Expression of estrogen and progesterone receptors in astrocytomas: a literature review

Clinics
Gliomas are the most common type of primary central nervous system neoplasm. Astrocytomas are the most prevalent type of glioma and these tumors may be influenced by sex steroid hormones.

Estrogen Actions in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

Cells, 2020
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) lacks estrogen receptor (ER) α, but the expression of estrogen receptors ERβ and G protein-coupled estrogen receptor 1 (GPER-1) is able to trigger estrogen-responsivity in TNBC.

Binding of Androgen- and Estrogen-Like Flavonoids to Their Cognate (Non)Nuclear Receptors: A Comparison by Computational Prediction

Molecules, 2021
Flavonoids are plant bioactives that are recognized as hormone-like polyphenols because of their similarity to the endogenous sex steroids 17β-estradiol and testosterone, and to their estrogen- and androgen-like activity. Most efforts to verify flavonoid

Estrogen Receptors and Endothelium [PDF]

Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2010
Estrogens, and in particular 17β-estradiol (E2), play a pivotal role in sexual development and reproduction and are also implicated in a large number of physiological processes, including the cardiovascular system. Both acetylcholine-induced and flow-dependent vasodilation are preserved or potentiated by estrogen treatment in both animal models and ...

Epigenetics and the Estrogen Receptor

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2006
Abstract:  The position effect variegation in Drosophila and Schizosaccharomyces pombe, and higher‐order chromatin structure regulation in yeast, is orchestrated by modifier genes of the Su(var) group, (e.g., histone deacetylases ([HDACs]), protein phosphatases) and enhancer E(Var) group (e.g., ATP [adenosine 5′‐triphosphate]‐dependent nucleosome ...

Mechanism of Estrogen and Estrogen Receptors in Pathologic Pain [PDF]

Zhongguo quanke yixue
Pathologic pain is a serious chronic disease, including inflammatory pain, neuropathic pain and cancer pain. Previous studies have proved a close correlation of estrogen and its receptors with pathologic pain, which plays an important role in its ...

Estrogen Receptors in the Male [PDF]

Archives of Andrology, 1981
Estrogens in the male are secreted by the testes and derived extragonadally from the aromatization of certain androgens. In some brain regions critical for the control of gonadotropin secretion and behavior, androgens may be aromatized to estrogens within the cells that are regulated. Estrogen may have other physiological roles on the testes to control

Effects of estrogen receptor and estrogen on the chromatin structure in estrogen receptor stable transfectants [PDF]

Experimental & Molecular Medicine, 2002
The estrogen receptor (ER), a member of the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily recruits coactivators that modify local chromatin structure. Here we investigated the effect of the estrogen receptor and estrogen on the global chromatin structure and the local chromatin structure of the progesterone receptor gene during the process of transcriptional ...

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.

Advances of Targeted Therapy Based on Estrogen Receptor Signaling Pathway 
in Lung Cancer

Chinese Journal of Lung Cancer, 2011
Increasing evidence indicates that estrogen promotes tumor growth in both estrogen target organs and non-target organs. Estrogen regulates cell proliferation and differentiation via two different receptors, estrogen receptors α and β (ERα and ERβ).
