Human liver contains estrogen receptors which render it sensitive to estrogen. Specific
hormone binding to cytosol and nuclei from normal liver containing such receptors is of high …

Because the liver is an estrogen-sensitive organ and such sensitivity necessitates the
presence of an hepatic estrogen receptor, we assayed whole human liver cytosol for the …

Estrogen receptors (ER) were assayed on hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and surrounding
liver tissue in 30 adult patients. All specimens were obtained at the time of surgery. Cirrhosis …

A patient with a benign hepatic neoplasm developing after treatment with estrogenic
hormones is described. After excision, the neoplastic tissue was analyzed for the presence …

Abstract Characterization of the estrogen receptor in cytosol from human male liver was
undertaken to further understanding of the molecular basis of estrogen action in this tissue …

An estrogen receptor and an androgen receptor are present in the mammalian liver. In the
liver of the rat, the estrogen receptor concentration increases markedly at puberty and this …

Many hepatic adenomas have been demonstrated to have a clear relationship with oral
contraceptive use, and it is presumed that there may be hormone receptors within the …

Experimental and clinical evidence indicates that estrogens have a relevant role in the
pathogenesis of cancer of hormone‐sensitive organs. Estrogen receptors (ERs) are present …

The effects of steroid hormones in a variety of tissues have been known for many years, but
the receptors for these hormones were first characterized only about 20 years ago when …

The liver supernatant of adult female rats contains proteins with a high specificity for binding
radioactive estradiol and other potent estrogens. Several properties of the liver …
