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 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 کاملEstrogen receptor in normal and neoplastic mouse mammary tissues.
apparent correlation between the susceptibility of a strain to mammary tumor development and the ability of its normal mammary gland receptors to bind estradici. The receptor appears to be in the parenchyma! elements of the gland. The spontaneous mammary tumor showed binding capacities significantly lower than the normal gland, based on wet weight tissue and DNA content. There is no correlation...
متن کاملEstrogen receptor beta expression in prostate adenocarcinoma
BACKGROUND Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in men and the second leading cause of cancer death in men. Estrogen induction of cell proliferation is a crucial step in carcinogenesis of gynecologic target tissues, and there are many studies recently done, showing that prostate cancer growth is also influenced by estrogen. The characterization of estrogen receptor beta (ER-b) ...
متن کاملDownregulation of estrogen receptor alpha and beta expression in carcinogen-induced mammary gland tumors of rats.
AIM AND METHODS The recent discovery of a new isoform of estrogen receptor (ER), ER beta, has promoted the investigation of its expression on mammary gland. This study was carried out to examine the expression of ER alpha, ER beta and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in the carcinogen-induced mammary tumors induced by N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU) or 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA...
