Vaginal atrophy is a prevalent symptom in menopausal women, affecting over 50% of older women and patients with loss of ovarian function. The role of factors other than estrogen, such as the vaginal microbiota (VM), in the development of vaginal atrophy has not been fully explored. Therefore, we selected 8-week-old C57 mice with bilateral ovariectomy for experimentation.

Breast cancer stem cells are a promising therapeutic target in cancer. We explored breast cancer stem cell diversity and establish a methodology for selectively culturing breast cancer stem cells. We collected breast cancer tissues from surgical samples of treatment-naïve patients with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative breast cancer.

MEF2D::NCOA2 fusion was recently reported in two vulvovaginal myxoid epithelioid smooth muscle tumors. We aimed to performed an integrated approach combining clinical, morphological, immunohistochemical, and molecular profiling analyses, including targeted-RNA-sequencing, targeted-gene expression analysis profiling with clustering, DNA mutational analysis, and array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) in a series of three MEF2D::NCOA2 fusion-associated vulvovaginal tumors, to better described this entity. The median age at diagnosis was 45 years.

Estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast carcinoma represents a significant portion of breast cancer cases and is characterized by the presence of estrogen receptors that promote tumor growth upon estrogen binding. ER + breast cancer progression involves hormonal influences, interactions within the tumor microenvironment, and genetic mutations that may lead to treatment resistance. Successful therapeutic options include hormonal therapies, particularly aromatase inhibitors (AIs), which aim to block the effects of estrogen or reduce its synthesis.
