Progesterone receptors, their isoforms and progesterone regulated transcription [PDF]
This review discusses mechanisms by which progesterone receptors (PR) regulate transcription. We examine available data in different species and tissues regarding: (1) regulation of PR levels; and (2) expression profiling of progestin-regulated genes by total PRs, or their PRA and PRB isoforms.

Progestin receptor-mediated reduction of anxiety-like behavior in male rats. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: It is well known progesterone can have anxiolytic-like effects in animals in a number of different behavioral testing paradigms. Although progesterone is known to influence physiology and behavior by binding to classical intracellular ...

Reproductive functions of the progesterone receptor
The steroid hormone progesterone plays a central role in the reproductive events associated with pregnancy establishment and maintenance. Physiological effects of progesterone are mediated by interaction of the hormone with specific intracellular progesterone receptors (PRs) that are expressed as two protein isoforms, PR-A and PR-B. Both proteins arise

Progesterone Regulation of the Progesterone Receptor in Rat Gonadotropes* [PDF]
For rat pituitary cells, progesterone receptor (PR) protein localizes to gonadotropes and PR messenger RNA is induced by E2 and rapidly but transiently down-regulated by progesterone. Here we quantitatively establish the down-regulatory effect of progesterone on PR protein and evaluate possible mechanisms.
