Abstracts of Presentations at the Association of Clinical Scientists 143 < sup > rd < /sup > Meeting Louisville, KY May 11-14,2022
Conclusion: These assays are suitable for routine diagnostic. The UltraFast NextGenPCR is the fastest with average time (30mins), followed by Agilent (2 hrs) and MassArray (6hrs). Upon completion of this activity, participants should be able to examine, measure and compare results from different assays for SARS detection, evaluate and diagnose accurately, as well as being able to plan, organize and recommend a diagnostic procedure for diagnostic laboratory. Key words: SARS-CoV-2, RNA extraction, RT-PCR, limit of detection, quantification cycle, COVID-19, in vitro diagnostic tests, Agilent, Massarray, Ultrafast. [20] From t...

Metformin Regulates TET2 Expression to Inhibit Endometrial Carcinoma Proliferation: A New Mechanism
ConclusionsTET2 may play an important role in EC development and may be a prognostic marker. Moreover, TET2 may be involved in a novel mechanism by which metformin inhibits EC cell proliferation.

Combination simvastatin and metformin synergistically inhibits endometrial cancer cell growth.
CONCLUSIONS: MET+SIM treatment synergistically inhibits endometrial cancer cell viability. This may be mediated by apoptosis and mTOR pathway inhibition. Our results provide preclinical evidence that the combination of these well-tolerated drugs may warrant further clinical investigation for endometrial cancer treatment.

Metformin inhibits estrogen ‐dependent endometrial cancer cell growth by activating the AMPK–FOXO1 signal pathway
This study provide a novel mechanism of anti‐neoplastic effect for metformin through the regulation of FOXO1, and suggest that AMPK‐FOXO1 pathway may be a therapeutic target to the development of new anti‐neoplastic drugs.

The roles of tricellular tight junction protein lipolysis-stimulated lipoprotein receptor in malignancy of human endometrial cancer cells.
Authors: Shimada H, Satohisa S, Kohno T, Takahashi S, Hatakeyama T, Konno T, Tsujiwaki M, Saito T, Kojima T Abstract Lipolysis-stimulated lipoprotein receptor (LSR) has been identified as a novel molecular constituent of tricellular contacts that have a barrier function for the cellular sheet. LSR recruits tricellulin (TRIC), which is the first molecular component of tricellular tight junctions. Knockdown of LSR increases cell motility and invasion of certain cancer cells. However, the behavior and the roles of LSR in endometrial cancer remain unknown. In the present study, we investigated the behavior and roles of...
