Research involving estrogen and progesterone receptors (ER and PR) have greatly
contributed to our understanding of cell signaling and transcriptional regulation. In addition …

Abstract Backgrounds and Objectives The male predominance of gastric cancer suggests
that female sex hormones may have a protective effect against gastric cancer. We evaluated …

The discovery of the second estrogen receptor (ER) in 1995 surprised many
endocrinologists and resulted in some scepticism regarding its physiological importance …

Estrogens and their role in cancer are well-studied, and some cancer types are classified in
terms of their response to them. In recent years, a G protein-coupled estrogen receptor …

G protein‐coupled estrogen receptor (GPER) is recently identified as a membrane‐
associated estrogen receptor that mediates non‐genomic effects of estrogen. Our previous …

Eukaryotic gene expression is under the tight control of transcription factors, which includes
the estrogen-related receptor alpha (ERRα). The endogenous ligand (s) acting as ERRα …

Obesity has become a global epidemic in the modern world with the numbers of obese
individuals having risen at alarming rates in the last decades. Obesity represents a serious …

The estrogen signaling pathway via nuclear estrogen receptors (ER) α and β is considered
to be the master regulator of the cellular glucose metabolism in the uterus. While in vivo …

G-protein coupled estrogen receptor 1 (GPER) plays an important role in mediating estrogen
action in many different tissues under both physiological and pathological conditions. G-1 (1 …

A sexual dimorphism in gastric acid secretion has been known for many years, with women
secreting less acid (40%) than men. The mechanisms mediating this sex difference are …
