Article Abstract
Steroid hormones play critical roles in the development and progression of NSCLC through both genomic and non-genomic pathways. This review summarizes the expression profiles and molecular functions of estrogen, progesterone, androgen, and glucocorticoid receptors in NSCLC. Estrogen and progesterone receptors exhibit gender-specific prognostic significance, while glucocorticoid receptors influence tumor growth and immune responses. Emerging evidence supports the use of anti-estrogen therapies and glucocorticoids as adjuncts to existing treatment strategies, including immunotherapy. The crosstalk between hormone signaling and oncogenic pathways such as EGFR or immune checkpoints offers opportunities for novel combination therapies. However, challenges remain in biomarker development, drug resistance, and managing the dual effects of glucocorticoids. A deeper understanding of hormone-tumor-immune interactions is essential to optimize hormone-targeted interventions in NSCLC.

Changes in antral follicle dynamics following weight loss in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
Hum Reprod
September 2025
Division of Nutritional Sciences, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY, USA.
Study Question: Does weight loss from a hypocaloric dietary intervention improve antral follicle dynamics in women with PCOS?
Summary Answer: During a 3-month hypocaloric dietary intervention, women with PCOS who experienced clinically meaningful weight loss showed more organized antral follicle development including fewer recruitment events, but no change in the overall frequency of selection, dominance, or ovulation.
What Is Known Already: There is a spectrum of disordered antral follicle development in women with PCOS including excessive follicle recruitment and turnover, decreased frequency of selection and dominance, and failure of ovulation. Lifestyle intervention aimed at weight loss is recommended to improve metabolic health in women with PCOS yet benefits on ovarian follicle development and ovulation are unclear.
4-aminopyridine exerts anxiolytic and pro-cognitive effects in mice model of medial prefrontal cortex ischemia.

Brain ischemia is a major global cause of disability, frequently leading to psychoneurological issues. This study investigates the effects of 4-aminopyridine (4-AP) on anxiety, cognitive impairment, and potential underlying mechanisms in a mouse model of medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) ischemia. Mice with mPFC ischemia were treated with normal saline (NS) or different doses of 4-AP (250, 500, and 1000 µg/kg) for 14 consecutive days.

Inhaled and intranasal corticosteroids are widely used in the management of allergic respiratory diseases. Delayed drug hypersensitivity reactions to budesonide are a rare adverse drug reaction characterized by non-immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated clinical manifestations, including localized or systemic contact dermatitis, mucosal edema, and paradoxical worsening of pre-existing symptoms. However, such reactions are often underdiagnosed due to atypical presentations.

Anesth Prog
September 2025
Objective: The purpose of this study was to compare nitrous oxide (N2O) vs virtual reality (VR) as methods for reducing pain and anxiety during a dental injection. The primary objectives were to assess acute changes in stress responses by comparing salivary cortisol levels between the 2 groups and differences in injection pain scores.
Methods: A total of 132 female subjects serving as their own control received maxillary lateral incisor infiltration injections with the use of either N2O or a VR headset during separate appointments spaced at least 2 weeks apart.
White kidney bean extract improves letrozole-induced polycystic ovary syndrome in rats by regulating the Wnt signaling pathway.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is an endocrine-metabolic disorder characterized by ovarian dysfunction, with limited effective treatments. This study investigates the therapeutic effects and mechanisms of white kidney bean extract (WKBE) in a PCOS rat model. A PCOS model was established using letrozole, followed by intervention with varying doses of WKBE.
