Steroid receptors in meningiomas [PDF]

open access: yesArquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 1985
Cytosolic estrogen (ER), progesterone (PR), androgen (AR) and glucocorticoid receptors (GR) were evaluated in 10 meningiomas using a dextran charcoal coated method. We consider as positive specific receptor values >10fMol/mg protein. In this study 20% of

Steroid Receptors and Vertebrate Evolution [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular and Cellular Endocrinology, 2019
Considering that life on earth evolved about 3.7 billion years ago, vertebrates are young, appearing in the fossil record during the Cambrian explosion about 542 to 515 million years ago.

Differential impact of tetratricopeptide repeat proteins on the steroid hormone receptors. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
BackgroundTetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) motif containing co-chaperones of the chaperone Hsp90 are considered control modules that govern activity and specificity of this central folding platform. Steroid receptors are paradigm clients of Hsp90.

Importins involved in the nuclear transportation of steroid hormone receptors: In silico and in vitro data

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
The nuclear receptor superfamily (NRS) consists of 48 receptors for lipophilic substances and is divided into 7 different subfamilies, with subfamily 3 comprising steroid hormone receptors.

G protein-coupled receptors function as cell membrane receptors for the steroid hormone 20-hydroxyecdysone

open access: yesCell Communication and Signaling, 2020
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are cell membrane receptors for various ligands. Recent studies have suggested that GPCRs transmit animal steroid hormone signals.

Modulatory Effects of Sex Steroids Progesterone and Estradiol on Odorant Evoked Responses in Olfactory Receptor Neurons. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
The influence of the sex steroid hormones progesterone and estradiol on physiology and behavior during menstrual cycles and pregnancy is well known. Several studies indicate that olfactory performance changes with cyclically fluctuating steroid hormone ...

Modulation of Xenobiotic Receptors by Steroids

open access: yesMolecules, 2013
Nuclear receptors (NRs) are ligand-activated transcription factors that regulate the expression of their target genes. NRs play important roles in many human diseases, including metabolic diseases and cancer, and are therefore a key class of therapeutic ...

Coumarins as Tool Compounds to Aid the Discovery of Selective Function Modulators of Steroid Hormone Binding Proteins

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
Steroid hormones play an essential role in a wide variety of actions in the body, such as in metabolism, inflammation, initiating and maintaining sexual differentiation and reproduction, immune functions, and stress response.
