Journal ArticleDOI

Exosomes Released from Tumor-Associated Macrophages Transfer miRNAs That Induce a Treg/Th17 Cell Imbalance in Epithelial Ovarian Cancer.

TL;DR: Results indicate that exosomes mediate the interaction between TAMs and T cells, generating an immune-suppressive microenvironment that facilitates EOC progression and metastasis, and suggest that targeting these exosome or their associated miRNAs might pave the way for the development of novel treatments for EOC.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exosomes From Women With Preeclampsia Induced Vascular Dysfunction by Delivering sFlt (Soluble Fms-Like Tyrosine Kinase)-1 and sEng (Soluble Endoglin) to Endothelial Cells.

TL;DR: It is proposed that exosomes mediated efficient transfer of sFlt-1 and sEng to endothelial cells to damage vascular functions and induce complications in preeclampsia patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Isolation and Characterization of Cancer Stem Cells from High-Grade Serous Ovarian Carcinomas

TL;DR: Results revealed that HGSCs are created and propagated by a small number of undifferentiated tumorigenic cells, and therapeutic targeting of these cells could be beneficial for treatment of HG SCs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Expression of aryl hydrocarbon receptor in human placentas and fetal tissues.

TL;DR: Examination of AhR protein expression in human placentas from normal and severe preeclamptic pregnancies, as well as human fetal tissues from the second trimester of pregnancy, suggests that the AhR plays a critical role in syncytiotrophoblasts of human Placentas and epithelium of many fetal organs.
Journal ArticleDOI

An endogenous aryl hydrocarbon receptor ligand inhibits proliferation and migration of human ovarian cancer cells

TL;DR: It is found that AhR was widely present in many histotypes of ovarian cancer tissues, and the ITE might potentially be used for therapeutic intervention for at least a subset of human ovarian cancer.
