Estrogen is involved in suppression of colorectal cancer development and exerts its function
via estrogen receptors α, β and their splicing variants. Whether the recently indentified ER-α …

We have examined the tissue-specific mRNA expression pattern of androgen receptor (AR),
both estrogen receptor (ER) subtypes ERα and ERβ and progestin receptor (PR) in 10 …

Human endometrium expresses estrogen (ER) and progesterone (PR) receptors, which are
related to autocrine and paracrine processes that respond to estrogen and progesterone …

The concept that E2 exerts an effect on the gastrointestinal tract is not new and its actions on
