Thyroid hyperplasia was induced in C3H mice by a low iodine diet feeding supplemented with propylthiouracil. The morphological modifications associated to the development of hyperplasia were analyzed at light microscopical level and the cellular proliferation was studied by autoradiography after a pulse labelling with [3H]thymidine. The initial modification during the course of hyperplasia is the development of the vascularization. It includes the dilatation of the capillaries, which occurs before any extended modification of the follicular cells and any change of the thyroid weight, and the proliferation of endothelial cells which starts earlier than that of follicular cells.

A rare case of primary testicular follicular lymphoma in a pediatric patient.

Testicular follicular lymphoma (TFL) is an exceedingly rare lymphoma that typically occurs in young male patients and is now recognized as a distinct diagnostic entity in the International Consensus Classification. TFL shows some clinicopathologic and genetic overlap with pediatric-type follicular lymphoma (PTFL). We report a case of TFL occurring in an otherwise healthy 4-year-old boy who presented with painless scrotal swelling.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have acquired an increased recognition to unravel the complex molecular mechanisms underlying Diminished Ovarian Reserve (DOR), one of the main responsible for infertility. To investigate the impact of miRNA profiles in granulosa cells and follicular fluid, crucial players in follicle development, this study employed a computational network theory approach to reconstruct potential pathways regulated by miRNAs in granulosa cells and follicular fluid of women suffering from DOR. Available data from published research were collected to create the FGC_MiRNome_MC, a representation of miRNA target genes and their interactions.

Background: Over the past five years, the pregnancy rate in assisted reproductive technology (ART) programs in Russia has remained relatively stable. The aim of this study was to assess the distribution of monocyte and macrophage subsets in the blood and follicular fluid of infertile women undergoing assisted reproductive technology.
Methods: The study involved 45 women with a mean age of 35 ± 4.
Lactate Promotes Hypoxic Granulosa Cells' Autophagy by Activating the HIF-1α/BNIP3/Beclin-1 Signaling Axis.

Background/objectives: The avascular nature of the follicle creates a hypoxic microenvironment, establishing a niche where granulosa cells (GCs) rely on glycolysis to produce energy in the form of lactate (L-lactate). Autophagy, an evolutionarily conserved stress-response process, involves the formation of autophagosomes to encapsulate intracellular components, delivering them to lysosomes for degradation. This process plays a critical role in maintaining optimal follicular development.

Background: Breast cancer is a heterogeneous malignant disease with a varying prognosis and is classified into four molecular subtypes. It remains one of the most prevalent cancers globally, with the tumor microenvironment playing a critical role in disease progression and patient outcomes.
Methods: This study evaluated tumor samples from 40 female patients with luminal A and B breast cancer, utilizing flow cytometry to phenotypically characterize the immune cells and tumor cells present within the tumor tissue.
