Specific genes expressed in association with progesterone receptors in meningioma.
An association between hormones and meningioma has been postulated. No data exist that examine gene expression in meningioma by hormone receptor status. The data are surgical specimens from 31 meningioma patients undergoing neurosurgical resection at Brigham and Women's Hospital from March 15, 2004 to May 10, 2005. Progesterone and estrogen hormone receptors (PR and ER, respectively) were measu...
متن کاملIdentification of neuropeptide receptors expressed by melanin-concentrating hormone neurons.
Melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) is a 19-amino-acid cyclic neuropeptide that acts in rodents via the MCH receptor 1 (MCHR1) to regulate a wide variety of physiological functions. MCH is produced by a distinct population of neurons located in the lateral hypothalamus (LH) and zona incerta (ZI), but MCHR1 mRNA is widely expressed throughout the brain. The physiological responses and behaviors ...
متن کاملHormone receptors of the baboon cardiovascular system. Biochemical characterization of aortic and myocardial cytoplasmic progesterone receptors.
We used the synthetic progestin R5020 (17 alpha, 21-dimethyl-19-norpregna-4,9-diene-3,20-dione) to characterize cytoplasmic progesterone receptors in baboon (Papio sp.) aorta and myocardium. The relative ability of selected steroids to inhibit binding of radiolabeled R5020 to aortic cytoplasmic progesterone receptors was radioinert R5020, 1.0; progesterone, 0.31; triamcinolone acetonide, 0.06; ...
متن کاملFunctional characterization of two human olfactory receptors expressed in the baculovirus Sf9 insect cell system.
Olfactory receptors (ORs) are the largest member of the G-protein-coupled receptors which mediate early olfactory perception in discriminating among thousands of odorant molecules. Assigning odorous ligands to ORs is a prerequisite to gaining an understanding of the mechanisms of odorant recognition. The functional expression of ORs represents a critical step in addressing this issue. Due to li...
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...
