Cardiometabolic Protein Profile Changes During Gender‐Affirming Hormone Therapy: A Prospective Clinical Study

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk is elevated in transgender individuals during gender‐affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) with expected different mechanisms between T‐ and E2‐based GAHT. We investigated prospective changes in cardiometabolic proteins relating to complement, inflammation, and transport during GAHT.

Lactate and Lactylation: What We Know and What We Expect in Tumour Progression

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Lactate and lactylation in cancer cells have been shown to accelerate tumour development in various ways, including stemness generation, metabolic dysregulation, cell death, chemotherapy resistance, and cell cycle disorder. In addition, lactate and lactylation promote angiogenesis and create an immunosuppressive microenvironment, which promotes tumour ...

Histological manifestations of vitamin A toxicity in the liver

Histopathology, EarlyView.
Analysing clinicopathological data from 1960 to 2025, this study characterizes the spectrum of liver injury associated with chronic vitamin A toxicity. Hepatic stellate cell hypertrophy/hyperplasia and sinusoidal fibrosis emerge as the predominant features, providing a morphological basis for diagnosing vitamin A hepatotoxicity.

Regulation by FSH of the dynamic expression of retinol-binding protein 4 in the mouse ovary

Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2018
Background Ovarian retinoid homeostasis plays an important role in the physiological function of the ovary. Retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) acts as the mediator for the systemic and intercellular transport of retinol and is heavily involved in cellular ...

Platelet‐Rich Fibrins as Local Drug‐Delivery Carriers

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Autologous platelet concentrates (APCs), particularly platelet‐rich fibrin (PRF), act as biologically active fibrin scaffolds, capable of entrapping and gradually releasing therapeutic agents in oral and periodontal therapy. The incorporation of bioactive compounds, such as antibiotics, antifungals, vitamins, antidiabetic drugs, and exosomes, enhances ...

CryoEM structure and small-angle X-ray scattering analyses of porcine retinol-binding protein 3

Open Biology
The vertebrate visual cycle hinges on enzymatically converting all-trans-retinol (at-ROL) into 11-cis-retinal (11c-RAL), the chromophore that binds to opsins in photoreceptors, forming light-responsive pigments.
