- The extensive application of bisphenol A (BPA), an endocrine-disrupting substance in polymer-based products and consumer commodities, has sparked concerns over its carcinogenic potential. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying BPA-induced gastric carcinogenesis remain poorly understood. We used network toxicology and molecular docking analysis to uncover the pivotal targets and mechanisms underlying BPA-associated gastric carcinogenesis. Potential BPA-related targets and differentially expressed genes in gastric cancer (GC) were collected from publicly available databases to identify hub genes. A prognostic risk assessment model utilizing hub genes, with molecular docking simulations, was performed to confirm the binding interactions between BPA and target proteins. A total of 27 potential targets associated with both BPA exposure and GC were identified. The protein-protein interaction network analysis revealed 19 hub genes, with core targets including MMP9, ADRB2, PTGS1, SLC6A4, ERBB2, MAPT, AR, SLC6A3, CNR1, PDE5A, DRD2, KCNH2, MC4R, CALCR, CHRM1, ADRB3, CXCR2, MMP1, and SHBG. Enrichment analysis demonstrated these hub genes were significantly involved in neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction, calcium signaling pathway, cGMP-PKG signaling pathway, and chemical carcinogenesis-receptor activation pathways. Prognostic analysis identified six hub genes (CALCR, ADRB3, CNR1, HRH2, KCNH2, and AR) significantly associated with patient survival. Molecular docking simulations demonstrated robust interaction affinities of BPA with the identified core target proteins. This study reveals that BPA may influence GC development and progression through multiple targets and signaling pathways, particularly involving G protein-coupled receptor signaling, hormone regulation, and neurological pathways. - Source: PubMed

Yu Wen-YanZhang Yue - Most studies on the impact of vitamin D on sex hormones focus on specific populations, such as older males, Asian males, or those with certain health conditions. Limited evidence exists on the relationship between vitamin D and sex hormones in American women. This cross-sectional analysis used National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) data to explore the association between serum vitamin D levels and sex hormones levels in women. Data from NHANES (2021-2023) were analyzed. Participants were categorized by serum vitamin D levels: Deficient (<50 nmol/L), Insufficient (50-74.99 nmol/L), and Adequate ( ≥ 75 nmol/L). One-way ANOVA and Chi-square tests were used for comparisons, and linear regression evaluated associations. Our analysis specifically focused on a subset of 3181 women aged 18 years and older (18-80 years). Women in the adequate vitamin D group had lower body mass index (BMI) (29.16 vs. 32.10 kg/m², p < 0.001), lower total testosterone (24.10 vs. 32.28 ng/dL, p < 0.001), progesterone (139.05 vs. 229.73 ng/dL, p < 0.001), estrone sulfate (687.10 vs. 1023.08 pg/mL, p < 0.001), and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS) (66.41 vs. 100.56 µg/dL, p < 0.001) compared to the deficient vitamin D group. They also had higher sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) (70.37 vs. 58.55 nmol/L, p < 0.001), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) (50.30 vs. 23.99 mIU/mL, p < 0.001), and luteinizing hormone (LH) (26.39 vs. 16.64 mIU/mL, p < 0.001) compared to the deficient vitamin D group. Linear regression revealed that higher serum vitamin D was inversely associated with 17α-hydroxyprogesterone (Beta = -0.85, P = 0.023), androstenedione (Beta = -0.181, p < 0.001), anti-Müllerian hormone (Beta = -0.238, p < 0.001), DHEAS (Beta = -0.204, p < 0.001), total testosterone (Beta = -0.080, P = 0.042), while showing a positive association with follicle-stimulating hormone (Beta = 0.260, p < 0.001) and luteinizing hormone (Beta = 0.208, p < 0.001). Serum vitamin D levels were negatively associated with testosterone and estradiol in American women, particularly in older individuals. - Source: PubMed

Ceylan Mediha KübraÖz Ömer FarukErsoy Benan KahramanYavuz AyşeAtmaca Fatma - Cannabidiol (CBD) use has increased substantially in the United States alongside expanding legalization of cannabis and hemp-derived products. CBD is widely marketed for recovery, sleep, stress reduction, and overall well-being, yet evidence supporting these claims in healthy, physically active populations remains limited and mixed. Most controlled trials have been conducted in predominantly male cohorts, and emerging data suggest potential sex differences in CBD pharmacokinetics, underscoring the need to characterize female users. - Source: PubMed
