Approximate calculation of the binding energy between 17$β$-estradiol and human estrogen receptor alpha [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Estrogen receptors (ERs) are a group of proteins activated by 17$\beta$-estradiol. The endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) mimic estrogen action by bind directly to the ligand binding domain of ER. From this perspective, ER represent a good model for identifying and assessing the health risk of potential EDCs.

Modeling of mouse experiments suggests that optimal anti-hormonal treatment for breast cancer is diet-dependent [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Estrogen receptor positive breast cancer is frequently treated with anti-hormonal treatment such as aromatase inhibitors (AI). Interestingly, a high body mass index has been shown to have a negative impact on AI efficacy, most likely due to disturbances in steroid metabolism and adipokine production.

The Influence of Estrogens on the Biological and Therapeutic Actions of Growth Hormone in the Liver

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2012
GH is main regulator of body growth and composition, somatic development, intermediate metabolism and gender-dependent dimorphism in mammals. The liver is a direct target of estrogens because it expresses estrogen receptors which are connected with ...

Murine Models and Human Cell Line Models to Study Altered Dynamics of Ovarian Follicles in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
The manuscript examines preclinical murine and human models to study polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), delving into the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying altered ovarian follicular dynamics. It explores the cellular interactions involved in normal and PCOS ovaries and outlines the current and novel strategies in the search for preclinical ...

Protection of HT22 neuronal cells against chemically-induced ferroptosis by catechol estrogens: protein disulfide isomerase as a mechanistic target

open access: yesScientific Reports
Ferroptosis is a form of regulated cell death, characterized by excessive iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. Biochemically, ferroptosis can be selectively induced by erastin through glutathione depletion or through inhibition of glutathione peroxidase 4 ...

Potassium, magnesium and pyridoxine in the context of the biological effects of estrogens [PDF]

open access: yesГинекология, 2017
Potassium and magnesium ions are essential for realizing the biological effects of estrogens. Magnesium ions promote the translocation of the estrogen receptors into the nucleus of the cell and regulate the potassium channels that are involved in the ...
