Role of autophagy in follicular development and maintenance of primordial follicular pool in the ovary

Jitender K. Bhardwaj et al.

Summary: Follicular development and maintenance of the primordial follicle pool play a crucial role in the reproductive lifespan of an organism, with autophagy serving as a key regulatory mechanism. Dysregulation or mutation of autophagy-related genes can significantly impact follicular development and, consequently, female reproductive health. Various signaling pathways are involved in regulating autophagy in granulosa and oocytes, with mTOR signaling being a primary mechanism.

Urinary phthalate metabolites mixture, serum cytokines and renal function in children: A panel study

Miao Liu et al.

Summary: This panel study found a significant association between certain phthalate metabolites and reduced eGFR in children, with age and weight status possibly modifying these relationships. Additionally, multiple cytokines related to eGFR were increased in the presence of phthalate metabolites, with CCL27 and CXCL1 potentially mediating the association between MEP and eGFR.

Autophagy-mediated degradation of NOTCH1 intracellular domain controls the epithelial to mesenchymal transition and cancer metastasis

Sahib Zada et al.

Summary: This study found that autophagy activation promotes degradation of NICD, a key transcriptional regulator of EMT and cancer metastasis. The study also found that NICD binds directly to LC3 and associates with SNAI1 and SQSTM1/p62 proteins. Activation of autophagy also significantly suppressed cancer cell migration and invasion.

Effects of dibutyl phthalate on lipid metabolism in liver and hepatocytes based on PPARα/SREBP-1c/FAS/GPAT/AMPK signal pathway

Wang Zhang et al.

Summary: The study revealed that DBP can induce fatty liver disease by activating the PPAR alpha signaling pathway and inhibiting AMPK phosphorylation. The results indicated that DBP affects protein expression, leading to hyperlipidemia and abnormal liver function, which can be alleviated through the PPAR alpha/SREBP-1c/FAS/GPAT/AMPK signaling pathway.

Phthalate metabolites: Characterization, toxicities, global distribution, and exposure assessment

Ying-Jie Zhang et al.

Summary: Phthalates, commonly used as plasticizers, have metabolites that may impact human health differently across regions, with Asia, America, and Europe showing variations in exposure levels. Urine is the preferred matrix for assessing phthalate exposure, and more accurate molar fractions of metabolites related to ingested compounds should be collected for different populations in epidemiological or pharmacokinetic studies.

Detrimental effect of Bisphenol S in mouse germ cell cyst breakdown and primordial follicle assembly

Wen-Xiang Liu et al.

Summary: BPS has adverse effects on mouse ovarian folliculogenesis, including disrupting germ cell cyst breakdown, reducing oocyte quality, and increasing granulosa cell precursors proliferation. These findings provide new evidence for the adverse effects of BPS on female reproduction.

AMPK/mTOR downregulated autophagy enhances aberrant endometrial decidualization in folate-deficient pregnant mice

Yan Zhang et al.

Summary: Folate deficiency inhibits autophagy in endometrial cells, leading to impaired endometrial decidualization. It disrupts the AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway, resulting in aberrant endometrial decidualization and adverse pregnancy outcomes. Further research suggests potential causal mechanisms for birth defects induced by folate deficiency.

Roles of the Notch Signaling Pathway in Ovarian Functioning

Shuhan Guo et al.

Summary: The Notch signaling pathway plays a crucial role in regulating ovarian functions, and abnormal activation or downregulation of Notch receptors may disrupt normal physiological functions of the ovary. Notch1 activation has been shown to promote primordial follicle formation and granulosa cell proliferation, making it a potential therapeutic target for premature ovarian failure. Further studies are needed to fully understand the underlying mechanisms of Notch signaling in ovarian dysfunction.

Single-cell transcriptome dissection of the toxic impact of Di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate on primordial follicle assembly

Jun-Jie Wang et al.

Summary: This study used single-cell RNA sequencing to reveal the gene expression dynamics of female germ and granulosa cells following DEHP exposure in mice. DEHP was found to impede follicle assembly progression in germ cells, inhibit proliferative activity in granulosa cells, disrupt transforming growth factor-beta signaling, and elevate DNA damage and apoptosis in both germ and somatic cells. These findings provide new insights into the reproductive toxicity of DEHP exposure and its impact on ovarian cell interactions.
