Human exposure to a mixture of endocrine disruptors and serum levels of thyroid hormones: A cross-sectional study

Bing Yue et al.

Summary: This study investigated the associations between multiple chemicals and thyroid hormones among adults in China. The findings revealed a significant negative correlation between bisphenol F (BPF) and thyroid hormones, while certain phthalate metabolites were positively associated with thyroid hormones. The mixture analysis suggested that BPF might be the main contributor to the disruption of thyroid function in humans exposed to multiple endocrine disruptors.

Non-coding RNAs in human health and disease: potential function as biomarkers and therapeutic targets

Tamizhini Loganathan et al.

Summary: Human diseases pose a significant threat throughout history, and understanding their origin, progression, and treatment is crucial. The microscopic analysis of the molecular field provides a more coherent and accurate approach to explore disease mechanisms, progression, and therapy compared to a macroscopic approach. Non-coding RNAs play increasingly important roles in detecting, developing, and treating abnormalities in physiology, pathology, genetics, epigenetics, cancer, and developmental diseases. This study review focuses on the significance of non-coding RNA as specific biomarkers and novel therapeutic targets in various diseases.

Interplay between Lignans and Gut Microbiota: Nutritional, Functional and Methodological Aspects

Simone Baldi et al.

Summary: Lignans are non-flavonoid polyphenols found in many commonly consumed Western foods. The human gut microbiota can convert these lignans into biologically active compounds, which have various beneficial effects on human health. Recent studies have shown that foods rich in lignans can help prevent diseases such as cancer and cardiovascular diseases. However, the bioactivation of lignans can vary among individuals, so accurate analytical methods are needed for their measurement. This review summarizes the roles of lignans, their interaction with the gut microbiota, and the new methodologies for their evaluation.

Communication of gut microbiota and brain via immune and neuroendocrine signaling

Kaja Kasarello et al.

Summary: The human gastrointestinal tract is inhabited by a large number of bacteria, archaea, fungi, and viruses. The gut microbiota influences the host organism and vice versa through immune, neural, and endocrine signaling pathways. Immune communication relies on cytokines, while neural communication occurs through the vagus nerve and the enteric nervous system. Endocrine communication involves the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis. This review focuses on the role of neurotransmitters, intestinal peptides, and bacterial metabolites in inter-organ communication mediated by the gut microbiota.

Summary: The present study provides a narrative review of the molecular mechanisms of Western diet-induced obesity and obesity-related carcinogenesis. Most of the molecular mechanisms that induce obesity are also involved in the twelve Hallmarks of Cancer. Obesity-associated carcinogenesis is closely related to metabolic syndrome, hypoxia, visceral adipose tissue dysfunction, oestrogen synthesis, and detrimental cytokine, adipokine, and exosomal miRNA release. Effective weight loss interventions may improve the future incidence of overall and obesity-associated cancer.

Summary: ERRs, including alpha, beta, and gamma subtypes, are members of the nuclear receptor superfamily with high homology to estrogen receptor alpha, although they cannot bind endogenous hormones. Recent studies have shown close associations of ERRs with hormone-related cancers and metabolic disorders, focusing on subcellular dynamics involved in transcriptional regulation. Their unique transregulation mechanisms respond to extracellular stimuli, suggesting an adaptive system behind cellular homeostatic regulation by orphan NRs.

It also contributes to long-term recovery of neurological outcomes and reduces oxidative stress and neuroinflammation. Additionally, genistein increases cell viability, reverses neuronal injury, and decreases cell apoptosis after oxygen-glucose deprivation/reperfusion (OGD/R) injury. The neuroprotective effects of genistein are mediated through the Nrf2/HO-1 and NF-kappa B signaling pathways.

In contrast, polycystic ovary syndrome is associated with high prenatal testosterone levels, showing opposite major causes and correlates. The study offers new insights for diagnosis, research, and treatment of endometriosis.

Adverse fetal environments may impact the lifelong health of offspring, with exposure to endocrine disrupting chemicals during fetal development leading to a range of negative health outcomes. The effect of prenatal EDCs exposure on cardio-metabolic-renal health involves complex mechanisms such as epigenetic changes and hormonal imprinting, warranting further investigation into similar environmental stressors.

Estrogen- and Progesterone (P4)-Mediated Epigenetic Modifications of Endometrial Stromal Cells (EnSCs) and/or Mesenchymal Stem/Stromal Cells (MSCs) in the Etiopathogenesis of Endometriosis

Dariusz Szukiewicz et al.

Summary: Endometriosis is a common chronic inflammatory condition characterized by endometrial tissue appearing outside the uterine cavity, affecting up to 15% of reproductive aged women. The etiopathogenesis of endometrial lesions remains unclear, but dysfunction of stem cells is suspected to play a significant role in their formation. Excess estrogen exposure and progesterone resistance in the endometrial/endometriotic tissue are crucial, and targeting MSCs and EnSCs for epigenetic therapies may hold promise for prevention and treatment.
