Estrogen, Estrogen Receptor and Lung Cancer [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2017 Estrogen has been postulated as a contributor for lung cancer development and progression. We reviewed the current knowledge about the expression and prognostic implications of the estrogen receptors (ER) in lung cancer, the effect and signaling pathway of estrogen on lung cancer, the hormone replacement therapy and lung cancer risk and survival, the ...

Molecular mechanism of estrogen–estrogen receptor signaling [PDF]
Reproductive Medicine and Biology, 2016 Abstract17β‐Estradiol (E2), as the main circulating estrogen hormone, regulates many tissue and organ functions in physiology. The effects of E2 on cells are mediated by the transcription factors and estrogen receptor (ER)α and ERβ that are encoded by distinct genes.
