Injection of estradiol (E2) into immature rainbow trout resulted in the induction of the hepatic vitellogenin gene mediated by the nuclear estrogen receptor (ER). Liver ER mRNA rose markedly on E2 treatment in three groups of trout kept at different temperatures. Only in the group kept at 4 degrees C did the total cellular ER, as measured by [3H]estradiol-binding activity in nuclear and cytosol fractions, parallel the ER mRNA level. In fish kept at 9 degrees C and 15 degrees C, the ratio of total ER activity to ER mRNA fell during chronic E2 treatment, probably reflecting translational of post-translational control mechanisms. Upregulation of ER mRNA also occurred in sea raven, sculpin, winter flounder, and Atlantic salmon after E2 treatment. Intrahepatic ER activity rose proportionately in Atlantic salmon kept at 6-9 degrees C but not in sea raven, sculpin, or flounder. We conclude that the regulation of ER expression in teleosts is complex and includes transcriptional, translational, and post-translational elements and is influenced by environmental temperature.

Evaluation of the role of circular RNA (circ-FAF1) as a diagnostic biomarker for breast cancer in a cohort of Egyptian breast cancer patients.

Background: The identification of circulating potential biomarkers may help earlier diagnosis of breast cancer, which is critical for effective treatment and better disease outcomes. We aimed to study the role of circ-FAF1 as a diagnostic biomarker in female breast cancer using peripheral blood samples of these patients, and to investigate the relation between circ-FAF1 and different clinicopathological features of the included patients.
Methods And Results: This case-control study enrolled 60 female breast cancer patients and 60 age-matched healthy control subjects.
Ongoing Symptoms and Concerns Experienced by Low-Risk Breast Cancer Survivors Following Active Treatment.

Introduction: Little is known about the symptom burden of breast cancer survivors with early-stage disease. Many studies have focused on symptoms of patients who are undergoing or recently completed systemic therapy. However, with the increased use of Oncotype DX, the proportion of early-stage hormone receptor-positive patients who undergo chemotherapy has declined, making existing studies of the symptom experience less useful for these patients.

Background: We sought to evaluate prognostic factors in human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive metastatic breast cancer (MBC) and their relationship with short- and long-term overall survival (OS).
Methods: Using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database, we evaluated patients with de novo HER2-positive MBC diagnosed from 2010 to 2018. Univariate analyses were performed to determine effect of each variable on OS.

Given the absence of estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (Her-2) in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells, the efficacy of targeted therapies is limited. In this study, we uncovered that triptolide (TP) effectively suppresses the migration and invasiveness of MDA-MB-231 cells by activating autophagic pathways. Western blotting analysis revealed that TP significantly reduced the expression levels of p62 protein, while simultaneously markedly increasing the expression levels of LC3B-II, BNIP3, BNIP3L, ATG5, and ULK1 proteins, strongly suggesting an enhancement of autophagic activity in the cells.

Background: Migraine is a highly prevalent and incapacitating neurological disorder mostly characterised by recurring attacks of moderate to severe throbbing and pulsating pain on one side of the head. The role of estrogen in migraine has been well documented. Although genetic variations in the ESR1 gene have been associated with an increased risk of developing migraine, the findings are inconsistent.
