Identification of a Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenase sequence motif [PDF]
Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenases (BVMOs) form a distinct class of flavoproteins that catalyze the insertion of an oxygen atom in a C-C bond using dioxygen and NAD(P)H.

The effect of hypoxia on ER-β expression in the lung and cultured pulmonary artery endothelial cells [PDF]
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI)17-β estradiol (E2) exerts protective effects in hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension (HPH) via endothelial cell estrogen receptor (ER)-dependent mechanisms. However, the effects of hypoxia on ER

Sex steroids, carcinogenesis, and cancer progression [PDF]
The relationship between sex steroids and cancer has been studied for more than a century. Using an original intact cell analysis, we investigated sex steroid metabolism in a panel of human cancer cell lines, either hormone responsive or unresponsive ...

Meta‐transcriptome analysis identified FGF19 as a peptide enteroendocrine hormone associated with colorectal cancer prognosis. In vivo xenograft models showed release of FGF19 into the blood at levels that correlated with tumor volumes. Tumoral‐FGF19 altered murine liver metabolism through FGFR4, thereby reducing bile acid synthesis and increasing ...

Impaired endometrial receptivity contributes to the poor pregnancy outcomes in women with PCOS. The authors found that decreased endometrial IL‐22 levels and disrupted STAT3‐IGFBP5 signaling pathway contributed to impaired endometrial receptivity. Supplementation with IL‐22 or IGFBP5 exerts a protective effect on implantation failure in PCOS‐like mice,
