Effects of Atrazine on Estrogen Receptor α– and G Protein–Coupled Receptor 30–Mediated Signaling and Proliferation in Cancer Cells and Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts Objectives: We aimed to evaluate the potential of atrazine to trigger GPER-mediated signaling in cancer cells and cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs).

GPER signalling in both cancerassociated fibroblasts and breast cancer cells mediates a feedforward IL1β/IL1R1 response Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) as main players within the tumor microenvironment contribute to the growth, expansion and dissemination of cancer cells. For instance, CAFs generate a dynamic signalling network through the secretion of several factors that …

GPER1 is regulated by insulin in cancer cells and cancer-associated fibroblasts Elevated insulin levels have been associated with an increased cancer risk as well as with aggressive and metastatic cancer phenotypes characterized by a poor prognosis. Insulin stimulates the proliferation, migration, and invasiveness of cancer cells through diverse transduction pathways, …

Skin-Sparing Mastectomy with Immediate Breast and Nipple Reconstruction: A New Technique of Nipple Reconstruction Mastectomy represents the treatment of choice for approximately one-third of women with breast cancer due to aggressive, extensive, or multicentric tumour growth, contraindications for radiotherapy, or following the patient’s wish.

Bisphenol A Induces Gene Expression Changes and Proliferative Effects through GPER in Breast Cancer Cells and Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts Methods and results: We used as a model system SKBR3 breast cancer cells and CAFs that lack the classical ERs. Specific pharmacological inhibitors and gene-silencing procedures were used to show that BPA …

G-Protein–Coupled Receptor 30 and Estrogen Receptor-α Are Involved in the Proliferative Effects Induced by Atrazine in Ovarian Cancer Cells METHODS AND RESULTS: Atrazine did not transactivate the endogenous ERα in different cancer cell contexts or chimeric proteins encoding the ERα and ERβ hormone-binding domain in gene reporter assays. Moreover, atrazine …

In ambito sanitario, il trattamento di un problema di salute richiede frequentemente il contributo di più attori all’interno di un sistema multi-interdisciplinare. L’approccio per processi, insito nella strutturazione di un Percorso Diagnostico Terapeutico Assistenziale (PDTA), permette di valutare la congruità delle attività svolte rispetto agli obiettivi, alle linee guida di …
