Expression of estrogen receptor alpha and beta during mouse embryogenesis
In adult mammals numerous target tissues and organs for estrogens exist. Little is known about possible target organs during embryogenesis other than the reproductive tract and the gonads. This is the first report on the expression of estrogen receptor beta (ERbeta) in comparison with ERalpha mRNA during mouse embryogenesis. We found expression of estrogen receptor mRNA in the reproductive trac...
متن کاملDevelopmental expression of the estrogen receptor-related receptor γ in the nervous system during mouse embryogenesis
The ERR's (estrogen receptor-related receptors) are constitutive activators of the classical estrogen response element. In this report, we demonstrate that ERRgamma is highly expressed in the nervous system of the developing mouse embryo and that the adult pattern of expression of ERRgamma is, with few exceptions, established during embryogenesis. Transcripts are preferentially detected in alre...
متن کاملEstrogen 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 کاملA comparative study of estrogen receptor beta expression in melanoma and benign melanocytic lesions
Background: Malignant melanoma is the most aggressive form of skin cancer. In contrast to other tumors, the role of estrogen in the initiation and progression of melanoma remains unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate estrogen receptor beta protein expression in human melanoma tissues and in the benign melanocytic lesions. Method: Twenty-one patients, 11 with cutaneous melanoma and 10 w...
متن کاملExpression of androgen receptor mRNA during mouse embryogenesis
Androgen receptor (AR) is a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily which acts as a ligand-dependent transcription factor (Beato, M., Herrlich, P., Schütz, 1989. Steroid hormone receptors: many actors in search of a plot. Cell 83, 851-857). It plays a pivotal role in sexual development and reproduction (Wilson, J.D., Griffin, J.E., George, F.W., Leshin, M., 1981. The role of gonadal steroids...
