highest cause of death from cancer with 430,000 deaths globally per year. Estrogen has …

Gender differences in the incidence and behaviour of colon cancer suggest a hormonal
influence and epidemiological data suggest a protective effect for hormone replacement …

Estrogen receptor β (ER-β) has recently been detected in a human colon cancer cell line.
The aim of this work was to determine whether ER-β is expressed in human colorectal …

BACKGROUND: A pivotal role of oestrogen receptor-beta has been suggested in colon
carcinogenesis in humans. However, few data are available on oestrogen receptor-beta in …

Estrogen receptors have been found in normal and neoplastic gastrointestinal mucosa. The
aim of our study was to verify whether the content of cytosolic estrogen receptor in normal …

Purpose The study was designed to investigate the clinicopathological correlations,
relationship to apoptotic index, and prognostic significance of estrogen receptor beta …

Epidemiological data suggest a protective effect for estrogen replacement therapy on colon
cancer. The estrogen receptor (ER) is required for the action of estrogen. The ER-β isoform …

We examined the expression of estrogen receptor (ER) messenger RNAs (ER-α, ER-β, and
ER-β isoforms) in colorectal tumor samples and corresponding normal mucosa, paying …

Oestrogen Receptor β (ERβ) may protect against prostate and mammary cell proliferation
and malignant transformation. Epidemiological studies indicate that oestrogens may reduce …

AIM: To determine the expression of estrogen receptor (ER) β in Chinese colorectal
carcinoma (CRC) patients. METHODS: ERβ expression in CRC was investigated by …
