Title: Genistein Disrupts Glucocorticoid Receptor Signaling in Human Uterine Endometrial Ishikawa Cells
Conclusions: Using Ishikawa cells, we observed that exposure to genistein resulted in distinct changes in gene expression and unique differences in the GR transcriptome.

Characterization of Zika Virus Endocytic Pathways in Human Glioblastoma Cells
Zika virus (ZIKV) infections can cause microcephaly and neurological disorders. However, the early infection events of ZIKV in neural cells remain to be characterized. Here, by using a combination of pharmacological and molecular approaches and the human glioblastoma cell T98G as a model, we first observed that ZIKV infection was inhibited by chloroquine and NH4Cl, indicating a requirement of low intracellular pH. We further showed that dynamin is required as the ZIKV entry was affected by the specific inhibitor dynasore, small interfering RNA (siRNA) knockdown of dynamin, or by expressing the dominant-negative K44A mutant...

Protective effects of marein on high glucose-induced glucose metabolic disorder in HepG2 cells
Conclusions Consequently, marein improved insulin resistance induced by high glucose in HepG2 cells through CaMKK/AMPK/GLUT1 to promote glucose uptake, through IRS/Akt/GSK-3β to increase glycogen synthesis, and through Akt/FoxO1 to decrease gluconeogenesis. Marein could be a promising leading compound for the development of hypoglycemic agent or developed as an adjuvant drug for diabetes mellitus. Graphical abstract

7-Difluoromethoxyl-5,4'-di-n-octyl genistein inhibits the stem-like characteristics of gastric cancer stem-like cells and reverses the phenotype of epithelial-mesenchymal transition in gastric cancer cells.
The objective of the present study was to investigate whether DFOG inhibits the stemness and reverses the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) phenotype of gastric cancer stem-like cells (GCSLCs) derived from human gastric cancer SGC-7901 cells and to identify its potential mechanism. Sphere-forming cells (SFCs) from the SGC-7901 cells possessed the properties of GCSLCs. DFOG preferentially inhibited self-renewal, cell migration and cell invasion, and downregulated the expression of stem cell biomarkers in a dose-dependent manner. At the molecular level, these effects were accompanied by the downregulation of forkhead b...

G protein-coupled estrogen receptor is involved in the anti-inflammatory effects of genistein in microglia
Conclusion Taken together, these data provide the first evidence that genistein exerts anti-inflammatory effects in microglial cells via GPER activation. These beneficial effects of genistein may represent a new strategy for the treatment of neuroinflammatory diseases. Graphical abstract

Levobupivacaine-induced vasoconstriction involves caldesmon phosphorylation mediated by tyrosine kinase-induced ERK phosphorylation.
Abstract The goals of this study were to examine the cellular signaling pathways associated with the phosphorylation of caldesmon, the phosphorylation-dependent inhibitory protein of myosin phosphatase (CPI-17), and the 20-kDa regulatory light chain of myosin (MLC20) induced by levobupivacaine in isolated rat aortas. The effects of genistein, tyrphostin 23, GF109203X, PD98059, Y-27632, 1-butanol, and ML-7 HCl on levobupivacaine-induced contraction were assessed. The effect of genistein on the simultaneous calcium-tension curves induced by levobupivacaine was examined. The effects of GF109203X, genistein, PD98059 a...
