Origin and diversification of steroids: Co-evolution of enzymes and nuclear receptors [PDF]
, 2010 Recent sequencing of amphioxus and sea urchin genomes has provided important data for understanding the origins of enzymes that synthesize adrenal and sex steroids and the receptors that mediate physiological response to these vertebrate steroids ...

The localization of androgen receptors in human bone. [PDF]
, 1997 Androgens have important effects on the human skeleton, and deficiency has been associated with bone loss in both males and females. The skeletal actions of androgens may be mediated directly via the androgen receptor (AR) or indirectly via the estrogen ...

A study of androgen and estrogen receptors α, β in skin tags
Indian Journal of Dermatology, 2010 Background: In women, the age of 50 is suggested to be the turning point of life at which the development of skin tags comes to a stop. A major event that occurs around this period of life is menopause/andropause.

Hormone receptors of the baboon cardiovascular system. Biochemical characterization of aortic cytoplasmic androgen receptors. [PDF]
, 1981 Cytoplasmic androgen receptors were identified in the aorta of the baboon (Papio sp.). Using the synthetic androgen R1881 (17 beta-hydroxy-17 alpha-methyl-estra-4,9,11-trien-3-one) as probe, androgen receptors were demonstrated only when the incubation ...

Immunocytochemical Localization of Androgen Receptors in Human Skin Using Monoclonal Antibodies Against the Androgen Receptors [PDF]
, 1993 Androgen receptors were localized in cryostat sections of human skin using monoclonal antibodies to the human androgen receptor. Bound antibodies were detected using biotinylated rabbit anti-rat IgG, peroxidase-conjugated streptavidin, and ...

Sex Hormones and Their Receptors Regulate Liver Energy Homeostasis
International Journal of Endocrinology, 2015 The liver is one of the most essential organs involved in the regulation of energy homeostasis. Hepatic steatosis, a major manifestation of metabolic syndrome, is associated with imbalance between lipid formation and breakdown, glucose production and ...

A signature motif mediating selective interactions of BCL11A with the NR2E/F subfamily of orphan nuclear receptors [PDF]
, 2013 Despite their physiological importance, selective interactions between Nuclear Receptors (NRs) and their cofactors are poorly understood. Here we describe a novel signature motif (F/YSXXLXXL/Y) in the developmental regulator BCL11A that facilitates its ...

Expression of estrogen and androgen receptors in children with hypospadias: Preliminary report [PDF]
, 2007 This investigation was conducted to evaluate the presence of estrogen and androgen receptors in penile tissues of patients with hypospadias. The biopsy specimens from prepuce, glans, and urethral plate were sampled during the hypospadias surgery in five ...

Androgen and estrogen receptors in perinatal ferret brain [PDF]
, 1985 Using DNA-cellulose affinity chromatography and either 3H-labeled dihydrotestosterone, testosterone, or estradiol, we qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed the androgen- and estrogen-binding activities present in four regions of male and female ...
