Changes in ovaries and uterus after aglepristone administration in the third week of luteal phase of non-pregnant bitches. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS 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

open access: yesScientific 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

Steroids, Pregnancy and Fetal Development

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Maternal glucocorticoids critically rise during pregnancy reaching up to a 20-fold increase of mid-pregnancy concentrations. Concurrently, another steroid hormone, progesterone, increases.

Membrane Progesterone Receptors (mPRs/PAQRs) Are Going beyond Its Initial Definitions

open access: yesMembranes, 2023
Progesterone (PRG) is a key cyclical reproductive hormone that has a significant impact on female organs in vertebrates. It is mainly produced by the corpus luteum of the ovaries, but can also be generated from other sources such as the adrenal cortex ...

Estrogen and Progesterone Receptors in the Endometrium

open access: yesAnnals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1997
The endometrium, as a target of estrogens and progestins, possesses the respective receptor proteins. These receptors belong to the superfamily of nuclear receptors, having important functional domains required for steroid ligand binding, for dimer formation, for interaction with HREs of DNA, for transcription modulation, for association with other ...

Involvement of the Estrogen and Progesterone Axis in Cancer Stemness: Elucidating Molecular Mechanisms and Clinical Significance

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2020
Estrogen and progesterone regulate the growth and development of human tissues, including the reproductive system and breasts, through estrogen and progesterone receptors, respectively.

Characterization and ligand identification of a membrane progesterone receptor in fungi: existence of a novel PAQR in Sporothrix schenckii

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2012
Background Adaptive responses in fungi result from the interaction of membrane receptors and extracellular ligands. Many different classes of receptors have been described in eukaryotic cells. Recently a new family of receptors classified as belonging to

Limbic progesterone receptors regulate spatial memory

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Progesterone and its receptors (PRs) participate in mating and reproduction, but their role in spatial declarative memory is not understood. Male mice expressed PRs, predominately in excitatory neurons, in brain regions that support spatial memory, such ...

Characteristics of endometrial receptivity in women with different endometrial thickness

open access: yesАкушерство, гинекология и репродукция, 2022
Aim: to evaluate the expression of estrogen (ER) and progesterone (PR) receptors in the endometrium during the "implantation window" in women with a history of reproductive dysfunction with different endometrial thickness.Materials and Methods.
