Dietary phytoestrogens recalibrate socioemotional behavior in C57Bl/6J mice in a sex- and timing-dependent manner.

Estrogens are potent regulators of socioemotional behavior across species. Ubiquitous in human and animal diets, plant-derived phytoestrogens (PE) bind estrogen receptors. While prior work has examined the impact of PE exposure on socioemotional behavior, findings are inconsistent across studies.

Metabolic Characterization of Sarin, Cyclosarin, and Novichoks (A-230, A-232) in Human Liver Microsomes.

We have assessed the human liver microsomal (HLM) metabolism of the chemical warfare nerve agents' sarin (GB), cyclosarin (GF), and the Novichok agents A-230 and A-232. In HLM, GB showed drastically decreased stability ( = 1.4 h).

Mesonephric-Like Adenocarcinomas, an Underdiagnosed Rare Type of Gynecological Malignancy Associated with Aggressive Clinical Behaviors: A Series of 4 Patients from Single Institution.

Mesonephric-like adenocarcinoma (MLA) is a newly recognized type of carcinoma that occurs in the uterus and ovaries. MLA exhibits distinct morphological and immunophenotypical features similar to those of mesonephric carcinoma of the cervix or vagina, with the majority of reported tumors containing mutations. MLA is exceedingly rare and appears to be associated with aggressive clinical behavior.

Curcumin Mitigates Gut Dysbiosis and Enhances Gut Barrier Function to Alleviate Metabolic Dysfunction in Obese, Aged Mice.

The gut microbiome plays a critical role in maintaining gut and metabolic health, and its composition is often altered by aging and obesity. This study aimed to investigate the protective effects of curcumin on gut dysbiosis, gut barrier integrity, and bile acid homeostasis in aged mice fed a high-fat, high-sugar diet (HFHSD). Eighteen- to twenty-one-month-old male C57BL/6 mice were divided into groups fed a normal chow diet or HFHSD, with or without curcumin supplementation (0.
