The levels of circulating vitellogenin in the plasma of male carp after induction by estradiol-17 beta was examined in summer- and winter-acclimatized fish. During the warm season male fish exhibited a clear vitellogenic response, whereas the fish adapted to the cold season did not. The evaluation of the hepatic estrogen receptors revealed that although steroid-binding affinity is not affected by seasonal acclimatization, the concentration of estrogen receptors certainly is. This was evidenced in estrogen treated fish. Summer-acclimatized carp featured a concentration of hepatic estrogen receptors 2.5 fold higher than the cold season adapted fish. The results suggest that the failure of estrogen to induce vitellogenesis in cold adapted carp may be due; at least in part, to a deficient up-regulation of hepatic estrogen receptors in the corresponding acclimatized state.

Background: Migraine is a highly prevalent and incapacitating neurological disorder mostly characterised by recurring attacks of moderate to severe throbbing and pulsating pain on one side of the head. The role of estrogen in migraine has been well documented. Although genetic variations in the ESR1 gene have been associated with an increased risk of developing migraine, the findings are inconsistent.

This study aims to investigate the expression of GPER in EC, assess the impact of estrogen on the proliferation and migration of EC via GPER, and examine the potential role of GPER in mediating the NOTCH pathway to influence EC proliferation and migration. The expression of GPER and its correlation with clinicopathological features were investigated using clinical data. Cell proliferation was assessed through MTT and EdU assays, while cell migration ability was evaluated using wound healing and transwell assays.

Objective: Nitrate is ubiquitously found in the environment and is one of the main components of nitrogen fertilizers. Previous studies have shown that nitrate disrupts the reproductive system in aquatic animals, but no study has evaluated the impact of nitrate exposure on the uterus in mammals. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of maternal exposure to nitrate during the prenatal period on uterine morphology and gene expression in adult female F1 rats.

Background: CDK4/6 inhibitors have significantly improved the survival of patients with HR-positive/HER2-negative breast cancer, becoming a first-line treatment option. However, the development of resistance to these inhibitors is inevitable. To address this challenge, novel strategies are required to overcome resistance, necessitating a deeper understanding of its mechanisms.
