Adaptaquin is selectively toxic to glioma stem cells through disruption of iron and cholesterol metabolism

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Adaptaquin selectively kills glioma stem cells while sparing differentiated brain cells. Transcriptomic and proteomic analyses show Adaptaquin disrupts iron and cholesterol homeostasis, with iron chelation amplifying cytotoxicity via cholesterol depletion, mitochondrial dysfunction, and elevated reactive oxygen species.

Immune Aspects and Myometrial Actions of Progesterone and CRH in Labor

Clinical and Developmental Immunology, 2012
Progesterone and corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) have a critical role in pregnancy and labor, as changes related to these hormones are crucial for the transition from myometrial quiescence to contractility.

Therapeutic effects of progesterone and its metabolites in traumatic brain injury may involve non-classical signaling mechanisms

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2013
Traumatic brain injury is an important and costly medical problem for which no clinically proven treatment currently exists. Studies in rodents and humans have shown beneficial effects of progesterone (P4) on both mortality and functional outcomes ...

Characterizing epithelial‐mesenchymal transition‐linked heterogeneity in breast cancer circulating tumor cells at a single‐cell level

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In over 50% of non‐metastatic breast cancer patients, circulating tumor cells (CTCs) along the whole epithelial‐mesenchymal transition spectrum are detected. Total CTC number and individual phenotypes relate to aggressive disease characteristics, including lymph node involvement and higher tumor proliferation. At the single‐cell level, mesenchymal CTCs

Special aspects of steroid hormone receptors’ expression in cases of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia depending on the papillomavirus infection progression in women with infertility

Regulatory Mechanisms in Biosystems, 2020
The relevance of the study is contingent on insufficient study of the correlation between the reception of uterine cervix steroid hormones in cases of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and the level of human papilloma virus load in women with ...

3D In Vitro Models of Breast Cancer: Current Challenges and Future Prospects Toward Recapitulating the Microenvironment and Mimicking Key Processes

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.
In vitro cancer models are advantageous for studying important processes such as tumorigenesis, cancer growth, invasion, and metastasis. The complexity and biological relevance increase depending on the model structure, organization, and composition of materials and cells.

Long‐term prognosis is associated with residual disease after neoadjuvant systemic therapy but not with initial nodal status

BJS (British Journal of Surgery), EarlyView., 2020
This long‐term follow‐up study determined survival rates in a Swedish national cohort of 417 patients with breast cancer who all had neoadjuvant systemic therapy (NAST). Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) was performed before NAST in clinically node‐negative and after NAST in clinically node‐positive patients.

Progesterone and progesterone receptors in breast cancer: past, present, and future

Опухоли женской репродуктивной системы
The history of progesterone and progesterone receptors (PR) in breast cancer is as great, as controversial. In this review, we summarize the early history of PR research in breast cancer, debunk the myth that progesterone causes cancer, discuss recent ...

Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Phagocytes are essential to a functional immune system, and their behavior defines disease outcomes. Engineered particles offer a strategic opportunity to target phagocytes, harnessing inflammatory modulation in disease. By tuning features like size, shape, and surface, these systems can modulate immune responses and improve targeted treatment for a ...
