Testosterone, sex hormone-binding globulin, insulin-like growth factor-1 and endometrial cancer risk: observational and Mendelian randomization analyses by Mullee, A, Dimou, N, Allen, N, O'Mara, T, Gunter, MJ, Murphy, N

“…<p><strong>Background</strong></p> Dysregulation of endocrine pathways related to steroid and growth hormones may modify endometrial cancer risk; however, prospective data on testosterone, sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) and insulin-like growth factor (IGF)−1 are limited. To elucidate the role of these hormones in endometrial cancer risk we conducted complementary observational and Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses. …”

Antigen presentation dynamics shape the antibody response to variants like SARS-CoV-2 Omicron after multiple vaccinations with the original strain by Yang, Leerang, Van Beek, Matthew, Wang, Zijun, Muecksch, Frauke, Canis, Marie, Hatziioannou, Theodora, Bieniasz, Paul D, Nussenzweig, Michel C, Chakraborty, Arup K

“…After the first dose, limited antigen availability in germinal centers (GCs) results in a response dominated by B cells that target immunodominant epitopes that are mutated in an Omicron-like variant. After the second dose, these memory cells expand and differentiate into plasma cells that secrete antibodies that are thus ineffective for such variants. …”
