Steroid hormone receptor expression and action in bone.
The skeleton is a complex tissue, and hormonal control of bone remodelling is elaborate. The important role that steroid hormones play in bone cell development and in the maintenance of normal bone architecture is well established, but it is only relatively recently that it has become possible to describe their precise mechanism of action. This review focuses not only on the steroid hormones (o...
متن کاملSteroid hormone receptor expression in male breast cancer.
AIMS To investigate expression of the steroid hormone receptors estrogen receptor (ER)-alpha and -beta, progesterone receptor (PR) and androgen receptor (AR) in male breast cancer. METHODS Specimens from 16 male breast cancers were immunostained for ERalpha, ERbeta, PR and AR. FINDINGS Eighty-seven percent of tumours expressed ERalpha, 93% PR, 87% ERbeta and 87% AR. Staining for ERalpha and...
متن کاملSex Steroid Hormone Receptor Expression Affects Ovarian Cancer Survival.
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Although most ovarian cancers express estrogen (ER), progesterone (PR), and androgen (AR) receptors, they are currently not applied in clinical decision making. We explored the prognostic impact of sex steroid hormone receptor protein and mRNA expression on survival in epithelial ovarian cancer. METHODS Immunohistochemical stainings for ERα, ERβ, PR, and AR were assessed i...

متن کاملSteroidal Hormone Receptor Expression in Male Breast Cancer
Introduction: The etiology of male breast cancer is unclear, but hormonal levels may play a role in development of this disease. It seems that the risk of male breast cancer related to increased lifelong exposure to estrogen or reduced androgen. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression of the steroid hormone receptors including estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR...
