Sex Steroid Receptors in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Endometriosis: Insights from Laboratory Studies to Clinical Trials

Biomedicines, 2022
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and endometriosis are reproductive disorders that may cause infertility. The pathology of both diseases has been suggested to be associated with sex steroid hormone receptors, including oestrogen receptors (ER ...

3D model of amphioxus steroid receptor complexed with estradiol [PDF]

, 2009
The origins of signaling by vertebrate steroids are not fully understood. An important advance was the report that an estrogen-binding steroid receptor [SR] is present in amphioxus, a basal chordate with a similar body plan as vertebrates.

Realising the therapeutic potential of neuroactive steroid modulators of the GABA_A receptor [PDF]

, 2020
In the 1980s particular endogenous metabolites of progesterone and of deoxycorticosterone were revealed to be potent, efficacious, positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) of the GABAA receptor (GABAAR).

Mutual Shaping of Circadian Body-Wide Synchronization by the Suprachiasmatic Nucleus and Circulating Steroids

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2022
BackgroundSteroids are lipid hormones that reach bodily tissues through the systemic circulation, and play a major role in reproduction, metabolism, and homeostasis. All of these functions and steroids themselves are under the regulation of the circadian

Steroid receptor expression in the fish inner earvaries with sex, social status, and reproductive state

BMC Neuroscience, 2010
Background Gonadal and stress-related steroid hormones are known to influence auditory function across vertebrates but the cellular and molecular mechanisms responsible for steroid-mediated auditory plasticity at the level of the inner ear remain unknown.

Independent elaboration of steroid hormone signaling pathways in Metazoans [PDF]

, 2009
Steroid hormones regulate many physiological processes in vertebrates, nematodes and arthropods through binding to nuclear receptors (NR), a metazoan-specific family of ligand-activated transcription factors.

Special aspects of steroid hormone receptors’ expression in cases of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia depending on the papillomavirus infection progression in women with infertility

Regulatory Mechanisms in Biosystems, 2020
The relevance of the study is contingent on insufficient study of the correlation between the reception of uterine cervix steroid hormones in cases of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and the level of human papilloma virus load in women with ...

Effect of spironolactone and potassium canrenoate on cytosolic and nuclear androgen and estrogen receptors of rat liver [PDF]

, 1987
Spironolactone and potassium canrenoate are diuretics that are used widely for management of cirrhotic ascites. The administration of spironolactone frequently leads to feminization, which has been noted less frequently with the use of potassium ...

Neuroactive steroids in depression and anxiety disorders: Clinical studies [PDF]

, 2006
Certain neuroactive steroids modulate ligand-gated ion channels via non-genomic mechanisms. Especially 3 alpha-reduced pregnane steroids are potent positive allosteric modulators of the gamma-aminobutyric acid type A (GABA(A)) receptor.
