Abstract

Androgens are involved in many regulatory processes in mammary and endometrial epithelium, but their role in the development and progression of breast and endometrial carcinoma is poorly understood. Androgen receptors (AR) are found in normal epithelium as well as in more than 50% of specimen from both tumor types. The occurrence of AR is correlated with estrogen and progesterone receptors. Androgen receptor positive cell lines were established during the last few years in our laboratory from malignant mammary (MFM-223) and endometrial (MFE-296) tumors supplementing the small number of androgen-responsive cell lines published so far. In this paper some aspects of the role of androgens in these two types of hormone responsive female cancers are presented. The proliferation of ZR-75-1, MFM-223 and MFE-296 cells is inhibited by androgens. The progestin medroxyprogesterone acetate inhibits the proliferation of estrogen- and progesterone receptor negative MFM-223 cells via the androgen receptor. Some steroid metabolites with distinct estrogenic properties like androst-5-ene-3 beta,17 beta-diol possess androgenic properties in this model system. Androgens stimulate the in vitro secretion of gross cystic disease fluid proteins by huma...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
