A series of 2-phenylspiroindenes was prepared. The most active analogue (2) was found to be comparable in potency to raloxifene (1) as an estrogen receptor ligand.

Phagocytic clearance of apoptotic cancer cells (efferocytosis) by tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) contributes in a substantial manner to the establishment of an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. This puts in context our observation that the female steroid hormone 17β-estradiol (E2) facilitates tumor immune resistance through cancer cell extrinsic Estrogen Receptor (ERalpha;) signaling in TAMs. Notable was the finding that E2 induces the expression of CX3CR1 in TAMs to enable efferocytosis of apoptotic cancer cells which results in the suppression of type I interferon (IFN) signaling.

High levels of DEHP exposure have been linked to adverse pregnancy outcomes, yet little is known about how it affects human uterine functions. We previously reported that the estrogen-regulated transcription factor hypoxia-inducible factor 2 alpha (HIF2α) promotes the expression of Rab27b, which controls the trafficking and secretion of extracellular vesicles (EVs).

Metabolic reprogramming is a prominent component of endocrine resistance and a potential therapeutic intervention point. However, a limited understanding of which metabolic changes are conserved across the heterogeneous landscape of ER+ breast cancer or how metabolic changes factor into ER DNA binding patterns hinder our ability to target metabolic adaptation as a treatment strategy.

Ductal carcinoma (DCIS), a noninvasive breast cancer, rarely metastasises to distant locations. When the initial lesion is stable, bone marrow metastasis (BMM) and bone marrow necrosis (BMN) are even less common. Here, we report the case of a 47-year-old female patient who underwent localized surgery and radiotherapy for right-sided DCIS.

The number of beef × dairy animals entering feedlots has increased, but the response of beef × dairy cattle to growth-promoting implants has not been well characterized. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of breed type and implant administration on live performance, carcass characteristics, sera metabolites, and immunohistochemical (IHC) outcomes. Forty-eight steers (average body weight [BW] = 417±22 kg) were sorted by breed into groups of predominantly Angus (B), black-hided beef × primarily Holstein (B×D), or Holstein (D), and half of the steers within each breed type were administered a steroidal implant.
