Steroid Receptors and Vertebrate Evolution [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Considering that life on earth evolved about 3.7 billion years ago, vertebrates are young, appearing in the fossil record during the Cambrian explosion about 542 to 515 million years ago. Results from sequence analyses of genomes from bacteria, yeast, plants, invertebrates and vertebrates indicate that receptors for adrenal steroids (aldosterone ...

Emergence of Constitutively Active Estrogen Receptor-α Mutations in Pretreated Advanced Estrogen Receptor–Positive Breast Cancer

open access: yesClinical Cancer Research, 2014
Purpose: We undertook this study to determine the prevalence of estrogen receptor (ER) α (ESR1) mutations throughout the natural history of hormone-dependent breast cancer and to delineate the functional roles of the most commonly detected alterations ...

Comparative distribution of estrogen receptor‐α and ‐β mRNA in the rat central nervous system

open access: yesThe Journal of comparative neurology, 1997
Estrogen plays a profound role in regulating the structure and function of many neuronal systems in the adult rat brain. The actions of estrogen were thought to be mediated by a single nuclear estrogen receptor (ER) until the recent cloning of a novel ER

Double robust estimation of partially adaptive treatment strategies [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Precision medicine aims to tailor treatment decisions according to patients' characteristics. G-estimation and dynamic weighted ordinary least squares (dWOLS) are double robust statistical methods that can be used to identify optimal adaptive treatment strategies.

Generation and reproductive phenotypes of mice lacking estrogen receptor beta.

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1998
Estrogens influence the differentiation and maintenance of reproductive tissues and affect lipid metabolism and bone remodeling. Two estrogen receptors (ERs) have been identified to date, ERalpha and ERbeta.

Approximate calculation of the binding energy between 17$β$-estradiol and human estrogen receptor alpha [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Estrogen receptors (ERs) are a group of proteins activated by 17$\beta$-estradiol. The endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) mimic estrogen action by bind directly to the ligand binding domain of ER. From this perspective, ER represent a good model for identifying and assessing the health risk of potential EDCs.

LIMO: Latent Inceptionism for Targeted Molecule Generation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Generation of drug-like molecules with high binding affinity to target proteins remains a difficult and resource-intensive task in drug discovery. Existing approaches primarily employ reinforcement learning, Markov sampling, or deep generative models guided by Gaussian processes, which can be prohibitively slow when generating molecules with high ...

Exploring The Contribution of Innate Immune Cells to Breast Cancer Immunotherapy [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Breast cancer is the leading type of cancer in women. About 10-15% of breast cancers are triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), a subtype with the worst prognosis. Due to the lack of estrogen, progesterone and HER2 receptor expression, chemotherapies have been the standard of care for decades.

Mechanisms associated with resistance to tamoxifen in estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer (review).

open access: yesOncology Report, 2014
Anti-estrogens such as tamoxifen are widely used in the clinic to treat estrogen receptor-positive breast tumors. Patients with estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer initially respond to treatment with anti-hormonal agents such as tamoxifen, but ...

Estrogen-induced activation of Erk-1 and Erk-2 requires the G protein-coupled receptor homolog, GPR30, and occurs via trans-activation of the epidermal growth factor receptor through release of HB-EGF.

open access: yesMolecular Endocrinology, 2000
Estrogen rapidly activates the mitogen-activated protein kinases, Erk-1 and Erk-2, via an as yet unknown mechanism. Here, evidence is provided that estrogen-induced Erk-1/-2 activation occurs independently of known estrogen receptors, but requires the ...
