Effects of the selective progesterone receptor modulator asoprisnil on uterine artery blood flow, ovarian activity, and clinical symptoms in patients with uterine leiomyomata scheduled for hysterectomy [PDF]

, 2008
Introduction: Asoprisnil, a novel orally active selective progesterone receptor modulator, is being studied for the management of symptomatic uterine leiomyomata. The exact mechanism of action is not yet discerned.

Identification of a novel corticotropin-releasing hormone type 1 beta-Like receptor variant lacking exon 13 in human pregnant myometrium regulated by estradiol-17 beta and progesterone [PDF]

, 2010
Two types of CRH receptors mediate the diverse biological functions of CRH and CRH-related peptides. The type 1 CRH-R (CRH-R1) is extensively targeted by pre-mRNA splicing mechanisms that give rise to multiple mRNA splice variants.

Initiating luteal phase support with sc progesterone based on low serum progesterone on the transfer day in true natural cycle frozen embryo transfers

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
IntroductionConcerning contemporary in-vitro fertilisation (IVF) practice, the use of frozen embryo transfer (FET) cycles has become more common than fresh transfers.

Vaginal progesterone prophylaxis for preterm birth (the OPPTIMUM study): a multicentre, randomised, double-blind trial

The Lancet, 2016
Summary Background Progesterone administration has been shown to reduce the risk of preterm birth and neonatal morbidity in women at high risk, but there is uncertainty about longer term effects on the child.

The androgen and progesterone receptors regulate distinct gene networks and cellular functions in decidualizing endometrium [PDF]

, 2008
Progesterone is indispensable for differentiation of human endometrial stromal cells (HESCs) into decidual cells, a process that critically controls embryo implantation.

Clostridium innocuum, an opportunistic gut pathogen, inactivates host gut progesterone and arrests ovarian follicular development

Gut Microbes
\Levels of progesterone, an endogenous female hormone, increase after ovulation; progesterone is crucial in the luteal phase to maintain successful pregnancy and prevent early miscarriage.

Membrane progesterone receptor beta (mPRβ/Paqr8) promotes progesterone-dependent neurite outgrowth in PC12 neuronal cells via non-G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling

Scientific Reports, 2017
Recently, sex steroid membrane receptors garnered world-wide attention because they may be related to sex hormone-mediated unknown rapid non-genomic action that cannot be currently explained by their genomic action via nuclear receptors.
