Changes in Uterine Estrogen Receptor and Morphology in Aging Female Rats1

Changes in Uterine Estrogen and Progesterone Receptor Isoforrns in Ovariectomized Hormonally Treated Rats

Changes in uterine receptor mRNAs for oxytocin and estrogen in the pseudopregnant rat.

This study examined the uterine oxytocin- (OTR) and estrogen- (ER) receptor mRNA levels during and after pseudopregnancy (PSP) in rats. An increased OTR mRNA level was observed from day 14 of PSP, and the maximal level was attained during the following proestrus. The levels of ERalpha mRNA were low during PSP and significantly increased during the following estrus. The level of ERbeta mRNA was ...

ویژگی های زمین شیمیایی، کانی شناسی، و میکرومورفولوژیکی خاک ها و سنگ مادر مربوطه در منطقه بین بخش های جنوبی زاگرس و خلیج فارس تا دریای عمان(استان هرمزگان، ایران) مورد بررسی قرار گرفت. هدف های این مطالعه شناسایی تغییرات در خصوصیات فیزیکی، شیمیایی، و ترکیب کانی شناسی خاک، مطالعه میکرومورفولوژی و تکامل خاک، و بررسی توزیع عنصر خاک بر اساس هوازدگی، پروسه های خاک و زمین شناسی جهت توصیف اثرات مواد مادر...

Role of estrogen receptor in uterine stroma and epithelium: Insights from estrogen receptor / mice

In this study, we compared the uterine tissue of estrogen receptor (ER) / mice and their WT littermates for differences in morphology, proliferation [the percentage of labeled cells 2 h after BrdUrd injection and EGF receptor (EGFR) expression], and differentiation (expression of progesterone receptor, E-cadherin, and cytokeratins). In ovariectomized mice, progesterone receptor expression in th...

Microvascular changes in estrogen-α sensitive brainstem structures of aging female hamsters.

Structural neuronal plasticity is present in the nucleus para-retroambiguus (NPRA) and the commissural nucleus of the solitary tract/A2 group (NTScom/A2) in female hamsters. Both brainstem nuclei play a role in estrous cycle related autonomic adaptations. We investigated how aging affects the capillary condition in these adaptive brainstem regions. Senescent female hamsters (+/-95 weeks) were t...
