Effect of progesterone and first evidence about allopregnanolone action on the progression of epithelial human ovarian cancer cell lines
Publication date: Available online 12 October 2019Source: The Journal of Steroid Biochemistry and Molecular BiologyAuthor(s): Laura Tatiana Pelegrina, Myriam LaconiAbstractOvarian carcinoma is one of the most common cause of death by gynecologic cancer. Several epidemiological and in vitro studies have shown controversial data about progesterone effects in ovarian cancer. Progesterone can be converted in its active metabolite, allopregnanolone, its effects in ovarian cancer are still unknown. Previously, we demonstrated that allopregnanolone modifies ovarian morphophysiology, being able to alter critical process of tumor d...

The metastasizing mechanisms of lung cancer: Recent advances and therapeutic challenges
Biomed Pharmacother. 2021 Mar 6;138:111450. doi: 10.1016/j.biopha.2021.111450. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTLung cancer is one of the common malignant tumors that threaten human life with serious incidence and high mortality. According to the histopathological characteristics, lung cancer is mainly divided into non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and small cell lung cancer (SCLC). NSCLC accounts for about 80-85% of lung cancers. In fact, lung cancer metastasis is a major cause of treatment failure in clinical patients. The underlying reason is that the mechanisms of lung cancer metastasis are still not fully understood. Th...

MiR-137 and miR-34a directly target Snail and inhibit EMT, invasion and sphere-forming ability of ovarian cancer cells
In ovarian cancer (OC) cells, Snail was reported to induce the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), which is a critical step in OC metastasis. At present little is known about controlling Snail expressi...

Penn study shows how some intestinal cells resist chemotherapy and radiation
(University of Pennsylvania) When treating cancer with chemotherapy and radiation, decisions about dose must walk a fine line between attacking cancerous cells and preserving healthy ones. Overly aggressive radiation therapy to the torso, for example, can damage the epithelial cells that line the intestines, leading to chronic gastrointestinal problems. A new study from the University of Pennsylvania now shows how some intestinal cells can withstand chemotherapy and radiation.

PHF8 upregulation contributes to autophagic degradation of E-cadherin, epithelial-mesenchymal transition and metastasis in hepatocellular carcinoma
Plant homeodomain finger protein 8 (PHF8) serves an activator of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and is implicated in various tumors. However, little is known about PHF8 roles in hepatocellular carcino...

Ovarian adult granulosa cell tumor in one of identical adolescence twin with uterus didelphys and kidney agenesis. A case report
Introduction: Ovarian masses represent the most frequent tumors of the female genital tract in children and adolescents, about a half of them are neoplastic. A quarter of all tumors is malignant, additionally 2 –5% of those accounts for granulosa cell tumor (GCT). Despite the fact that childhood ovarian cancer is a very rare pathology and has a better prognosis due to its non-epithelial origin, the early diagnosis and specific management is necessary.

Primary Intraosseous Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma of the Jaw: Clinical and Histopathologic Analysis
Conclusions: The differential diagnosis of intraosseous ACC from other common tumors of jaws should be determined by the clinical, radiographic, and histopathologic subtypes. For treatment, surgery is the first choice for patients, and radiotherapy or chemotherapy might improve the prognosis in the postoperative period. In addition, the histopathologic subtypes and biologic processes of ACC are related to patient prognosis.

Anion exchange chromatography for the determination of 5-methyl-2'-deoxycytidine: application to cisplatin-sensitive and cisplatin-resistant ovarian cancer cell lines.
Abstract Epigenetic alterations are increasingly implicated in the initiation and progression of cancer. Genome-wide (global) hypomethylation seems to occur in early neoplasia and is a feature of genomic DNA derived from solid tumour tissues like ovarian cancer. Thus, analytical methods that provide sensitive and quantitative information about cytosine methylation in DNA are currently required. In this work, we compare two different anion-exchange columns for the separation of methylated cytosine from the other DNA nucleotides: a silica-based (Tracer Extrasil SAX) column and a polystyrene/divinyl benzene-based (Mo...

Abstract B03: PVT1 exon 9 is a potential non-invasive biomarker that regulates apoptosis and the cell cycle in aggressive prostate cancer in black males
Prostate cancer (PCA) is the most common non-skin cancer and the second leading cause of cancer-related death for men in the U.S. Black males have a higher incidence of PCA, compared to White males. In fact, Black race is a confirmed, non-modifiable risk factor for PCA with a 2.5 fold greater risk of lethal PCA compared to Caucasian males. Discovery of effective early detection strategies are necessary to address the profound health disparity. The chromosomal region 8q24 is associated with aggressive PCA in Black men and variants of this region have been identified to interact with the PVT1 non-protein coding gene in PCA. ...

Abstract IA11: Life course epidemiology and breast cancer: translating risk into prevention
Molecular histology may be conceptualized as the microscopic and molecular characteristics of normal tissues that are required for physiologic function. Over the life course, the molecular histology of the breast changes in response to physiological alterations, imparting spatial and temporal heterogeneity within the breasts of individuals and among women. These transitions contribute to the enormous range and imprecisely defined limits of what pathologists consider normal. Appreciation that molecular histology may reflect the cumulative influence of prior exposures linked to breast cancer risk, and may provide information...

c-Jun, pc-Jun, and p27 are differently expressed in oral leukoplakias in smokers and never-smokers
Oral cancer may be preceded by potentially malignant lesions, and smoking is a risk factor. Oral leukoplakia (OL), which is the most common among these lesions, is defined by the World Health Organization as “a white plaque of questionable risk having excluded known diseases or disorders that carry no increased risk for cancer.” Thus, OL is a clinical diagnosis used to designate oral white lesions, which are histologically represented by hyperkeratosis associated or not associated with epithelial dysplasia.
