Wnt signaling in estrogen-induced lactotroph proliferation.
Prolactinomas are the most common type of functioning pituitary adenoma in humans, but the control of lactotroph proliferation remains unclear. Here, using microarray analysis, we show that estrogen treatment increased expression of Wnt4 mRNA in adult Fischer rat pituitary tissue. Dual immunofluorescence analysis revealed that Wnt4 expression was not confined to lactotrophs, but that it was exp...
متن کاملEstrogen metabolizing enzymes in endometrium and endometriosis.
BACKGROUND Estradiol (E(2)) is an important promoter of the growth of both eutopic and ectopic endometrium. The findings with regard to the expression and activity of steroidogenic enzymes in endometrium of controls, in endometrium of endometriosis patients and in endometriotic lesions are not consistent. METHODS In this study, we have looked at the mRNA expression and protein levels of a ran...
متن کاملEstrogen-dependent up-regulation of TRPA1 and TRPV1 receptor proteins in the rat endometrium.
Transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) and vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) receptors expressed predominantly in sensory nerves are activated by inflammatory stimuli and mediate inflammation and pain. Although they have been shown in the human endometrium, their regulation and function are unknown. Therefore, we investigated their estrogen- and progesterone-dependent alterations in the rat endometri...
متن کاملProtective effects of vitamin C and vitamin E against hysterosalpingography-induced epithelial degeneration and proliferation in rat endometrium
AIM The aim of this study was to examine the protective effects of vitamin C (VC) and vitamin E (VE) against hysterosalpingography (HSG)-induced epithelial degeneration and proliferation in rat endometrium. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 28 female Wistar albino rats were randomized into four groups: G1 (n=7; abdomen was opened and closed), G2 (n=7; 0.1 mL Lipiodol [ethiodized oil] was admin...
متن کاملEnhanced Cell Proliferation Induced by Nitric Oxide
Nitric oxide (NO·) regulates multiple physiological functions including cell proliferation. The regulatory action of NO· on cell proliferation is exerted in a bimodal mode, enhancing and inhibiting the progression of the proliferative process depending on the actual concentration of NO· encountered by the cell. Although not all details are understood, the cytostatic action of NO·, when attained...
