In Western countries, the increase in the consumption of soy-derived products raises the population's exposure to isoflavones. These molecules, present in many foods, have numerous effects on the body's cells, including regulation of the transcription and epigenetics, cell signaling, cell cycle, cell growth, apoptosis, and oxidative stress. However, despite the multitude of studies conducted, on these compounds, it remains difficult to draw definitive conclusions regarding their safety or dangerousness in the diet.

Estrogen (E2) deficiency is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD), however, the exact mechanism for the E2 protective effect on CVD remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the estrogen receptor (ER) and non-receptor mediated effects of E2 treatment on the cardiac expression of adenosine monophosphate-dependent protein kinase (AMPK), autophagic, mitophagy and mitochondrial homeostasis-regulating genes in ovariectomized (OVX) rats. Female rats were divided into two main groups; sham and bilaterally OVX rats, then each group was subdivided into four subgroups according to treatment; untreated, subcutaneously treated with E2 (30 μg/kg), or Fulvestrant (F) (5 mg/Kg), or a combination of both drugs for 28 days.

Obesity is concurrent with immunological dysregulation, resulting in chronic low-grade inflammation and cellular dysfunction. In pancreatic islets, this loss of function has been correlated with mature β-cells dedifferentiating into a precursor-like state through constant exposure to inflammatory stressors. As mature adipocytes likewise have the capability to dedifferentiate in vitro and in vivo, we wanted to analyze this cellular change in relation to adipose tissue (AT) inflammation and adipose tissue macrophage (ATM) activity.

Infertility due to ovarian toxicity is a common side effect of cancer treatment in premenopausal women. Tamoxifen (TAM) is a selective estrogen receptor modulator that prevented radiation- and chemotherapy-induced ovarian failure in preclinical studies. In the current study, we examined the potential regulatory role of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in the mechanism of action of TAM in the ovaries of tumor-bearing rats receiving cyclophosphamide (CPA) as cancer therapy.
