The paradox of pregnancy : an update on the immunology of early pregnancy [PDF]

, 2008
Pregnancy is an altered physiological state where an organism essentially foreign to the individual carrying it, grows, develops and at an appropriate time probably initiates a series of signals which lead to its safe expulsion from the woman's body. The

HIFU‐Driven Targeted Pyroptosis Therapy in Basal‐Like Breast Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a HIFU‐driven pyroptosis strategy for BLBC treatment. Combining HIFU with platelet‐membrane hybridized liposomes encapsulating mitoxantrone enhances tumor targeting and efficacy. The synergistic treatment modulates key epigenetic regulators and activates the pyroptotic pathway through ROS generation and inflammasome signaling ...

Progestins induce transcriptional activation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (Stat3) via a Jak- and Src-dependent mechanism in breast cancer cells [PDF]

, 2005
Interactions between steroid hormone receptors and signal transducer and activator of transcription (Stat)-mediated signaling pathways have already been described.

Serine/Threonine Kinase 33 as a Novel Target of Bufalin in Treatment of Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identified that STK33 may serve as a target of Bufalin, which induces the degradation of STK33 and inhibits the growth of TNBC. Furthermore, STK33 is highly expressed in TNBC and enhances TNBC cell proliferation by phosphorylating and stabilizing CCAR1.

Labor-associated gene expression in the human uterine fundus, lower segment, and cervix [PDF]

, 2006
Background Preterm labor, failure to progress, and postpartum hemorrhage are the common causes of maternal and neonatal mortality or morbidity. All result from defects in the complex mechanisms controlling labor, which coordinate changes in the ...

Disruption of Gut Microbiota‐Mediated De Novo NAD+ Synthesis Contributes to the Development of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that patients with PCOS exhibit altered gut microbial profiles, and FMT from PCOS patients induces PCOS‐like symptoms in mice. Specifically, gut dysbiosis reduces 3‐HAA levels in the context of PCOS. Administration of 3‐HAA to mice alleviates PCOS by promoting de novo NAD+ synthesis.

Developing a Personalized Cancer Nanovaccine Using Coxsackievirus‐Reprogrammed Cancer Cell Membranes for Enhanced Anti‐Tumor Immunity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A personalized nanovaccine combining PLGA‐encapsulated heat‐inactivated CVB3 and membranes from CVB3‐infected breast cancer cells stimulates potent antitumor immunity. It reduces immunosuppressive markers, enhances immune activation, and improves survival in vivo.

Senescence‐Inducing Therapy Sequential NIR‐II Mild Photothermal/Senolytic Therapy of Triple Negative Breast Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Targeting triple‐negative breast cancer remains challenging due to limited therapies and drug resistance. A sequential theranostic strategy combining palbociclib‐induced senescence (enhancing heat sensitivity via HSP70 downregulation) with an NIR‐II nanoplatform (IQ NPs) for mild photothermal therapy (PTT) and quercetin‐mediated senolysis is developed.

Sex steroids regulate skin pigmentation through nonclassical membrane-bound receptors

eLife, 2016
The association between pregnancy and altered cutaneous pigmentation has been documented for over two millennia, suggesting that sex hormones play a role in regulating epidermal melanocyte (MC) homeostasis.

Steroid Hormones and Endocrine Disruptors: Recent Advances in Receptor–Mediated Actions [PDF]

, 2017
It has been accepted that receptor-mediated action of steroid hormones depends on both the receptor and the hormonal level. The mechanism of transcription by steroid receptors is mediated by cofactors, which function as co-activators or co ...
