New treatment strategies for uterine sarcoma using secreted frizzled ‑related proteins
In conclusion, SFRP4 may suppress the viability and migration, and enhance the adhesion of sarcoma cells. These results suggested that SFRP4 could be considered as a novel therapeutic target for uterine sarcoma.PMID:38628655 | PMC:PMC11019650 | DOI:10.3892/etm.2024.12520 (Source: Experimental and Therapeutic Medicine)

Investigating the shared genetic architecture between breast and ovarian cancers
Genet Mol Biol. 2024 Apr 15;47(2):e20230181. doi: 10.1590/1678-4685-GMB-2023-0181. eCollection 2024.ABSTRACTHigh heritability and strong correlation have been observed in breast and ovarian cancers. However, their shared genetic architecture remained unclear. Linkage disequilibrium score regression (LDSC) and heritability estimation from summary statistics (ρ-HESS) were applied to estimate heritability and genetic correlations. Bivariate causal mixture model (MiXeR) was used to qualify the polygenic overlap. Then, stratified-LDSC (S-LDSC) was used to identify tissue and cell type specificity. Meanwhile, the adaptive assoc...

Outcomes after fertility ‐sparing surgery of early‐stage ovarian cancer: A nationwide population‐based study
ConclusionFSS can be a safe alternative procedure in selected young patients of Stage I EOC who have fertility desire. Endometrial biopsy before or during FSS and regular surveillance to detect recurrence are mandatory for ovarian cancer patients undergoing FSS. (Source: Cancer Medicine)

Shear wave elastography to assess stiffness of the human ovary and other reproductive tissues across the reproductive lifespan in health and disease †
In this study, we review the underlying principles of shear wave elastography and its current clinical uses outside the reproductive tract as well as its successful application of shear wave elastography to reproductive tissues, including the uterus and cervix. We also describe an emerging use of this technology in evaluation of human ovarian stiffness via transvaginal ultrasound. Establishing ovarian stiffness as a clinical biomarker of ovarian aging may have implications for predicting the ovarian reserve and outcomes of Assisted Reproductive Technologies as well as for the assessment of the efficacy of emerging therapeu...
