  • Other Data Relevant to an Evaluation of Carcinogenicity and Its Mechanisms
    COMBINED ESTROGEN−PROGESTOGEN CONTRACEPTIVES 143 4. Other Data Relevant to an Evaluation of Carcinogenicity and its Mechanisms 4.1 Absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion in humans The metabolism and disposition of various formulations of oral contraceptives used in humans differ. After entering the small intestine, estrogenic and progestogenic compounds in combined oral contraceptives undergo metabolism by bacterial enzymes and enzymes in the intestinal mucosa to varying extents. The mixture of metabolized and unmetabolized compounds then undergoes intestinal absorption, and thus enters the portal vein blood, which perfuses the liver. In the liver, the compounds can be metabolized extensively, which leads to variations in the amount of active drug. A fraction of the absorbed dose of ethinyl- estradiol and some progestogens is also excreted in the bile during its first transit through the liver. Although some of these compounds are partially reabsorbed via the enterohepatic circulation, a fraction may also be excreted in this ‘first pass’, which reduces overall bio- availability. Since steroids penetrate normal skin easily, various systems have also been developed that deliver estrogens and progestogens parenterally, e.g. transdermal patches, nasal sprays, subcutaneous implants, vaginal rings and intrauterine devices (Fanchin et al., 1997; Dezarnaulds & Fraser, 2002; Meirik et al., 2003; Sarkar, 2003; Wildemeersch et al., 2003; Sturdee et al., 2004). These different modes of administration have been described previously (IARC, 1999). In general, all parenteral routes avoid loss of the drug by hepatic first-pass metabolism and minimally affect hepatic protein metabolism. The absorption rates of orally administered estrogens and progestogens are usually rapid; peak serum values are observed between 0.5 and 4 h after intake.

  • The Realization of New Medical Alternatives to Surgery for Endometriosis
    Paradigm Shift: The Realization of New Medical Alternatives to Surgery for Endometriosis Edward M. Lichten, MD* ©2016, Edward M. Lichten, MD Journal Compilation ©2016, AARM DOI 10.14200/jrm.2016.5.0099 ABSTRACT Endometriosis is one of the most destructive benign diseases of women. It is established as developing and being present in upward of 70% of adolescents who do not experience relief of menstrual pain with use of oral contraceptives and anti- inflammatory drugs. It occurs in 8%–10% of women in the United States and is most prevalent in developed countries. Symptoms of endometriosis include disabling pain, hemorrhagic uterine bleeding, and infertility. Women with disease can expect a 12% hysterectomy rate. While present medical therapy may offer relief of many symptoms, there have been no major new directions in pharmacologic therapy since leuprolide acetate was made available in 1977. Danazol remains the only alternative to GnRH agonists with proven efficacy and reasonable side effects, according to Cochrane Reviews, yet, it is underused, and GnRH agonists are favored even when Danazol in combination seems more effective. A previously published case report on use of the combination of nandrolone and stanozolol to treat a young woman scheduled for hemicolectomy is discussed as an alternative to surgery along with the limits of standard therapy. This review will focus on recent research and theories seeking to establish causation for disease and offer treatment recommendations. Keywords: Endometriosis; Environmental toxins; Xenoestrogens;

  • Metformin Enhances Nomegestrol Acetate Suppressing Growth of Endometrial Cancer Cells and May Correlate to Downregulating Mtor Activity in Vitro and in Vivo

Inhibitory effects of four progestins, including nomegestrol acetate (NOMAC), medroxyprogesterone acetate, levonorgestrel, and cyproterone acetate, were evaluated in RL95-2, HEC-1A, and KLE cells using cell counting kit-8 assay. Flow cytometry was performed to detect cell cycle and apoptosis. The activity of Akt (protein kinase B), mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) and its downstream substrates 4EBP1 (4E-binding protein 1) and eIF4G (Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4G) were assayed by Western blotting. Nude mice were used to assess antitumor effects in vivo. NOMAC inhibited the growth of RL95-2 and HEC-1A cells, accompanied by arresting the cell cycle at G0/G1 phase, inducing apoptosis, and markedly down-regulating the level of phosphorylated mTOR/4EBP1/eIF4G in both cell lines (p < 0.05).
