We found that an increase in the expression level of E75, DHR3, and ERR increases the degree of activation of dhr3 and hr4 genes in Drosophila S2 cells. We also detected a repressing effect of these nuclear receptors on the basal transcription level of these genes. This is the first study to show the ability of nuclear receptors E75, DHR3, and ERR to function as activators or repressors depending on external conditions. We also confirmed the existence of the interaction of all studied nuclear receptors with the promoters of dhr3 and hr4 genes of the ecdysone cascade in vivo.

Insights into Toxicological Mechanisms of Per-/polyfluoroalkyl Substances by Using Omics-centered Approaches.

Environ Pollut

The extensive presence of per-/polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in the environment and their adverse effects on organisms have garnered increasing concern. With the shift of industrial development from legacy to emerging PFASs, expanding the understanding of molecular responses to legacy and emerging PFASs is essential to accurately assess their risks to organisms. Compared with traditional toxicological approaches, omics technologies including transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics/lipidomics, and microbiomics allow comprehensive analysis of the molecular changes that occur in organisms after PFAS exposure.

Analysis of nuclear receptor expression in head and neck cancer.

Cancer Genet

December 2024

Department of Otolaryngology, University of Minnesota, MMC396, 420 Delaware St SE, Minneapolis, MN 55455, USA.

Objective: Studies of squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (HNSCC) have demonstrated the importance of nuclear receptors and their associated coregulators in the development and treatment of HNSCC. We sought to characterize members of the nuclear receptor super family through interrogation of RNA-Seq and microarray data.

Materials And Methods: TCGA RNA-Seq data within the cBioportal platform comparing HNSCC samples (n = 515 patients with RNA-Seq data) to normal tissue (n = 82 patients) was interrogated for significant differences in nuclear receptor expression.

In women globally, breast cancer ranks as the second most frequent cause of cancer-related deaths, making up about 25% of female cancer cases, which is pretty standard in affluent countries. Breast cancer is divided into subtypes based on aggressive, genetic and stage. The precise cause of the problem is still unknown.

The detection of Estrogen Receptor (ER), Progesterone Receptor (PR), and Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2) is important for the stratification of breast cancer and the selection of therapeutic modalities. This study aimed to determine the quantitative expression of ER, PR and HER-2 using Immunohistochemistry and their correlation with quantitative baseline Ct values measured using Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). This study also assessed the use of fresh breast tissue biopsies preserved in RNAlater solution in the quantitative detection of these receptors using PCR technique.

ErbB3 is markedly overexpressed in breast cancer cells and is associated with resistance and metastasis. Additionally, ErbB3 expression levels are positively correlated with low densities of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, a marker of poor prognosis. Consequently, ErbB3 is a promising therapeutic target for cancer immunotherapy.
