Breast cancer remains a major cause of cancer death in women, frequently developing endocrine therapy resistance. This study demonstrates that upregulated p21‐activated kinase 1 (PAK1) activity drives resistance to tamoxifen and long‐term estrogen deprivation in ER+ breast cancer models.

Interaction of Phytoestrogens with Estrogen Receptors .ALPHA. and .BETA..
The human estrogen receptor (hER) exists as two subtypes, hER alpha and hER beta, that differ in the C-terminal ligand-binding domain and in the N-terminal transactivation domain. In this study, we investigated the estrogenic activities of soy isoflavones after digestion with enteric bacteria in competition binding assays with hER alpha or hER beta ...

Expression profile and prognostic role of sex hormone receptors in gastric cancer
Background Increasing interest has been devoted to the expression and possible role of sex hormone receptors in gastric cancer, but most of these findings are controversial. In the present study, the expression profile of sex hormone receptors in gastric

ERα splice variant ERα∆7 lacks the C‐terminus, and its expression may change phenotypes of breast cancers. Our results showed that ERα∆7 is found in the luminal A subtype, and elevated ERα∆7 levels are linked to improved cell survival with lower proliferation and migration.

Mitochondrial localization of estrogen receptor β [PDF]
Estrogen receptors (ERs) are believed to be ligand-activated transcription factors belonging to the nuclear receptor superfamily, which on ligand binding translocate into the nucleus and activate gene transcription. To date, two ERs have been identified: ERα and ERβ.

Background: It is well known that estrogens regulate cell cycle progression, but the specific contributions and mechanisms of action of the estrogen receptor beta (ERβ) remain elusive.

Objective Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) is a cornerstone therapy in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), but the weight‐based dosing does not account for clinical factors that can introduce individual variability in drug metabolism and clearance. We leveraged longitudinal data from a prospective SLE cohort to identify clinical factors that predict ...

Upon menopause, women have an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, in part due to the decrease in estrogen production that occurs. While estrogen's cardioprotective effects have been known for many years, the exact mechanism of this protection is still under investigation.

Taxanes are natural products which bind beta-tubulin, stabilize microtubules and have a broad spectrum of anticancer activity. Here authors employ a computational binding site similarity screen and cell-based assays to reveal a SERM cross-reactivity ...

Beneficial effects of estrogens have been reported in Parkinson's disease (PD) for many years. We previously reported their neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory potentials in the enteric nervous system of the intestine, a region possibly affected during
