Journal ArticleDOI
Sperm-borne microRNA-34c is required for the first cleavage division in mouse
Weimin Liu,Ronald T.K. Pang,Philip C.N. Chiu,Benancy P.C. Wong,Kaiqin Lao,Kai-Fai Lee,William S.B. Yeung +6 more
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that sperm-borne miR-34c is important for the first cell division via modulation of Bcl-2 expression in the zygotes through modulation of UTR luciferase activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
MicroRNA-34a suppresses invasion through downregulation of Notch1 and Jagged1 in cervical carcinoma and choriocarcinoma cells.
Ronald T.K. Pang,Carmen O.N. Leung,Tian-Min Ye,Weimin Liu,Philip C.N. Chiu,Kevin K.W. Lam,Kai-Fai Lee,William S.B. Yeung +7 more
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that miR-34a inhibits invasiveness through regulation of the Notch pathway and its downstream matrix degrading enzyme.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prolactin Receptor Expression in the Developing Human Prostate and in Hyperplastic, Dysplastic, and Neoplastic Lesions
Irwin Leav,Frederick B. Merk,Kai-Fai Lee,Massimo Loda,Mira Mandoki,John E. McNeal,Shuk-Mei Ho +6 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that prolactin action plays a role in the development and maintenance of the human prostate and may also participate in early neoplastic transformation of the gland.
Journal ArticleDOI
Glycodelin-S in Human Seminal Plasma Reduces Cholesterol Efflux and Inhibits Capacitation of Spermatozoa
Philip C.N. Chiu,MK Chung,Heng-Yan Tsang,Riitta Koistinen,Hannu Koistinen,Markku Seppälä,Kai-Fai Lee,William S.B. Yeung +7 more
TL;DR: Glycodelin-S in seminal plasma maintains the uncapacitated state of human spermatozoa, indicating that the carbohydrate moiety of glycodelin -S is critical for the function of the molecule.
Journal ArticleDOI
Testicular Signaling Is the Potential Target of Perfluorooctanesulfonate-Mediated Subfertility in Male Mice
H. T. Wan,Y. G. Zhao,Ming Hung Wong,Kai-Fai Lee,Wsb Yeung,John P. Giesy,John P. Giesy,Chris K C Wong +7 more
TL;DR: The effects of PFOS on testicular signaling, such as gonadotropin, growth hormone, insulin-like growth factor, and inhibins/activins were shown to be directly related to male subfertility for the first time.
