Phosphorylation of immunopurified chicken oviduct progesterone receptor (PR) was studied
in intact cells and under cell-free conditions. Cytosol PR was isolated by incubation with anti …

Double labelling and Western blot techniques were used to demonstrate phosphorylation of
estradiol receptor. Cells in monolayer culture were incubated with [32 P] orthophosphate for …

At present, not much is known about progesterone receptor (PR) expression and localization
in postmenopausal women ovaries. In the ovaries of reproductive age women, PR is …

Using high resolution isoelectric focusing we have been able to identify a low affinity/high
capacity oestrogen binding protein, which exhibits an apparent pI of 7.0. Using this system it …

The development of the female reproductive system involves a balance between the actions
of the principal ovarian steroid hormones estrogen and progesterone. While estrogen has a …

Previous studies from between enzyme-linked immunoassay (EIA) and steroid binding
assay (SBA) in the analysis of oestrogen receptors (ER) in breast tumours. In particular, EIA …

The elucidation of the molecular mechanisms responsible for the hormonal control of cell
proliferation in breast cancer has been the object of intense research. Because most breast …

This multiauthor book deals with the roles of specific genes in reproductive processes in
mammals. Its eleven chapters have the following headings:(1) Molecular genetics of …

Background: Positron emission tomography using [methyl-11C]-choline is effective in
imaging many types of cancer, especially prostate cancer (PC). The antiandrogen flutamide …

Steroid hormone receptors are members of a gene family of liganddependent transcriptional
activators that also includes receptors for vitamin D, thyroid hormone, retinoic acid, and a …
