RIPK4 function interferes with melanoma cell adhesion and metastasis
RIPK4 promotes melanoma growth and spread. RIPK4 levels increase as skin lesions progress to melanoma. CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated deletion of RIPK4 causes melanoma cells to form less compact spheroids, reduces their migratory and invasive abilities and limits tumour growth and dissemination in mouse models.

We aimed to develop deep learning (DL) models to detect protein expression in immunohistochemically (IHC) stained tissue-sections, and to compare their accuracy and performance with manually scored clinically relevant proteins in common cancer types.Five

Hippo pathway at the crossroads of stemness and therapeutic resistance in breast cancer
Dysregulation of the Hippo pathway drives nuclear accumulation of YAP/TAZ, activating stemness‐related transcriptional programs that sustain breast cancer stemness and fuel therapeutic resistance across subtypes, underscoring Hippo signaling as a targetable vulnerability. Figure created and edited with BioRender.com.

Estrogen Signaling in ERα-Negative Breast Cancer: ERβ and GPER
Estrogen receptors are important regulators of the growth of breast tumors. Three different receptors for estrogens have been identified in breast tumors, two nuclear receptors, ERα and ERβ, and a G-protein coupled estrogen receptor 1 (GPER) that ...

Loss of angiotensin II receptor expression in dopamine neurons in Parkinson’s disease correlates with pathological progression and is accompanied by increases in Nox4- and 8-OH guanosine-related nucleic acid oxidation and caspase-3 activation [PDF]
In rodent models of Parkinsons disease (PD), dopamine neuron loss is accompanied by increased expression of angiotensin II (AngII), its type 1 receptor (AT1), and NADPH oxidase (Nox) in the nigral dopamine neurons and microglia.

A Study of Cytoplasmic and Nuclear Estrogen and Progestin Receptors in Gynecologic Neoplasms
A rapid method for simultaneous preparation of cytosol and nuclear estrogen (E) and progestin (P) receptors and their in vitro determination is described. The method was applied to several uterine or ovarian surgical specimens to evaluate their steroid hormone "dependence". The results suggest that low cytoplasmic E receptor levels (ERc) are associated

Androgen directs apparent cytoplasmic and nuclear distribution of rat cardiovascular androgen receptors. [PDF]
We used either the synthetic androgen R1881 (methyltrienolone) or 5 alpha-dihydrotestosterone (5 alpha-DHT) to characterize androgen receptors in rat aortic and myocardial cytoplasmic and nuclear preparations. Relative steroid specificity studies established that only androgens were effective inhibitors of R1881 (cytoplasmic) or 5 alpha-DHT (nuclear ...

KDM7A and KDM1A inhibition suppresses tumour promoting pathways in prostate cancer
Treatment resistance is a major challenge for patients with advanced prostate cancer. This study examined an alternative approach to target the major prostate cancer‐promoting pathway by targeting epigenetic factors, whose levels are higher in tumours.

Limited Proteolysis of Cytoplasmic and Nuclear Uterine Estradiol Receptors Yields Identical Estradiol‐Binding Fragments [PDF]
Limited tryptic hydrolysis of the estradiol cytoplasmic receptor from calf uterus has been demonstrated to yield in a high‐salt buffer a stable estradiol‐binding molecule with the following characteristics: sedimentation coefficient 4,0 ± 0.1 S; Stokes radius 3.5 ± 0.05 nm; molecular weight 60000 (for an assumed v̄ value of 0.73 ml g−1) and frictional ...
