The MPA mouse breast cancer model: evidence for a role of progesterone receptors in breast cancer [PDF]
, 2009 More than 60% of all breast neoplasias are ductal carcinomas expressing estrogen (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR). In contrast, most of the spontaneous, chemically or MMTV induced tumors, as well as tumors arising in genetically modified mice do not ...

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

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

Steroid hormone bioavailability is controlled by the lymphatic system
Scientific Reports, 2021 The steroid hormone progesterone accounts for immune tolerance in pregnancy. Enhanced progesterone metabolism to 6α-OH-pregnanolone occurs in complicated pregnancies such as in preeclampsia with preterm delivery or intrauterine growth restriction, and in
