GPER Signaling in Spermatogenesis and Testicular Tumors.

Frontiers in endocrinology

Chimento A, Sirianni R, Casaburi I, Pezzi V.
PMID: 24639669
Front Endocrinol (Lausanne). 2014 Mar 06;5:30. doi: 10.3389/fendo.2014.00030. eCollection 2014.

Estrogens play important roles in the regulation of testis development and spermatogenesis. Moreover, several evidences suggest that estrogen signaling can be involved in testicular tumorigenesis. The physiological effects of estrogen are mediated by the classical nuclear estrogen receptors ESR1...

Affinity of estrogens for human progesterone receptor A and B monomers and risk of breast cancer: a comparative molecular modeling study.

Advances and applications in bioinformatics and chemistry : AABC

Hasan TN, B LG, Masoodi TA, Shafi G, Alshatwi AA, Sivashanmugham P.
PMID: 21918635
Adv Appl Bioinform Chem. 2011;4:29-36. doi: 10.2147/AABC.S17371. Epub 2011 Mar 08.

BACKGROUND: The human progesterone receptor (hPR) belongs to the steroid receptor family. It may be found as monomers (A and B) and or as a dimer (AB). hPR is regarded as the prognostic biomarker for breast cancer. In a...

Comparison of Vaginal versus Oral Estradiol Administration in Improving the Visualization of Transformation Zone (TZ) during Colposcopy.

Journal of clinical and diagnostic research : JCDR

Beniwal S, Makkar B, Batra S, Gandhi G, Goswami D, Zutshi V.
PMID: 27630912

INTRODUCTION: Colposcopy is an important diagnostic tool in the evaluation of patients with abnormal pap smears. However, in 10-20% transformation zone (TZ)/squamo-columnar junction is not completely visualized and these patients are deemed to have an incomplete colposcopy examination. Such...

Effects of Androgen and Estrogen Receptor Signaling Pathways on Bladder Cancer Initiation and Progression.

Bladder cancer (Amsterdam, Netherlands)

Godoy G, Gakis G, Smith CL, Fahmy O.
PMID: 27376135
Bladder Cancer. 2016 Apr 27;2(2):127-137. doi: 10.3233/BLC-160052.

Epidemiologic studies have long demonstrated clear differences in incidence and progression of bladder cancer between genders suggesting that the mechanisms of development and progression in these tumors have a strong association with steroid hormonal pathways. Such observations led to...

Estradiol: micrograms or milligrams.

Endocrinology, diabetes & metabolism case reports

Kirk JM, Wickramasuriya N, Shaw NJ.
PMID: 26843960
Endocrinol Diabetes Metab Case Rep. 2016;2016:150096. doi: 10.1530/EDM-15-0096. Epub 2016 Jan 06.

UNLABELLED: Estrogen is used to induce puberty in peripubertal girls with hypogonadism. Although both synthetic and natural forms are available, along with different routes of administration, in the UK oral ethinyl estradiol and the low-dose oral contraceptive pill are...

A Reappraisal of Women's Health Initiative Estrogen-Alone Trial: Long-Term Outcomes in Women 50-59 Years of Age.

Obstetrics and gynecology international

Roehm E.

Obstet Gynecol Int. 2015;2015:713295. doi: 10.1155/2015/713295. Epub 2015 Jan 01.

The Women's Health Initiative (WHI) Estrogen-Alone Trial randomized postmenopausal women, 50 to 79 years of age, with prior hysterectomy, to conjugated equine estrogens (CEE) or placebo with a 5.9-year median duration of CEE use. In 2013, the WHI published...

The Immune System Is a Natural Target for Estrogen Action: Opposing Effects of Estrogen in Two Prototypical Autoimmune Diseases.

Frontiers in immunology

Khan D, Ansar Ahmed S.
PMID: 26779182
Front Immunol. 2016 Jan 06;6:635. doi: 10.3389/fimmu.2015.00635. eCollection 2015.

Analogous to other physiological systems, the immune system also demonstrates remarkable sex differences. Although the reasons for sex differences in immune responses are not precisely understood, it potentially involves differences in sex hormones (estrogens, androgens, and differential sex hormone...

Estrogen Receptor β in Melanoma: From Molecular Insights to Potential Clinical Utility.

Frontiers in endocrinology

Marzagalli M, Montagnani Marelli M, Casati L, Fontana F, Moretti RM, Limonta P.
