Progesterone Regulation of the Progesterone Receptor in Rat Gonadotropes* [PDF]
Endocrinology, 2000 For rat pituitary cells, progesterone receptor (PR) protein localizes to gonadotropes and PR messenger RNA is induced by E2 and rapidly but transiently down-regulated by progesterone. Here we quantitatively establish the down-regulatory effect of progesterone on PR protein and evaluate possible mechanisms.

A novel therapeutic approach for treatment of catamenial epilepsy
Neurobiology of Disease, 2018 Many women with epilepsy experience perimenstrual seizure exacerbation, referred to as catamenial epilepsy. There is no effective treatment for this condition, proposed to result from withdrawal of neurosteroid-mediated effects of progesterone.

Progesterone receptors, their isoforms and progesterone regulated transcription [PDF]
Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology, 2012 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.

Acta Veterinaria, 2018 The estrus cycle of bitches is divided into four phases: proestrus, estrus, diestrus and anestrus, during which different morphological changes, and also cyclic changes of estrogen and progesterone receptors are present.

Progesterone signaling mechanisms in brain and behavior
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2012 Steroid hormone, progesterone, modulates neuroendocrine functions in the central nervous system resulting in alterations in physiology and behavior.

Scientific Reports, 2017 Recently, sex steroid membrane receptors garnered world-wide attention because they may be related to sex hormone-mediated unknown rapid non-genomic action that cannot be currently explained by their genomic action via nuclear receptors.

Reproductive functions of the progesterone receptor
Journal of the Society for Gynecologic Investigation, 2000 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

Overexpression of Androgen, Oestrogen and Progesterone Receptors in Skin Lesions of Becker’s Naevus
Acta Dermato-Venereologica, 2018 Becker’s naevus is androgen-dependent. The aim of this study was to investigate whether oestrogen and progesterone receptors are involved in this disorder.

Estrogen and Progesterone Receptors in Human Colorectal Tumour Cells (Study of 70 Cases)
The International Journal of Biological Markers, 1988 Estrogen and progesterone receptors were studied in 70 cases of human colorectal cancer by a cytochemical technique. 28.5% of the cases were estrogen-receptor positive and 42.8% progesterone-receptor positive.

Rodent Models of Non-classical Progesterone Action Regulating Ovulation
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2017 It is becoming clear that steroid hormones act not only by binding to nuclear receptors that associate with specific response elements in the nucleus but also by binding to receptors on the cell membrane. In this newly discovered manner, steroid hormones
