Estrogen Receptor Beta Expression in Melanomas Versus Dysplastic Nevi
Dear Editor-in-ChiefMalignant melanoma is a tumor arising from melanocyte; this tumor rarely occurs before puberty, with higher mortality rate in males and better survival rate in female patients affected by metastatic melanoma (1, 2). These facts propose that a relationship and association may exist between estrogens and melanoma. The effects of estrogens are mediated by...
متن کاملExpression of Estrogen and Progesterone Receptors in Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma
Background: Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), occurs mostly in women and sex hormones may play a role in the pathogenesis and clinical course. The objective of this study was to determine the status and prevalence of estrogen and progesterone receptors in PTC with regard to age, gender, tumor size and lymph node involvement. Methods: Immunohistochemical stains were performed on 92 tissue bl...
متن کاملComparison of Estrogen Receptor and Progesterone Receptor in Ductal Carcinoma and Lobular Carcinoma With Regard to Age Prevalence
Background: Breast cancer is one of the most common women’s cancers, and the number of cases is increasing worldwide. Objective: The current study compared invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) and invasive ductal carcinoma with regard to the prevalence of estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and age prevalence. Methods: T...
متن کاملEstrogen related receptor α (ERRα) a promising target for the therapy of adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC)
The pathogenesis of the adrenocortical cancer (ACC) involves integration of molecular signals and the interplay of different downstream pathways (i.e. IGFII/IGF1R, β-catenin, Wnt, ESR1). This tumor is characterized by limited therapeutic options and unsuccessful treatments. A useful strategy to develop an effective therapy for ACC is to identify a common downstream target of these multiple path...
متن کاملimmunohistochemical study of estrogen receptor expression in adenoid cystic carcinoma and mucoepidermoid carcinoma of the salivary gland
conclusions regarding the findings of this study, it can be concluded that erα possibly cannot play an important role in the tumorigenesis and prognosis of the investigated malignant salivary gland tumors. results for acc, only one specimen expressed the er, and this was assessed as moderate. no specimens of mec expressed the er. the comparison of er expression between the two groups was not me...
