Context—A new class of estrogen receptors was discovered in 1996 and named estrogen
receptor β (ER-B); the traditional estrogen receptor, which until a little more than 10 years …

The estrogen receptor (ER)-β isoform has been recently identified to be distinct from ERα
isoform and regulates separate sets of genes, and can exert opposite signaling functions …

The role of estrogen (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) in breast cancer is well
established. Identification of the second human estrogen receptor, the estrogen receptor β …

Clinical management of breast cancer is increasingly guided by assessment of tumor
phenotypic parameters. One of these is estrogen receptor (ER) status, currently defined by …

Two oestrogen receptors (ERs), ERα and ERβ, have been identified. ERα is by far the better
characterized and is an established predictive marker in breast cancer which influences …

More than 10 years have passed since the discovery of the second estrogen receptor,
estrogen receptor β (ERβ). It is now evident that ERα is not the only ER in breast cancer …

The aim of this work was to determine the extent of estrogen receptor beta (ER-β)
expression in invasive breast cancer (BrCA) and whether ER-β expression is correlated with …

The estrogen receptor (ER) exists in two forms known as ERα and ERβ. Currently, a clinical
role has only been established for ERα. The primary use of ERα in breast cancer is for …

Ever since the estrogen receptor (ER) β was discovered in 1996, we have been trying to
determine its value as a prognostic and/or predictive factor in breast cancer and its potential …

To estimate the clinical value of estrogen receptor (ER) β expression in breast cancer we
used an immunohistochemical method to detect the wild-type ERβ in 88 primary breast …
