A–C Estrogens as Potent and Selective Estrogen Receptor-Beta Agonists (SERBAs) to Enhance Memory Consolidation under Low-Estrogen Conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
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 signaling in the immune system.

open access: yesEndocrine reviews, 2022
The immune system functions in a sexually dimorphic manner with females exhibiting more robust immune responses than males. However, how female sex hormones affect immune function in normal homeostasis and in autoimmunity is poorly understood.

3D model of amphioxus steroid receptor complexed with estradiol [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The origins of signaling by vertebrate steroids are not fully understood. An important advance was the report that an estrogen-binding steroid receptor [SR] is present in amphioxus, a basal chordate with a similar body plan as vertebrates.

Estrogens, Estrogen Receptors Effects on Cardiac and Skeletal Muscle Mitochondria

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2019
Mitochondria are unique organelles present in almost all cell types. They are involved not only in the supply of energy to the host cell, but also in multiple biochemical and biological processes like calcium homeostasis, production, and regulation of ...

The protective role of estrogen and estrogen receptors in cardiovascular disease and the controversial use of estrogen therapy

open access: yesBiology of Sex Differences, 2017
Epidemiologic studies have previously suggested that premenopausal females have reduced incidence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) when compared to age-matched males, and the incidence and severity of CVD increases postmenopause.

Epigenetics and the Estrogen Receptor

open access: yesAnnals 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 ...

Estrogen Receptors in the Male [PDF]

open access: yesArchives 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

Estrogen Receptors: New Directions in the New Millennium.

open access: yesEndocrine reviews, 2018
Nineteen years have passed since our previous review in this journal in 1999 regarding estrogen receptors. At that time, we described the current assessments of the physiological activities of estrogen and estrogen receptors.

Thyroid hormone receptors and ligand, tissue distribution and sexual behavior [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The thyroid hormones (THs) triiodothyronine (T3) and tetraiodothyronine, or thyroxine (T4), not only dramatically impact on development and differentiation, but also on the sexual and reproductive function.
