancer: in vitro analysis of a combination of compounds targeting PI3K [PDF]
Introduzione: PCa è una malattia multiforme e biologicamente molto eterogenea. Diversi meccanismi chiave nella progressione della malattia da androgeno-dipendente ad androgeno-indipendente (CRCP) possono essere attribuiti ad alterazione nella via di ...

Accuracy of direct gradient sensing by cell-surface receptors [PDF]
Chemotactic cells of eukaryotic organisms are able to accurately sense shallow chemical concentration gradients using cell-surface receptors. This sensing ability is remarkable as cells must be able to spatially resolve small fractional differences in the numbers of particles randomly arriving at cell-surface receptors by diffusion.

Neutrophils in cancer: At the crucial crossroads of anti‐tumor and pro‐tumor
Abstract Neutrophils are important components of the immune system and play a key role in defending against pathogenic infections and responding to inflammatory cues, including cancer. Their dysregulation indicates potential disease risk factors. However, their functional importance in disease progression has often been underestimated due to their ...

Androgen receptor dysfunction in human androgen insensitivity
The androgen insensitivity syndromes comprise a spectrum of phenotypic abnormalities in male sex differentiation and development that result from target tissue resistance to androgen action due to molecular lesions in the X-chromosome-linked androgen receptor gene.
