Molecular mechanism of estrogen–estrogen receptor signaling
17β-Estradiol (E2), as the main circulating estrogen hormone, regulates many tissue and organ functions in physiology. The effects of E2 on cells are mediated by the transcription factors and estrogen receptor (ER)α and ERβ that are encoded by distinct genes. Localized at the peri-membrane, mitochondria, and the nucleus of cells that are dependent on estrogen target tissues, the ERs share simil...
متن کاملEstrogen signaling in the proliferative endometrium: implications in endometriosis.
Even though the physiological role of estrogen in the female reproductive cycle and endometrial proliferative phase is well established, the signaling pathways by which estrogen exerts its action in the endometrial tissue are still little known. In this regard, advancements in cell culture techniques and maintenance of endometrial cells in cultures enabled the discovery of new signaling mechani...
متن کاملEstrogen signaling and cardiovascular disease.
Estrogen has pleiotropic effects on the cardiovascular system. The mechanisms by which estrogen confers these pleiotropic effects are undergoing active investigation. Until a decade ago, all estrogen signaling was thought to occur by estrogen binding to nuclear estrogen receptors (estrogen receptor-α and estrogen receptor-β), which bind to DNA and function as ligand-activated transcription fact...
متن کاملProtein arginine methylation in estrogen signaling and estrogen-related cancers.
Estrogen signaling pathways regulate multiple cellular processes including proliferation and differentiation, and dysregulation of these pathways underlies several human pathologies. Post-translational modifications (PTMs) play an important role in estrogen signaling. This review focuses on recent findings pertinent to arginine methylation of non-histone proteins and their implications in estro...
متن کاملEstrogen Signaling in Metabolic Inflammation
There is extensive evidence supporting the interference of inflammatory activation with metabolism. Obesity, mainly visceral obesity, is associated with a low-grade inflammatory state, triggered by metabolic surplus where specialized metabolic cells such as adipocytes activate cellular stress initiating and sustaining the inflammatory program. The increasing prevalence of obesity, resulting in ...
