Epigenetics and the Estrogen Receptor
Abstract: The position effect variegation in Drosophila and Schizosaccharomyces pombe, and higher‐order chromatin structure regulation in yeast, is orchestrated by modifier genes of the Su(var) group, (e.g., histone deacetylases ([HDACs]), protein phosphatases) and enhancer E(Var) group (e.g., ATP [adenosine 5′‐triphosphate]‐dependent nucleosome ...

Estrogen Receptors in the Male [PDF]
Estrogens in the male are secreted by the testes and derived extragonadally from the aromatization of certain androgens. In some brain regions critical for the control of gonadotropin secretion and behavior, androgens may be aromatized to estrogens within the cells that are regulated. Estrogen may have other physiological roles on the testes to control

Thyroid hormone receptors and ligand, tissue distribution and sexual behavior [PDF]
The thyroid hormones (THs) triiodothyronine (T3) and tetraiodothyronine, or thyroxine (T4), not only dramatically impact on development and differentiation, but also on the sexual and reproductive function.

Expression of female sex hormone receptors and its relation to clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma [PDF]
Background Adenocarcinoma (ADC) of the lung exhibits different clinicopathological characteristics in men and women. Recent studies have suggested that these differences originate from the expression of female sex hormone receptors in tumor cells.

Local estrogen formation and its regulation in endometriosis
Background It has been well established that endometriosis is an estrogen‐dependent disease. Although the exact pathogenesis of the disease is still unclear, it is known to be characterized by estrogen‐dependent growth and maintenance of the ectopic ...

The Serine/Threonine Protein Kinase (Akt)/ Protein Kinase B (PkB) Signaling Pathway in Breast Cancer [PDF]
According to statistical data published in 2019, breast cancer is among the leading causes of death in women worldwide. The serine/threonine kinase (AKT) or protein kinase B (PkB) signaling pathway is activated by phosphorylation processes, which further

The binding of estrogen and estrogen antagonists to the estrogen receptor
The model of the estrogen receptor as a dimer of identical, interacting subunits and data obtained by Sasson and Notides (1988, Mol. Endocrinol. 2, 307-312) were used to find the standard free energy changes that describe the binding of estradiol and 4-hydroxytamoxifen to the estrogen receptor.
