Estrogen receptor beta expression in prostate adenocarcinoma [PDF]
Background Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in men and the second leading cause of cancer death in men. Estrogen induction of cell proliferation is a crucial step in carcinogenesis of gynecologic target tissues, and there are many ...

Estrogen rescues heart failure through estrogen receptor Beta activation [PDF]
Background Recently, we showed that exogenous treatment with estrogen (E2) rescues pre-existing advanced heart failure (HF) in mice. Since most of the biological actions of E2 are mediated through the classical estrogen receptors alpha (ERα) and/or beta (

Estrogen receptors alpha and beta in bone [PDF]
Estrogens are important for bone metabolism via a variety of mechanisms in osteoblasts, osteocytes, osteoclasts, immune cells and other cells to maintain bone mineral density. Estrogens bind to estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) and ERβ, and the roles of each of these receptors are beginning to be elucidated through whole body and tissue-specific knockouts ...

Functional characteristics of a novel murine estrogen receptor-beta isoform, estrogen receptor-beta 2 [PDF]
We have isolated a highly expressed splice variant mRNA of murine estrogen receptor-beta (ERbeta), mERbeta2, containing an in-frame 54 nucleotide insertion between exons 5 and 6 of wild-type mERbeta1. The predicted ERbeta2 protein contains 18 amino acids inserted in the ligand binding domain of mERbeta1.

A–C Estrogens as Potent and Selective Estrogen Receptor-Beta Agonists (SERBAs) to Enhance Memory Consolidation under Low-Estrogen Conditions [PDF]
Estrogen receptor-beta (ERβ) is a drug target for memory consolidation in postmenopausal women. Herein is reported a series of potent and selective ERβ agonists (SERBAs) with in vivo efficacy that are A–C estrogens, lacking the B and D estrogen rings ...

Estrogen Receptor-β, Estrogen Receptor-α, and Progesterone Resistance in Endometriosis [PDF]
Loss of progesterone signaling in the endometrium may be a causal factor in the development of endometriosis, and progesterone resistance is commonly observed in women with this disease. In endometriotic stromal cells, the levels of progesterone receptor (PR), particularly the PR-B isoform, are significantly decreased, leading to a loss of paracrine ...

β-arrestin regulates estradiol membrane-initiated signaling in hypothalamic neurons. [PDF]
Estradiol (E2) action in the nervous system is the result of both direct nuclear and membrane-initiated signaling (EMS). E2 regulates membrane estrogen receptor-α (ERα) levels through opposing mechanisms of EMS-mediated trafficking and internalization ...

Estrogen Signaling via Estrogen Receptor β [PDF]
Estrogens act by binding to and activating two estrogen receptors (ERs), ERα and ERβ. Transcriptional regulation by ERs is controlled by a complex array of factors such as ER-ligand binding, the DNA sequence bound by ERs, ER-interacting cofactors, and chromatin context.
