Maternal serum progesterone levels and placental expression of progesterone receptors in insulin-resistant pregnant rats

, 2020
Background: Maternal diabetes is known to impair placental function; however, its effect on placental expression of progesterone/oestrogen receptors and role of the placenta in foetal programming has not been well documented.

Insights from the Structure of Estrogen Receptor into the Evolution of Estrogens: Implications for Endocrine Disruption

, 2011
In the last decade, there has been important progress in understanding the origins and evolution of receptors for adrenal steroids (aldosterone, cortisol) and sex steroids (estradiol, progesterone, testosterone) due to the sequencing of genomes from ...

LOCALIZATION AND CHANGES OF NUCLEAR PROGESTERONE RECEPTORS IN ZEBRAFISH OOCYTES AND ADJACENT FOLLICULAR CELLS

, 2011
The nuclear progesterone receptor (Pgr) is one of the major mediators for progestin signaling during oocyte ovulation in vertebrates. However any roles Pgr may play in oocyte growth and especially in the final oocyte maturation are controversial.

Opioid mediated activity and expression of mu and delta opioid receptors in isolated human term non-laboring myometrium

, 2013
The existence of opioid receptors in mammalian myometrial tissue is now widely accepted. Previously enkephalin degrading enzymes have been shown to be elevated in pregnant rat uterus and a met-enkephalin analogue has been shown to alter spontaneous ...

Sexual Dimorphism in the Regulation of Estrogen, Progesterone, and Androgen Receptors by Sex Steroids in the Rat Airway Smooth Muscle Cells

International Journal of Endocrinology, 2016
The role of sex hormones in lung is known. The three main sex steroid receptors, estrogen, progesterone, and androgen, have not been sufficiently studied in airway smooth muscle cells (ASMC), and the sex hormone regulation on these receptors is unknown ...

Progesterone receptors: Form and function in brain

, 2008
Emerging data indicate that progesterone has multiple non-reproductive functions in the central nervous system to regulate cognition, mood, inflammation, mitochondrial function, neurogenesis and regeneration, myelination and recovery from traumatic brain

Characterization of signalling cross-talk between the EP2 and FP receptors in endometrial epithelial cells

, 2009
Uterine fibroids are benign tumors that arise from the smooth-muscle uterine cells (myometrium) and are the most common uterine disorder occurring in as many as 30% of women over 35 years of age. Despite their frequent occurrence, the etiology of uterine

Expression of progesterone receptors in bovine corpus luteum during pregnancy [PDF]

, 2004
The expression of progesterone receptors and matrix ribonucleic acid in 37 corpora lutea in 1-7 month's pregnant cows was investigated. Corpora lutea were obtained from slaughtered animals.
