Expression of estrogen receptor beta (ER-beta) and its regulation by estradiol and anti-
estrogens was analyzed in breast cancer cells. We determined that ER-beta is expressed in …

Oestrogen receptor (ER) is used routinely to predict endocrine responsiveness in patients
with breast cancer. A second ER, ERβ has been described but its significance remains …

The recent cloning of a second estrogen receptor (ER), designated ERβ, has prompted a
reevaluation of the role of ERs in breast cancer. We have developed and validated a real …

To understand the significance of estrogen receptor β (ERβ) in mammary carcinogenesis,
we evaluated the expression of ERβ in preinvasive mammary tumors. The percentage of …

Estrogen receptor β is expressed in normal and neoplastic ovarian and endometrial tissues.
Recent studies indicate that levels of this receptor decline in ovarian tumorigenesis, like in …

The expression of a recently described novel estrogen receptor, ER-β, was detected in
several human breast tumor biopsy samples and several human breast epithelial cell lines …

Breast cancer, a malignant tumor originating from mammary epithelial tissue, is the most
common cancer among women worldwide. Challenges facing the diagnosis and treatment …

Excessive exposure to estrogen has long been associated with an increased risk for
developing breast cancer and anti-estrogen therapy is the gold standard of care in the …

Background: The expression of oestrogen receptor (ER) α characterises a subset of breast
cancers associated with good response to endocrine therapy. However, the clinical …

Aim: Two oestrogen receptors (ERs) have been identified to date—the “classic” ERα and the
more recently described ERβ. Although much is known about ERα at the mRNA and protein …
