Expression of nuclear progesterone receptors (nPR), membrane progesterone receptors (mPR) and progesterone receptor membrane components (PGRMC) in the human endometrium after 6 months levonorgestrel low dose intrauterine therapy [PDF]
, 2020 The classical steroid receptors (nuclear receptors), including those for progesterone (nPRs), are thoroughly characterized. The knowledge about so-called non-genomic effects, which are mediated by extra-nuclear initiated signals, has increased immensely ...

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.

A nongenomic mechanism for progesterone-mediated immunosuppression: Inhibition of K+ channels, Ca2+ signaling, and gene expression in T lymphocytes [PDF]
, 1998 The mechanism by which progesterone causes localized suppression of the immune response during pregnancy has remained elusive. Using human T lymphocytes and T cell lines, we show that progesterone, at concentrations found in the placenta, rapidly and ...

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

The role of progesterone in the regulation of ciliary activity in the fallopian tube [PDF]
, 2009 The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate the distribution and regulation of membrane progesterone receptors (mPRs) that may be involved in regulating ciliary activity in the fallopian tube.

Changes in ovaries and uterus after aglepristone administration in the third week of luteal phase of non-pregnant bitches. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 The mechanism of aglepristone action in the placentation time in the bitch remains unclear. The aim of this study was to describe the mechanism by which aglepristone influences ovaries and uterus and to measure the levels of steroid sex hormones in non ...

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
