Primary hyperparathyroidism is typically characterized by monoclonal parathyroid tumors that secrete an excessive amount of parathyroid hormone (PTH). However, the underlying pathogenesis of tumorigenesis remains unclear. We performed single-cell transcriptomic analysis on five parathyroid adenoma (PA) and two parathyroid carcinoma (PC) samples. A total of 63,909 cells were divided into 11 different cell categories; endocrine cells accounted for the largest proportion of cells in both PA and PC, and patients with PC had larger populations of endocrine cells. Our results revealed significant heterogeneity in PA and PC. We identified cell cycle regulators that may play a critical role in the tumorigenesis of PC. Furthermore, we found that the tumor microenvironment in PC was immunosuppressive, and endothelial cells had the highest interactions with other cell types, such as fibroblast-musculature cells and endocrine cells. PC development may be stimulated by fibroblast-endothelial cell interactions. Our study clarifies the transcriptional signatures that underlie parathyroid tumors and offer a potential significant contribution in the study of pathogenesis of PC. © 2023 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Context: Despite a growing number of studies, the genetic etiology in many cases of ovarian dysgenesis is incompletely understood.
Objectives: This work aimed to study the genetic etiology causing absence of spontaneous pubertal development, hypergonadotropic hypogonadism, and primary amenorrhea in 2 sisters.
Methods: Whole-exome sequencing was performed on DNA extracted from peripheral lymphocytes of 2 Palestinian sisters born to consanguineous parents.

Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine and metabolic condition impacting millions of women worldwide. This study sought to identify granulosa cell endoplasmic reticulum stress (GCERS)-related differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between women with PCOS and those without PCOS using bioinformatics and to investigate the related molecular mechanisms.
Methods: Two datasets were downloaded from GEO and analysed using the limma package to identify DEGs in two groups-PCOS and normal granulosa cells.

This study aimed to identify chemical compounds derived from Vassobia breviflora methanolic extract using ESI-ToF-MS and their antioxidant potential activity utilizing the following methods: total phenols, DPPH, and ABTS. The MTT assay measured cytotoxic activity, while DCFH-DA and nitric oxide assays were employed to determine reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) levels using African green monkey kidney (VERO) and human keratinocyte (HaCat) cell lines. The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimal bactericidal concentration (MBC) were assessed in seven clinical isolates and nine ATCC strains.

Although tamoxifen is commonly utilized as adjuvant therapy for Estrogen Receptor alpha (ERα)-positive breast cancer patients, approximately 30-50% of individuals treated with tamoxifen experience relapse. Therefore, it is essential to investigate additional factors besides ERα that influence the estrogen response. In this study, cross-analysis of databases were performed, and the results revealed a significant association between LINC00626 and ERα signaling as well as increased expression levels of this gene in tamoxifen-resistant cells.

Background: Dynamins are defined as a group of molecules with GTPase activity that play a role in the formation of endocytic vesicles and Golgi apparatus. Among them, DNM3 has gained recognition in oncology for its tumor suppressor role. Based on this, the aim of this study is to investigate the effects of the DNM3 gene in patients diagnosed with pancreatic cancer using bioinformatics databases.
