Aurintricarboxylic acid (ATA) was immobilized on Sepharose 4B via a carbodiimide coupling mechanism. A majority of the chick oviduct progesterone receptor was retained on the affinity resin and could be recovered upon washing the column with buffer containing free ligand or 3 M guanidine-HCl. The [3H]progesterone-receptor complex retained its integrity following the chromatography on ATA-Sepharose as judged by sedimentation analysis. The procedure allowed significant purification of progesterone receptor: SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the purified preparation revealed elimination of many peptide bands present in the cytosol prior to ATA-Sepharose chromatography. The technique thus has a clear potential in characterization and purification of progesterone receptor.

RANK/RANKL Signaling Pathway in Breast Development and Cancer.
Adv Exp Med Biol
January 2025
Molecular Oncology, Spanish National Cancer Research Centre (CNIO), Madrid, Spain.
RANK pathway has attracted increasing interest as a promising target in breast cancer, given the availability of denosumab, an anti-RANKL drug. RANK signaling mediates progesterone-driven regulation of mammary gland development and favors breast cancer initiation by controlling mammary cell proliferation and stem cell fate. RANK activation promotes luminal mammary epithelial cell senescence, acting as an initial barrier to tumorigenesis but ultimately facilitating tumor progression and metastasis.

Hormones control normal breast development and function. They also impinge on breast cancer (BC) development and disease progression in direct and indirect ways. The major ovarian hormones, estrogens and progesterone, have long been established as key regulators of mammary gland development in rodents and linked to human disease.

Lerociclib (GB491), a highly selective oral CDK4/6 inhibitor, has displayed anti-tumor activity and differentiated safety and tolerability profile in previous ph1/2 clinical trials. The LEONARDA-1, a randomized, double-blind, phase III study, was conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of lerociclib in HR+/HER2- locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer patients, who had relapsed or progressed on prior endocrine therapy. A total of 275 patients were randomized at 1:1 ratio to receive lerociclib (137 patients, 150 mg twice daily) or placebo (138 patients) plus fulvestrant.

Background: Adverse events in childhood are linked to cancer risk across the life course, but evidence is lacking regarding parental death during childhood and breast cancer (BrCa) characteristics. We investigated whether parental loss in childhood defines women at higher risk of BrCa incidence and aggressive disease.
Methods: The Child Health and Development Studies (CHDS) comprises over 15,000 families who enrolled during mothers' pregnancies between 1959-1967; family members were followed for cancer incidence and cause-specific mortality.

Based on an exhaustive review, a theory was proposed with an immunoendocrine perspective on the reactivation of dormant Toxocara canis larvae in pregnant bitches and their transmission to fetuses through the placenta, or milk and colostrum to puppies. A historical review was carried out on the reactivation of dormant larvae of T. canis in pregnant bitches which suggested that larval reactivation of T.
