Estrogen Receptors and Endothelium [PDF]

open access: yesArteriosclerosis, 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 ...

Single-cell states in the estrogen response of breast cancer cell lines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Estrogen responsive breast cancer cell lines have been extensively studied to characterize transcriptional patterns in hormone-responsive tumors. Nevertheless, due to current technological limitations, genome-wide studies have typically been limited to ...

Estrogen and Progesterone Receptors in Human Colorectal Tumour Cells (Study of 70 Cases)

open access: yesThe International Journal of Biological Markers, 1988
Estrogen and progesterone receptors were studied in 70 cases of human colorectal cancer by a cytochemical technique. 28.5% of the cases were estrogen-receptor positive and 42.8% progesterone-receptor positive.

Estrogen and Glycemic Homeostasis: The Fundamental Role of Nuclear Estrogen Receptors ESR1/ESR2 in Glucose Transporter GLUT4 Regulation

open access: yes, 2021
Impaired circulating estrogen levels have been related to impaired glycemic homeostasis and diabetes mellitus (DM), both in females and males. However, for the last twenty years, the relationship between estrogen, glycemic homeostasis and the mechanisms ...

Local estrogen formation and its regulation in endometriosis

open access: yesReproductive Medicine and Biology, 2019
Background It has been well established that endometriosis is an estrogen‐dependent disease. Although the exact pathogenesis of the disease is still unclear, it is known to be characterized by estrogen‐dependent growth and maintenance of the ectopic ...

Insights from the Structure of Estrogen Receptor into the Evolution of Estrogens: Implications for Endocrine Disruption

open access: yes, 2011
In the last decade, there has been important progress in understanding the origins and evolution of receptors for adrenal steroids (aldosterone, cortisol) and sex steroids (estradiol, progesterone, testosterone) due to the sequencing of genomes from ...

Estrogen stimulates dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase activity and the metabolism of asymmetric dimethylarginine. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Background— Experimental evidence suggests that estrogens stimulate the production of nitric oxide (NO) by vascular endothelial cells. This effect has been attributed to increased expression and enzymatic activity of both the constitutive and inducible ...
