Comparison of Short-Term Estrogenicity Tests for Identification of Hormone-Disrupting Chemicals [PDF]

, 1999
The aim of this study was to compare results obtained by eight different short-term assays of estrogenlike actions of chemicals conducted in 10 different laboratories in five countries. Twenty chemicals were selected to represent direct-acting estrogens,

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

, 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 ...

Silibinin protects GLUTag cells from PA-induced injury via suppressing endoplasmic reticulum stress

CyTA - Journal of Food, 2023
Silibinin is a natural flavonoid with anti-diabetic activity. Glucagon-like peptide−1 (GLP−1), an intestinal hormone mainly secreted from L cells, which regulates insulin production and sensitivity, appears to be a potential therapeutic strategy for T2DM.

Estrogen stimulates adenosine receptor expression subtypes in human breast cancer MCF-7 cell line

Research in Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2018
Estrogen is a steroid hormone that plays a key role in the development and regulation of reproductive system. It has been shown that estrogen is related to breast cancer development through binding to its receptors.

Estrogen modulation of pain perception with a novel 17β-estradiol pretreatment regime in ovariectomized rats

Biology of Sex Differences, 2020
Estrogen plays substantial roles in pain modulation; however, studies concerning sex hormones and nociception often yield confusing results. The discrepancy could be a result of lack of consensus to regard estrogen as a variable when working with animal ...

The steroid hormone estriol (E3) regulates epigenetic programming of fetal mouse brain and reproductive tract

BMC Biology, 2022
Background Estriol (E3) is a steroid hormone formed only during pregnancy in primates including humans. Although E3 is synthesized at large amounts through a complex pathway involving the fetus and placenta, it is not required for the maintenance of ...

Neuroprotection and Estrogen Receptors [PDF]

Neuroendocrinology, 2012
This review is intended to assess the state of current knowledge on the role of estrogen receptors (ERs) in the neuroprotective effects of estrogens in models for acute neuronal injury and death. We evaluate the overall evidence that estrogens are neuroprotective in acute injury and critically assess the role of ERα, ERβ, GPR 30, and nonreceptor ...
