Background: GATA binding protein 3 (GATA3) is a transcription factor that plays a critical role in the differentiation and function of luminal epithelial cells in the breast. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that modulate gene expression and their dysregulation has been implicated in cancer. The purpose of this study was to investigate the expression of GATA3 and its corresponding targeting miRNAs in breast cancer.

Article Synopsis
  • Diabetes negatively affects male fertility by altering testicular structure and hormone levels.
  • A study using artichoke extract and probiotics on diabetic rats showed significant improvements in sexual hormones, oxidative stress markers, and overall testicular health.
  • The combination treatment led to increased sperm quantity and quality, indicating potential for future infertility therapies in diabetic men.

Background: Inflammation is an important factor contributing to obesity-induced metabolic disorders. Different investigations confirm that local inflammation in adipose issues is the primary reason for such disorder, resulting in low-grade systemic inflammation. Anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and epigenetic modification are among the varied properties of Quercetin (QCT) as a natural flavonoid.

Background: Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) plays a significant role in the mortality associated with kidney cancer. Targeting biological processes that inhibit cancer growth opens up new treatment possibilities. The unfolded protein response (UPR) and apoptosis have crucial roles in RCC progression.

Aim: Multiple sclerosis is believed to be an autoimmune disease that is influenced by T helper (Th) cell differentiation. GATA3 plays an important role in reducing the development and severity of MS by shifting the differentiation of Th cells to Th2 and regulatory T cells while inhibiting the differentiation of Th1 and Th17 cells. Considering the functional role of rs1058240 SNP in the 3'-UTR of GATA3 mRNA, the association of target SNP with the risk of RRMS was examined.
