Estrogen receptor (ER) in breast tumors of patients who were operated at Keio University
Hospital was examined routinely. During 10 months from May 1976 till March 1977, 65 …

We performed a retrospective analysis for the presence of estrogen receptors (ERs) in
known cases of adenocarcinoma of the colon, pancreas, and lung. Estrogen receptor status …

Using Avidn-biotin-peroxidase complex (ABC) immunohistochemical method, 68 gastric
cancer specimens and 20 non-cancerous stomach specimens were examined for ER. In 38 …

Estrogen receptor mRNA was detected by a non‐radioactive in situ hybridization assay in
tumor and non‐neoplastic liver tissues. A synthetic oligo‐nucleotide complementary to the …

The concept that E2 exerts an effect on the gastrointestinal tract is not new and its actions on
intestinal mucosa have been investigated for at least three decades. An attempt to …

The estrogen receptor (ER) is a unique protein present within the cell cytosol of estrogen
sensitive tissues which exhibits high affinity binding for estrogenic steroids. The presence of …

We have assayed both estrogen and androgen receptors in hepatocellular carcinomas, in
the surrounding noncancerous liver tissue, and in normal liver tissue. Estrogen receptors …

The variability of estimates of K d and binding capacity (fmol oestrogen bound/mg cytosol
protein) of oestrogen receptors (RC) which may arise from different cytosol protein …

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 …

This is the first report on estrogen-dependent growth of human-derived colon carcinoma
cells. Under selected conditions, growth of subconfluent Caco-2 cells is triggered by …
