Metabolic transformations in breast cancer subtypes
Background Heterogeneity of cancer poses a huge challenge for selecting effective treatment. Gene expression data has helped identify different subtypes also of breast cancer [1] which has led to improved patient stratification and therapeutic strategies. However, treatment of the triple negative (TNBC) subtype, which develops independent of hormone and other receptors, still remains challengin...
متن کاملPrediction of Metabolic Transformations using Cross Venn-ABERS Predictors
Prediction of drug metabolism is an important topic in the drug discovery process, and we here present a study using probabilistic predictions applying Cross Venn-ABERS Predictors (CVAPs) on data for site-of-metabolism. We used a dataset of 73599 biotransformations, applied SMIRKS to define biotransformations of interest and constructed five datasets where chemical structures were represented u...
متن کاملSex-specific action of insulin to acutely increase the metabolic clearance rate of dehydroepiandrosterone in humans.
To test the hypothesis that insulin acutely enhances the metabolic clearance rate (MCR) of dehydroepiandrosterone in humans, the effect of a short-term insulin infusion on the MCR of dehydroepiandrosterone was assessed in 10 men and 7 women. After an overnight fast, dehydroepiandrosterone was infused at 3.47 mumol/h for 6.5 h. At 240 min, a hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp was begun by infusin...
متن کاملDHEA: dehydroepiandrosterone.
Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and its active metabolite, DHEA sulfate (DHEAS), are endogenous hormones synthesized and excreted primarily by the zona reticularis of the adrenal cortex in response to adrenocorticotropic hormone. The exact mechanism of action and clinical role, if any, of DHEA and DHEAS remain unclear. Epidemiological data indicate an inverse relationship between serum DHEA and D...
متن کاملEffects of dehydroepiandrosterone on growth performance, lipid metabolic hormones and parameters in broilers
One hundred and eighty (180) day-old broiler chickens were used to investigate the effects of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) on growth performance, carcass composition, and the serum concentrations of several lipid metabolic hormones and metabolic parameters (indicators). The broilers received the same basal diets, with DHEA added at 0 (control), 5 and 20 mg/kg feed. During the experimental peri...
