Menopause leads to elevated expression of macrophage-associated genes in the aging frontal cortex: rat and human studies identify strikingly similar changes. [PDF]
BACKGROUND The intricate interactions between the immune, endocrine and central nervous systems shape the innate immune response of the brain. We have previously shown that estradiol suppresses expression of immune genes in the frontal cortex of ...

Ovarian steroids regulate tachykinin and tachykinin receptor gene expression in the mouse uterus
Background In the mouse uterus, pregnancy is accompanied by changes in tachykinin and tachykinin receptor gene expression and in the uterotonic effects of endogenous tachykinins. In this study we have investigated whether changes in tachykinin expression

Bisphenol B Exposure Induces Miscarriage by Suppressing Migration/Invasion and Migrasome Formation
BPB (Bisphenol B) exposure up‐regulates ER (estrogen receptor) levels, enhances its interactions with the lnc‐HZ04 promoter region, and thus promotes ER‐mediated lnc‐HZ04 transcription. Subsequently, lnc‐HZ04 suppresses TCF4 (transcription factor 4)‐mediated PKCA (protein kinase C alpha) transcription and subsequently suppresses migration/invasion and ...

Sabotaged Integral HSC Heterogeneity Underlies Essential Thrombocythemia Development
Single‐cell RNA sequencing (scRNA‐seq) maps how distinct driver mutations remodel hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) programs across essential thrombocythemia (ET). Comparative analysis uncovers both shared and subtype‐specific molecular signatures, identifies a triple‐negative (TN)‐associated HSC population enriched with malignant traits, and reveals the ...

Estradiol activates PI3K/Akt/GSK3 pathway under chronic neurodegenerative conditions triggered by perinatal asphyxia [PDF]
Perinatal asphyxia (PA) remains as one of the most important causes of short-term mortality, psychiatric and neurological disorders in children, without an effective treatment.

Understanding the role of estrogen in the development of benign prostatic hyperplasia
Introduction: Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a non-malignant enlargement of the prostate that affects ageing men. As the number of men affected by this condition will only continue to grow with the aging population, finding new strategies and new ...

Triple‐negative breast cancer exhibits variable sensitivity to PRMT5 inhibition. Basal interferon signaling is identified as a key biomarker of response. PARP inhibition with olaparib induces IFN signaling, sensitizing resistant TNBC cells to PRMT5 inhibitors.

In PCOS patients with hyperandrogenemia, decreased ferritin heavy chain 1 (FTH1) causes Fe2⁺ overload and ferroptosis in trophoblasts. Androgens induce FTH1 protein degradation via AR‐LAMP2A‐mediated chaperone‐mediated autophagy pathway, leading to placental development disruption and early pregnancy loss. Metformin mitigates androgen‐induced placental

The Association between Vitamin D Receptor Expression and Prolonged Overall Survival in Breast Cancer. [PDF]
Summary In this study, we analyzed vitamin D receptor (VDR) expression and survival in a breast cancer patient cohort of 82 breast cancer patients. Immunohistochemical analysis was possible in 91.5% of the patients (75/82). Staining was evaluated using
