Membrane testosterone binding sites in prostate carcinoma as a potential new marker and therapeutic target: Study in paraffin tissue sections

BMC Cancer, 2005
Background Steroid action is mediated, in addition to classical intracellular receptors, by recently identified membrane sites, that generate rapid non-genomic effects.

The effect of different types of hepatic injury on the estrogen and androgen receptor activity of liver [PDF]

, 1989
Mammalian liver contains receptors for both estrogens and androgens. Hepatic regeneration after partial hepatectomy in male rats is associated with a loss of certain male-specific hepatic characteristics.

Effect of spironolactone and potassium canrenoate on cytosolic and nuclear androgen and estrogen receptors of rat liver [PDF]

, 1987
Spironolactone and potassium canrenoate are diuretics that are used widely for management of cirrhotic ascites. The administration of spironolactone frequently leads to feminization, which has been noted less frequently with the use of potassium ...

Effect of antiandrogen flutamide on measures of hepatic regeneration in rats [PDF]

, 1989
Male rat liver undergoes a process of demasculinization during hepatic regeneration following partial hepatectomy. The possibility that antiandrogens might potentiate this demasculinization process and in so doing augment the hepatic regenerative ...

Overexpression of Androgen, Oestrogen and Progesterone Receptors in Skin Lesions of Becker’s Naevus

Acta Dermato-Venereologica, 2018
Becker’s naevus is androgen-dependent. The aim of this study was to investigate whether oestrogen and progesterone receptors are involved in this disorder.

A computational insight into endocrine disruption by polychlorinated biphenyls via non-covalent interactions with human nuclear receptors

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021
Production of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) was banned a long time ago because of their harmful health effects but humans continue to be exposed to residual PCBs in the environment.

Effect of cyclosporine on hepatic cytosolic estrogen and androgen receptor levels before and after partial hepatectomy [PDF]

, 1990
Estrogen and androgen receptors within the liver have been reported to modulate the hepatic regenerative response to partial hepatectomy. Moreover, cyclosporine has several untoward effects that might occur as a consequence of alterations in sex hormone ...
