Catechol estrogens stimulate insulin secretion in pancreatic β-cells via activation of the transient receptor potential A1 (TRPA1) channel [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Estrogen hormones play an important role in controlling glucose homeostasis and pancreatic β-cell function. Despite the significance of estrogen hormones for regulation of glucose metabolism, little is known about the roles of endogenous estrogen ...

Predominant Role of Nuclear Versus Membrane Estrogen Receptor α in Arterial Protection: Implications for Estrogen Receptor α Modulation in Cardiovascular Prevention/Safety

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018
Background Although estrogen receptor α (ERα) acts primarily as a transcription factor, it can also elicit membrane‐initiated steroid signaling. Pharmacological tools and transgenic mouse models previously highlighted the key role of ERα membrane ...

Role for growth regulation by estrogen in breast cancer 1 (GREB1) in hormone-dependent cancers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Sex hormones play important roles in the onset and progression of several cancers, such as breast, ovarian, and prostate cancer. Although drugs targeting sex hormone function are useful in treating cancer, tumors often develop resistance.

Fibronectin rescues estrogen receptor α from lysosomal degradation in breast cancer cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Estrogen receptor α (ERα) is expressed in tissues as diverse as brains and mammary glands. In breast cancer, ERα is a key regulator of tumor progression.

Estrogen receptor β exhibited anti-tumor effects on osteosarcoma cells by regulating integrin, IAP, NF-kB/BCL-2 and PI3K/Akt signal pathway

open access: yesJournal of Bone Oncology, 2017
This study aimed to investigate the effects of Estrogen receptor β (ERβ) on osteosarcoma cells, and explore the regulatory mechanisms involved in this process. Osteosarcoma U2-OS cells consisted four groups, and treated by E2, E2 + LY294002 (ERβ agonists), E2 + ERβ siRNA, E2 + ERβ siRNA + LY294002, respectively.

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

open access: yes, 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 ...

Estrogenic activity, race/ethnicity, and Indigenous American ancestry among San Francisco Bay Area women. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Estrogens play a significant role in breast cancer development and are not only produced endogenously, but are also mimicked by estrogen-like compounds from environmental exposures.

Oviductal estrogen receptor α signaling prevents protease-mediated embryo death

open access: yeseLife, 2015
Development of uterine endometrial receptivity for implantation is orchestrated by cyclic steroid hormone-mediated signals. It is unknown if these signals are necessary for oviduct function in supporting fertilization and preimplantation development ...

Significance of G Protein-Coupled Estrogen Receptor in the Pathophysiology of Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Inflammatory Bowel Diseases and Colorectal Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2020
The regulatory role of estrogens and nuclear estrogen receptors, i. e., estrogen receptor α and β has been reported in gastrointestinal diseases. However, the contribution of G protein-coupled estrogen receptor, the membrane-bound estrogen receptor, is ...
