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 ...

Progesterone’s ability to maintain pregnancy in eutherian mammals highlighted this steroid as the “hormone of pregnancy”. It was the unique “pro-gestational” bioactivity of progesterone that enabled eventual purification of this ovarian steroid to ...

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

A nongenomic mechanism for progesterone-mediated immunosuppression: Inhibition of K+ channels, Ca2+ signaling, and gene expression in T lymphocytes [PDF]
The mechanism by which progesterone causes localized suppression of the immune response during pregnancy has remained elusive. Using human T lymphocytes and T cell lines, we show that progesterone, at concentrations found in the placenta, rapidly and ...

Progesterone Resistance in Endometriosis [PDF]
Endometriosis is characterised by the presence of endometrium-like tissue on the pelvis and other organs. Progesterone resistance due to suppressed progesterone receptor (PGR) expression and action is a general feature of endometriosis and is a cause of ...

The role of progesterone in the regulation of ciliary activity in the fallopian tube [PDF]
The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate the distribution and regulation of membrane progesterone receptors (mPRs) that may be involved in regulating ciliary activity in the fallopian tube.
