A Review on Sex Steroid Hormone Estrogen Receptors in Mammals and Fish

International Journal of Endocrinology, 2020
Steroid hormones play essential roles in the reproductive biology of vertebrates. Estrogen exercises its effect through estrogen receptors and is not only a female reproductive hormone but acts virtually in all vertebrates, including fish, and is ...

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.

Membrane Androgen Receptors Unrelated to Nuclear Steroid Receptors.

Endocrinology, 2019
Rapid (nongenomic) membrane-initiated androgen actions have been described in nuclear androgen receptor-null cells. Four distinct proteins have been proposed as membrane androgen receptors (mARs) or sensors.

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.

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 ...
