Glucocorticoids rapidly inhibit oxytocin-stimulated adrenocorticotropin release from rat anterior pituitary cells, without modifying intracellular calcium transients [PDF]

, 1993
Glucocorticoid hormones suppress the secretion of ACTH evoked by secretagogues such as CRF and arginine vasopressin. In this study, we investigated the effects of glucocorticoids on ACTH release induced by oxytocin (OT) and on intracellular free calcium ...

Progestins and cancer

Gynecological Endocrinology, 1999
The role of progestins in breast tissue is less well defined than in the endometrium. Although in vitro studies have shown that progestins induce a similar decrease in both estrogen and progesterone receptors and an increase in 17beta-estradiol dehydrogenase in the breast as in the endometrium, epidemiologic studies have suggested that progestins ...
