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

Andrea Agnoletto

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 ...

Optimized Modeling of Metastatic Triple-Negative Invasive Lobular Breast Carcinoma

Cathrin Brisken, Georgios Sflomos, Laura Battista

Simple Summary Invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) is the second most common histologic subtype of breast cancer and is often detected at an advanced stage. Up to 30% of ILC cases relapse and present a challenge for treatment. Unfortunately, there are few mod ...

Estrogen receptor signaling in the human breast epithelium

Céline Berthe Constantin

Breast cancer is the most diagnosed malignancy in women worldwide, making effective prevention strategies crucial. Hormonal contraceptives, consisting of a synthetic progesterone receptor agonist alone or in combination with an estrogen, are used by millio ...

Stromal Notch ligands foster lymphopenia-driven functional plasticity and homeostatic proliferation of naive B cells

Freddy Radtke, Ute Koch

In lymphopenic environments, secondary lymphoid organs regulate the size of B and T cell compartments by supporting the homeostatic proliferation of mature lymphocytes. The molecular mechanisms underlying these responses and their functional consequences r ...

Hypothalamic pregnenolone mediates recognition memory in the context of metabolic disorders

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Ioannis Zalachoras

Obesity and type 2 diabetes are associated with cognitive dysfunction. Because the hypothalamus is implicated in energy balance control and memory disorders, we hypothesized that specific neurons in this brain region are at the interface of metabolism and ...

Membrane expression of the estrogen receptor ER alpha is required for intercellular communications in the mammary epithelium

Cathrin Brisken, Stéphanie Cagnet

17 beta-Estradiol induces the postnatal development of mammary gland and influences breast carcinogenesis by binding to the estrogen receptor ER alpha. ER alpha acts as a transcription factor but also elicits rapid signaling through a fraction of ER alpha ...

Serum GFAP in multiple sclerosis: correlation with disease type and MRI markers of disease severity

Tobias Kober, Bénédicte Marie Maréchal, Ricardo Alberto Corredor Jerez

Neurofilament light chain (NfL) has been demonstrated to correlate with multiple sclerosis disease severity as well as treatment response. Nevertheless, additional serum biomarkers are still needed to better differentiate disease activity from disease prog ...

A novel culture method that sustains ER alpha signaling in human breast cancer tissue microstructures

Cathrin Brisken, Georgios Sflomos

Background Estrogen receptor alpha (ER alpha) signaling is a defining and driving event in most breast cancers; ER alpha is detected in malignant epithelial cells of 75% of all breast cancers (classified as ER-positive breast cancer) and, in these cases, E ...

Hormone receptor signaling in estrogen receptor positive breast cancer

Valentina Scabia

Estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) signaling tightly interact in controlling postnatal breast development and impinge on breast carcinogenesis. PR is a direct transcriptional target of ER signaling and ER and PR bind closely to DNA and i ...

Rapid and Digital Detection of Inflammatory Biomarkers Enabled by a Novel Portable Nanoplasmonic Imager

Hatice Altug, Filiz Yesilköy, Alexander Belushkin

New point-of-care diagnostic devices are urgently needed for rapid and accurate diagnosis, particularly in the management of life-threatening infections and sepsis, where immediate treatment is key. Sepsis is a critical condition caused by systemic respons ...

Interference of silver nanoparticles with essential metal homeostasis in a novel enterohepatic fish in vitro system

Kristin Schirmer

Silver nanoparticle toxicity has been extensively studied in several vertebrate cells. Its correlation with cellular essential metal homeostasis, however, has largely been overlooked. In this study, we used a novel in vitro model of a fish enterohepatic sy ...

Oestrogen receptor alpha AF-1 and AF-2 domains have cell population-specific functions in the mammary epithelium

Cathrin Brisken, Georgios Sflomos, Valentina Scabia, Patrik Aouad, Ayyakkannu Ayyanan, Dalya Ataca, Stéphanie Cagnet

Oestrogen receptor alpha (ER alpha) is a transcription factor with ligand-independent and ligand-dependent activation functions (AF)-1 and -2. Oestrogens control postnatal mammary gland development acting on a subset of mammary epithelial cells (MECs), ter ...

Proteome-Wide Effect of 17-beta-Estradiol and Lipoxin A(4) in an Endometriotic Epithelial Cell Line

Endometriosis affects approximately 10% of women of reproductive age. This chronic, gynecological inflammatory disease results in a decreased quality of life for patients, with the main symptoms including chronic pelvic pain and infertility. The steroid ho ...

Glutathione deficit affects the integrity and function of the fimbria/fornix and anterior commissure in mice: relevance for schizophrenia

João Miguel das Neves Duarte, Rolf Gruetter, Yohan Van de Looij, Alberto Corcoba

BACKGROUND: Structural anomalies of white matter (WM) are found in various brain regions of patients with schizophrenia, bipolar and other psychiatric disorders, but the causes at cellular and molecular levels remain unclear. Oxidative stress and redox dys ...

Effects of clofibric acid alone and in combination with 17 beta-estradiol on mRNA abundance in primary hepatocytes isolated from rainbow trout

Kristin Schirmer

Clofibric acid (CA) is the active substance of lipid lowering drugs. It is resistant to degradation, polar in nature, and has been found ubiquitously in the aquatic environment. Though CA is classified as a peroxisomal proliferator in rodents and is consid ...

The Orphan Nuclear Receptor Nr5a2 Is Essential for Luteinization in the Female Mouse Ovary

Kristina Schoonjans

In the ovary, the follicular granulosa cells express the nuclear receptor Nr5a2 (nuclear receptor subfamily 5 group A member 2), also known as liver receptor homolog-1, and after ovulation, Nr5a2 expression persists in the corpus luteum. Previous studies d ...

VEGFR-3 Neutralization Inhibits Ovarian Lymphangiogenesis, Follicle Maturation, and Murine Pregnancy

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Didier Trono, Melody Swartz

Lymphatic vessels surround follicles within the ovary, but their roles in folliculogenesis and pregnancy, as well as the necessity of Lymphangiogenesis in follicle maturation and health, are undefined. We used systemic delivery of mF4-31C1, a specific anta ...

Long-term programming of enhanced aggression by peripuberty stress in female rats

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Maria Isabel Cordero Campana

Human literature has linked adverse early life experiences with an increased risk to develop violent behaviors in both boys and girls. We have previously shown that male rats submitted to stress during the peripuberty period display as adults abnormal aggr ...

Impact of environmental estrogens on fish considering the diversity of estrogen signaling

Research on endocrine disruption in fish has been dominated by studies on estrogen-active compounds which act as mimics of the natural estrogen, 17 beta-estradiol (E2), and generally exert their biological actions by binding to and activation of estrogen r ...

ID4 regulates mammary gland development by suppressing p38MAPK activity

Yiming Li, Cathrin Brisken, Xiuwei Zhang, Jun Dong, Marian Caikovski

The ID family of helix-loop-helix proteins regulates cell proliferation and differentiation in many different developmental pathways, but the functions of ID4 in mammary development are unknown. We report that mouse Id4 is expressed in cap cells, basal cel ...
