Prediction of the Sex-Associated Genomic Region in Tunas (Thunnus Fishes) by Yoji Nakamura, Kentaro Higuchi, Kazunori Kumon, Motoshige Yasuike, Toshinori Takashi, Koichiro Gen, Atushi Fujiwara

“…We reviewed the RNA-seq data of southern bluefin tuna (T. maccoyii) in the public database and found that sult1st6y of southern bluefin tuna was expressed in all male testes, but absent or suppressed in the female ovary. Since estrogen sulfotransferase is responsible for the inactivation of estrogens, it is reasonable to assume that the expression of sult1st6y in gonad cells may inhibit female development, thereby inducing the individuals to become males. …”

Overexpression of Notch3 and pS6 Is Associated with Poor Prognosis in Human Ovarian Epithelial Cancer by Zhaoxia Liu, Rongna Yun, Xiaolin Yu, Hui Hu, Genhua Huang, Buzhen Tan, Tingtao Chen

“…To assess the expression of Notch3 and pS6 in Chinese ovarian epithelial cancer patients, a ten-year follow-up study was performed in ovarian epithelial cancer tissues from 120 specimens of human ovarian epithelial cancer, 30 specimens from benign ovarian tumors, and 30 samples from healthy ovaries by immunohistochemistry. The results indicate that the expression of Notch3 and pS6 was higher in ovarian epithelial cancer than in normal ovary tissues and in benign ovarian tumor tissues (p<0.01). …”
