Review, Journal: Targeting the PI3K Pathway in Gynecologic Malignancies. (Pubmed Central) - Nov 20, 2022 In gynecologic malignancies, alterations in PI3K signaling are common. Therefore, developing modulators of the PI3K pathway and identifying molecular markers to predict response are of great interest for these cancer types.

Journal: Obesity and metabolic syndrome are associated with short-term endocrine therapy resistance in early ER + breast cancer. (Pubmed Central) - Nov 19, 2022 This fully oral, chemotherapy-free, triplet combined therapy has the potential to be an alternative neoadjuvant regimen for patients with TPBC. Our findings suggest the association between obesity/metabolic syndrome and breast cancer recurrence is better reflected by response to treatment than tumor-intrinsic properties, suggesting interventions to reverse obesity and/or MS may improve outcomes for breast cancer recurrence.

Preclinical, Journal: Acetate: A therapeutic candidate against renal disorder in a rat model of polycystic ovarian syndrome. (Pubmed Central) - Nov 19, 2022 Eight-week-old female Wistar rats were randomly distributed into four groups (n = 6), which received vehicle, sodium acetate (200 mg/kg), letrozole (1 mg/kg) and letrozole plus sodium acetate, respectively...However, supplementation with acetate significantly attenuated these anomalies. Collectively, the present results suggest that acetate abolishes renal dysfunction in experimentally induced PCOS animals by attenuating androgen excess, apoptosis, oxidative stress and NF-κB/NLRP3 immunoreactivity.

Retrospective data, Review, Journal: Future Perspectives of Ectopic Pregnancy Treatment-Review of Possible Pharmacological Methods. (Pubmed Central) - Nov 16, 2022 Another promising substance in EP treatment is gefitinib, an inhibitor of EGFR tyrosine domain which, combined with MTX, seems to constitute a more effective alternative in the management of tubal ectopic pregnancies...Absolute ethanol injections proved successful and safe in caesarean scar pregnancies management. Thus far, little is known about the use of those substances in the treatment of ectopic pregnancies, but already conducted studies seem to be promising.

Preclinical, Journal: Androgen receptors immunoreactivity in the rat brain of males with same-sex preference. (Pubmed Central) - Nov 15, 2022 Same-sex preference was produced in male rats by the prenatal administration of the aromatase inhibitor, letrozole (0.56 μg/kg/ml s.c. G10-22) that usually produces 1-2 animals per litter with same sex preference, while the others retain a female sex preference...Serum levels of testosterone did not differ between groups. Data are discussed based on the role of AR in the hippocampus.

Management of precocious puberty in girls with McCune–Albright syndrome (Rome, Italy) - Nov 13, 2022 - Abstract #ESPE2022ESPE_1536; At 6 months of treatment, on the other hand, the number of thyroid nodules increased from 5 to 3 months to 8 to 6 months of treatment, the thyroid balance remained normal. McCune-Albright is a rare cause of peripheral puberty, easy to diagnose due to the association of the triad of precocious puberty, bone fibrous dysplasia and café au lait spot, the treatment is generally disappointing, unlike our patient who presented an excellent response but the stature prognosis is always at stake and does not constitute an indication for treatment with growth hormone.

Long-term follow-up of aromatase-inhibitor use in 3 family members with aromatase excess syndrome (Rome, Italy) - Nov 13, 2022 - Abstract #ESPE2022ESPE_997; When started early, treatment with aromatase inhibitors in children with AEXS was found to prevent the development of gynecomastia and improve final height. In adult life, treatment with aromatase inhibitors in a very low dose resulted in improved physical strength and libido.

All three patients had appropriate pubertal progression, normal ovarian ultrasounds, and normal bone mineral density accrual.

Journal: Effect of Aromatase Inhibitors on Serum Calprotectin Levels in an Animal Experimental Model: Trial. (Pubmed Central) - Nov 8, 2022 Further studies are needed to determine whether EHR data can yield reliable conclusions on treatment effects in oncology. The potential of hepatotoxicity can be examined by assessing the elevation of inflammation markers such as Calprotectin, which is an indicator that should be strictly taken into consideration when administering aromatase inhibitors as treatment.
