Receptors for progesterone

Gynecologic Oncology, 1974
Abstract Coordinated estrogen- and progesterone-induced changes regulate biological functions of the endometrium. The uterine deciduoma reaction is used as a model in defining the mechanism of the progesterone-induced endometrial transformations. Uterine progesterone concentrations were determined by radioimmunoassay during three critical periods ...

Progesterone and progesterone receptors in reptiles

General and Comparative Endocrinology, 2002
The role of progesterone (P) has been most extensively studied in the female reproductive tissues (ovary, reproductive tract, mammary gland) and in the brain, in which it is an important regulator and modulator in conjunction with estradiol (E). In nonmammalian vertebrate species, less work has been done on P metabolites involved in ovulation.

Revisiting the roles of progesterone and allopregnanolone in the nervous system: Resurgence of the progesterone receptors [PDF]

open access: yesProgress in Neurobiology, 2014
Progesterone is commonly considered as a female reproductive hormone and is well-known for its role in pregnancy. It is less well appreciated that progesterone and its metabolite allopregnanolone are also male hormones, as they are produced in both sexes

Progesterone receptor coactivators

Steroids, 2000
Progesterone action is mediated by intracellular progesterone receptors that regulate target gene transcription. Recently, numerous proteins termed coactivators have been identified that are recruited by the liganded progesterone receptor and enhance receptor-dependent transactivation.

Novel Mechanisms of Progesterone Antagonists and Progesterone Receptor

Journal of the Society for Gynecologic Investigation, 2000
The progesterone receptor (PR), as a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily of ligand-dependent transcription factors, activates gene transcription through binding to specific palindromic progesterone response elements (PRE) in the promoter region of progestin-responsive genes.
