Estrogen receptor alpha (ER-α) is an important regulator of growth and differentiation in the
mammary gland and the female reproductive tract. It is also involved in the development of …

Breast and prostate cancers are among the most common of all cancers. They are referred
to as hormone‐dependent cancers, because estrogen and androgen are involved in their …

Two oestrogen receptors, ERα and ERβ, exist. While much is known about ERα, the role of
ERβ is still undefined, especially at the protein level. The aim of this study was to determine …

Purpose. In stomach adenocarcinoma, the role of the hormonal receptor, estrogen receptor
(ER), has been controversial. Recently, a new estrogen receptor, called estrogen receptor β …

The role of oestrogen receptor (ER) β in human breast cancer remains unclear. However, it
is now apparent that when considering ER β in human breast cancer it is important to …

Purpose: In addition to genomic signaling, it is accepted that estrogen receptor-α (ERα) has
nonnuclear signaling functions, which correlate with tamoxifen resistance in preclinical …

Dysregulation of total estrogen receptor β (ERβ) expression has been implicated in breast
tumorigenesis. The ERβ gene yields five exon 8 alternatively spliced transcripts (ERβ1–5) …

Introduction Estrogen receptor-alpha (ER-α) and progesterone receptor (PgR) are
consolidated predictors of response to hormonal therapy (HT). In contrast, little information …

The measurement of estrogen receptor (ER) α in breast cancer tissues is important to
discriminate between the hormone dependent and independent tumors. Recently, a second …

Estrogen Receptor-β (ERβ) has been implicated in many cancers. In prostate and breast
cancer its function is controversial, but genetic studies implicate a role in cancer …
