Approximately 25% of breast cancers do not express the estrogen receptor-a (ERa) and consequently do not respond to endocrine therapy. In these tumors, ERa repression is often due to epigenetic modifications such as methylation and histone deacetylation. For this reason, we investigated the ability of the histone deacetylase inhibitor entinostat (ENT) to trigger reexpression of ERa and aromatas...
BACKGROUND Adding clomiphene citrate (CC) to FSH for controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) decreases FSH dose required for optimum stimulation. However, because of its anti-estrogenic effects, CC may be associated with lower pregnancy rates offsetting the FSH-dose reduction benefit. Previously, we reported the success of aromatase inhibition in inducing ovulation without antiestrogenic effects. ...
Testosterone has been shown to worsen histological and neurological impairment during cerebral ischemia in animal models. Cell culture studies revealed that testosterone is implicated in protecting neural and glial cells against insults, and they started to elucidate testosterone pathways that underlie these protective effects. These studies support the hypothesis that testosterone can be neuro...

Although aromatase inhibitors are standard endocrine therapy for postmenopausal women with early-stage metastatic estrogen-dependent breast cancer, they are limited by the development of drug resistance. A better understanding of this process is critical towards designing novel strategies for disease management. Previously, we demonstrated a global proteomic signature of letrozole-resistance as...
Background The optimal stimulation protocol for poor responder patients is a therapeutic challenge. GnRH antagonist protocol has been proposed as a potentially proper option for poor responders. Nevertheless, there is no significant difference in terms of clinical pregnancy and cancellation rates be tween the GnRH antagonist and agonist cycles. Therefore, this subset of patients might be the be...
The phosphatidylinositol 3' kinase (PI3K) pathway is commonly activated in breast cancer and aberrations such as PI3K mutations are common. Recent exciting clinical trial results in advanced estrogen receptor-positive (ER) breast cancer support mTOR activation is a major means of estrogen-independent tumor growth. Hence the means to identify a responsive breast cancer population that would most...
AIM The objective of this study was to compare the use of clomiphene citrate and letrozole in an IVF setting in which the objective was to produce only one or two embryos. Either clomiphene citrate or letrozole was used in conjunction with gonadotropins without the use of GnRH antagonists. METHODS Sixty-two patients received either clomiphene citrate or letrozole with low dose gonadotropins i...
BACKGROUND Letrozole, a non-steroidal aromatase inhibitor, prevents the body from producing its own estrogen. The objectives of the present study were to test the hypotheses that letrozole treatment, initiated prior to selection of the preovulatory dominant follicle, will induce the growth of more than one follicle to a pre-ovulatory size, and will delay ovulation. METHODS Post-pubertal beef ...
BACKGROUND To compare the clinical results and the cost-effectiveness of using the aromatase inhibitor, letrozole, in conjunction with FSH and FSH alone for controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) in patients undergoing intrauterine insemination (IUI) for a variety of indications. METHODS Four hundred and thirty-two consecutive patients who underwent 872 IUI cycles were included. The study popul...
