Androgen Receptor Signaling in in vivo models of Estrogen Receptor-positive Breast Cancer and Normal Breast Epithelium

Steroid hormone receptors (HRs) are ligand-activated transcription factors that play a pivotal role in breast development and carcinogenesis. It is well established that estrogen receptor (ER) signaling is a major proliferative driver in estrogen receptor ...

Plant sterols and cholesterol metabolism are associated with five-year cognitive decline in the elderly population

Christopher Clark, Mehdi Gholam

Dysregulations in cholesterol metabolism are associated with neurodegenerative and vascular pathologies, and dementia. Diet-derived plant sterols (phytosterols) have cholesterol-lowering, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties and may interfere with ...

Exportin 1 inhibition prevents neuroendocrine transformation through SOX2 down-regulation in lung and prostate cancers

Wouter Richard Karthaus

In lung and prostate adenocarcinomas, neuroendocrine (NE) transformation to an aggressive derivative resembling small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is associated with poor prognosis. We previously described dependency of SCLC on the nuclear transporter exportin ...

High-valence metals improve oxygen evolution reaction performance by modulating 3dmetal oxidation cycle energetics

Likai Zheng, Yang Li, Yelin Hu, Jun Li, Ye Zhang, Ziyun Wang, Bo Zhang, Zhen Cao

Multimetal oxyhydroxides have recently been reported that outperform noble metal catalysts for oxygen evolution reaction (OER). In such 3d-metal-based catalysts, the oxidation cycle of 3dmetals has been posited to act as the OER thermodynamic-limiting proc ...

A Coumarin Triflate Reagent Enables One‐Step Synthesis of Photo‐Caged Lipid Metabolites for Studying Cell Signaling

Milena Maria Schuhmacher

Photorelease of caged compounds is among the most powerful experimental approaches for studying cellular functions on fast timescales. However, its full potential has yet to be exploited, as the number of caged small molecules available for cell biological ...

Effect-based tools for monitoring estrogenic mixtures: Evaluation of five in vitro bioassays

In vitro estrogen receptor transactivation assays (ERTAs) are increasingly used to measure the overall estrogenic activity of environmental water samples, which may serve as an indicator of exposure of fish or other aquatic organisms to (xeno)estrogens. An ...
