As we age, our tissues are repeatedly challenged by mutational insult, yet cancer occurrence is a relatively rare event. Cells carrying cancer-causing genetic mutations compete with normal neighbors for space and survival in tissues. However, the mechanisms underlying mutant-normal competition adult relevance of this process to remain incompletely understood. Here, investigate how pancreas maintains tissue health vivo following sporadic expression oncogenic Kras (KrasG12D), key driver...

Kisspeptin is a recently identified hormone encoded by the KISS1 gene, playing critical role in human reproduction. Plasma kisspeptin levels rise dramatically during normal pregnancy due to placental synthesis, which implicates it as potential tool for assessing risks of complications. No previous prospective study has investigated association between plasma and risk miscarriage.The objective was determine whether single or serum chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) measurement asymptomatic women...

The widespread use of potent androgen receptor signaling inhibitors (ARSIs) has led to an increasing emergence AR-independent castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), typically driven by loss AR expression, lineage plasticity, and transformation cancers (PCs) that exhibit phenotypes neuroendocrine or basal-like cells. anti-apoptotic protein BCL2 is upregulated in may be a therapeutic target for this aggressive PC disease subset. There unmet clinical need, therefore, clinically...
