It is stated that in women with the abortion threat at any term of gestation (I, II, III trimesters) the endocrine function of the thymus essentially increases. The role of hormones in the thymic activity disorder is studied. It is shown that insufficiency of the functional activity of the trophoblast ranks first in the mechanism of hormonal regulation of thymic endocrine function in nonbearing of pregnancy. The other significant reason of an essential increase in the titer of thymic serum factor (TFS) is a disorder in interconnections inside the hypophyseal-adrenal system. Determination of TFS and the above hormonal indices can be used as the prognostic test of the pregnancy course.

is a traditional Chinese medicinal herb rich in various bioactive secondary metabolites, such as alkaloids and flavonoids, and exhibits remarkable resistance to abiotic stress. The WRKY transcription factor (TF) family is one of the largest plant-specific TF families and plays a crucial role in plant growth, development, and responses to abiotic stress. However, a comprehensive genome-wide analysis of the WRKY gene family in has not yet been conducted.

Disruption of the MEIG1-PACRG complex can impair sperm development, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target for addressing male infertility or for the development of non-hormonal contraceptive methods. This study used virtual screening, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to identify small molecule inhibitors targeting the MEIG1-PACRG interface.

Various subtypes of EECs produce distinct repertoires of monoamines and neuropeptides which modulate intestinal motility and other physiologies. EECs also possess neuron-like properties, suggesting a potential vulnerability to ingested environmental neurotoxicants.

High levels of DEHP exposure have been linked to adverse pregnancy outcomes, yet little is known about how it affects human uterine functions. We previously reported that the estrogen-regulated transcription factor hypoxia-inducible factor 2 alpha (HIF2α) promotes the expression of Rab27b, which controls the trafficking and secretion of extracellular vesicles (EVs).

However, systemic T depletion, while augmenting anti-tumor responses, also triggers detrimental autoimmune disorders. Thus, dissecting the mechanisms by which T cells navigate and exert their functions within the tumor microenvironment (TME) is pivotal for devising innovative T -centric cancer therapies.
