The intestinal microbiome as a separate organ by Yu. O. Shulpekova

“…Interaction of bacteria with the «host» reminds cooperation of usual cells and can be carried out due to receptor binding, paracrine and humoral pathways, as well as due to phagocytosis and endocytosis. Microbes produce hormone-like substances, analogues of growth factors and neurotransmitters that determine two-way interaction of microflora with the central nervous system and its active metabolic role. …”

Understanding the impact of triazoles on female fertility and embryo development: Mechanisms and implications by Sonal Sharma, Geeta Pandey

“…The findings suggest that triazoles might negatively affect female fertility and embryonic development through multiple mechanisms including inhibition or interference with key enzymes such as CYP17A1 and CYP19A1 (aromatase) involved in steroid hormone synthesis, endocrine disruption, oxidative stress, disruption of signaling pathways, and apoptosis. …”

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS): progress towards a better understanding and treatment of the syndrome by Mimouni, Nour El Houda, Giacobini, Paolo

“…However, the underlying mechanisms of its transmission remain unknown, thus limiting the development of effective therapeutic strategies.This article highlights how an altered fetal environment (prenatal exposure to high levels of anti-Müllerian hormone) can contribute to the onset of PCOS in adulthood and lead to the transgenerational transmission of neuroendocrine and metabolic traits through alterations in the DNA methylation process.The originality of the translational findings summarized here involves the identification of potential biomarkers for early diagnosis of the syndrome, in addition to the validation of a promising therapeutic avenue in a preclinical model of PCOS, which can improve the management of patients suffering from the syndrome.…”

Transcriptomic reprogramming and epigenetic regulation underlying pollination-dependent and auxin-induced fruit set in tomato by Xiaohan Li, Xiaohan Li, Xiaohan Li, Bing He, Anis Djari, Pierre Frasse, Elie Maza, Farid Regad, Julien Pirrello, Guojian Hu, Guojian Hu, Guojian Hu, Guojian Hu, Mondher Bouzayen

“…Despite these similarities, a comparative analysis of the effects of natural pollination and auxin treatment revealed several differences, primarily related to seed development and hormone signaling. Taken together, the data support the idea that auxin serves as the central hormone orchestrating the extensive gene reprogramming associated with fruit initiation in tomato.…”

Droplet microfluidic screening to engineer angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) catalytic activity by Evelyn F Okal, Philip A. Romero, Pete Heinzelman

“…Abstract Background Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 (ACE2) is a crucial peptidase in human peptide hormone signaling, catalyzing the conversion of Angiotensin-II to Angiotensin-(1–7), which activates the Mas receptor and elicits vasodilation, increased blood flow, reduced inflammation, and decreased pathological tissue remodeling. …”

Breast cancer survival and season of surgery: an ecological open cohort study by Dorthe Teilum, Karsten D Bjerre, Anne M Tjønneland, Niels Kroman

“…Background Vitamin D has been suggested to influence the incidence and prognosis of breast cancer, and studies have found better overall survival (OS) after diagnosis for breast cancer in summer–autumn, where the vitamin D level are expected to be highest.Objective To compare the prognostic outcome for early breast cancer patients operated at different seasons of the year.Design Open population-based cohort study.Setting Danish women operated 1978–2010.Cases 79 658 adjusted for age at surgery, period of surgery, tumour size, axillary lymph node status and hormone receptor status.Statistical analysis The association between OS and season of surgery was analysed by Cox proportional hazards regression models, at survival periods 0–1, 0–2, 0–5 and 0–10 years after surgery. …”

Distinct vaginal microbiome and metabolome profiles in women with preterm delivery following cervical cerclage by Jun Zhang, Li Li, Mengjun Zhang, Jiaoning Fang, Zhimin Xu, Yijing Zheng, Zhi Lin, Mian Pan

“…In addition, vaginal metabolomics-based liquid chromatography–Orbitrap–tandem mass spectrometry (LC-Orbitrap-MS/MS) found that the alteration in vaginal metabolites in pregnant women with PTB is involved in starch and sucrose metabolism; arginine and praline metabolism; galactose metabolism; purine metabolism; arginine metabolism; tryptophan metabolism and N-glycan biosynthesis; cysteine and methionine metabolism; taurine and hypotaurine metabolism; amino acid metabolism; propanoate metabolism; valine, leucine, and isoleucine biosynthesis; glycine, serine, and threonine metabolism; and steroid hormone biosynthesis. These results elaborated that distinct vaginal microbiome and metabolome profiles in women with preterm delivery following cervical cerclage provide valuable information for establishing the prediction models for PTB.…”
