We have analyzed by immunohistochemistry Brca1 and Brca2 protein expression in mouse during embryonic development, in adult tissues, and during postnatal mammary gland development. Our observations confirm previous localization of Brca1 and Brca2 mRNA on frozen sections by in situ hybridization, and demonstrate that Brca1 and Brca2 proteins are expressed in rapidly proliferating cell types undergoing differentiation. These results imply that Brca1 and Brca2 proteins are involved in the process of proliferation and differentiation in multiple tissues, notably in the mammary gland during pregnancy and lactation.

BRCA1/BRCA2-containing complex subunit 3 (BRCC3) has been proved to exert pro-inflammatory effect in various inflammatory diseases through different mechanisms, but its involvement in pulpitis remains unclear. This study aims to investigate the regulatory role and mechanisms of BRCC3 in modulating dental pulp cell inflammation and pulpitis progression. The expression of BRCC3 was observed to be elevated in human/mouse pulpitis samples and lipopolysaccharide-stimulated human dental pulp cells (hDPCs).

Objective: The aim of this study was to examine disparities in 20-year incidence trends and mutations in advanced-stage uterine cancer in the United States, given poor survival rates.
Methods: Data were obtained from the United States Cancer Statistics for patients from 2001 to 2019 with International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics 2009 stage IVA and IVB uterine cancer. SEER∗Stat 8.

Background: We present a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials (RCTs) with PARPi either as monotherapy or in combination with an androgen receptor-targeted agent (ARTA) in first- and second-line settings.
Methods: Primary endpoints are radiographic progression free survival (rPFS) and overall survival (OS) in patients with mCRPC and either unselected, homologous recombination repair wild-type (HRR-), homologous recombination repair mutated (HRR+) or with BRCA1, BRCA2, or ATM mutation. The effect of PARPi + ARTA in the second-line setting is also explored.

Background And Purpose: Despite advancements in genetic testing and expanded eligibility criteria, underutilisation of germline testing for pathogenic variants in BRCA1 and BRCA2 (BRCA) remains evident among breast cancer (BC) patients. This observational cohort study presents real-world data on BRCA testing within the context of clinical practice challenges, including incomplete family history and under-referral.
Material And Methods: From the Danish Breast Cancer Group (DBCG) clinical database, we included 65,117 females with unilateral stage I-III BC diagnosed in 2000-2017, of whom 9,125 (14%) were BRCA tested.

Background: Patients who actively engage in their medical decision-making processes can experience better health outcomes. This exploratory study aimed to identify predictors of preferred and actual roles in decision-making in healthy women with BRCA1/2 pathogenic variants (PVs).
Methods: Women with BRCA1/2 PVs without a history of breast and/or ovarian cancer were recruited in six centres across Germany.
