Tissue Specific Effects of Loss of Estrogen During Menopause and Aging

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2012
The roles of estrogens have been best studied in the breast, breast cancers and in the female reproductive tract. However, estrogens have important functions in almost every tissue in the body. Recent clinical trials such as the Women’s Health Initiative

Immunuhistochemical features of the ovaries’ structure in case of fetuses with a gestational term of 21-28 weeks from mother, whose pregnancy was complicated by chronic infections of lower genital tracts

Journal of Education, Health and Sport, 2021
The following article presents results of the complex research on postulation of immunohistochemical features of the ovaries’ structure in case of fetuses with a gestational term of 21-28 weeks from mothers with HILGT comparing to ones in case of fetuses

Estrogen stimulates dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase activity and the metabolism of asymmetric dimethylarginine. [PDF]

, 2003
Background— Experimental evidence suggests that estrogens stimulate the production of nitric oxide (NO) by vascular endothelial cells. This effect has been attributed to increased expression and enzymatic activity of both the constitutive and inducible ...

Sex Differences in Memory: Do Female Reproductive Factors Explain the Differences?

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
BackgroundThe sex differences in memory impairment were inconclusive, and the effect of female reproductive factors (age at menarche, age at menopause, and reproductive period) on the differences was not clear.

Molecular mechanism of estrogen–estrogen receptor signaling [PDF]

Reproductive Medicine and Biology, 2016
Abstract17β‐Estradiol (E2), as the main circulating estrogen hormone, regulates many tissue and organ functions in physiology. The effects of E2 on cells are mediated by the transcription factors and estrogen receptor (ER)α and ERβ that are encoded by distinct genes.

Association between sex steroid hormones and subsequent hyperglycemia during pregnancy

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
ObjectiveSex steroid hormones may play a role in insulin resistance and glucose dysregulation. However, evidence regarding associations between early-pregnancy sex steroid hormones and hyperglycemia during pregnancy is limited.

Estrogen receptor as the predictive factor for response to chemotherapy in breast cancer [PDF]

Archive of Oncology, 2006
It has generally been accepted that breast cancer (BC) cells are equally responsive to chemotherapy (CHT) irrespective of ER status. However, subset analyses of disease outcome in recently reported trials on neoadjuvant and adjuvant CHT brought new ...

Estrogenic Activities in Rodent Estrogen-Free Diets [PDF]

Endocrinology, 2005
Diets lacking soy and alpha-alpha derivatives that are considered to be estrogen-free by standard bioassays (uterotrophic assay and vaginal opening) have been revealed to contain considerable amounts of compounds able to transcriptionally activate the estrogen receptors (ERs) and stimulate luciferase expression in several organs of the ERE-Luc reporter

Dynamic changes in gene expression in vivo predict prognosis of tamoxifen-treated patients with breast cancer [PDF]

, 2010
Tamoxifen is the most widely prescribed anti-estrogen treatment for patients with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer. However, there is still a need for biomarkers that reliably predict endocrine sensitivity in breast cancers and these may ...
