Abstract Tamoxifen resistance is emerging as a big challenge in endocrine therapy of luminal A breast cancer patients. In this study, we aimed to determine the molecular changes PI3K/AKT/PTEN signaling pathway during tamoxifen-resistance development using gradually increased doses tamoxifen one model, while fixing treatment dose at 35 μM for several times second model. An upregulation AKT/PI3K genes was noticed 30 concentration cells treated with gradual increase doses. significant AKT1 seen...

Tamoxifen is commonly used in the treatment of hormonal-positive breast cancer. However, 30%-40% tumors treated with tamoxifen develop resistance; therefore, an important step to overcome this resistance understand underlying molecular and metabolic mechanisms. In present work, we profiling determine potential biomarkers resistance, gene expression levels enzymes these metabolites then correlated survival patients receiving tamoxifen.

Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is a key enzyme in the last step of glycolysis, playing role pyruvate-to-lactate reaction. It associated with prognosis and metastasis many cancers, including breast cancer. In this study, we investigated changes LDH gene expression lactate concentrations culture media during tamoxifen resistance development MCF-7 cell line, examined LDHB promoter methylation levels. An upregulation 2.9 times was observed around IC50 concentration treated cells, while fluctuation...

Cigarette smoke withdrawal can cause anxiety-like behavior and modulate neurotransmitter-related proteins in the brain. We examined effects of cigarette with without aspirin treatment on concentrations neurotransmitters, including dopamine, serotonin, glutamate, glutamine, GABA amygdala hippocampus. Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to four different groups: (1) control group exposed only standard room air, (2) treated saline vehicle, (3) (30 mg/kg), (4) mg/kg). exposure was...

Abstract Early stage pharmacological studies rely on in vitro methodologies for screening and testing compounds. Conventional assays based endpoint measurements provide limited information because the lack temporal resolution may not determine effect at its maximum. We developed an on-line, automated system near real-time monitoring of extracellular content from five parallel suspension cultures, combining cell density with a high-resolution separations every 12 minutes 4 days. Selector...
