Role of Estrogen Receptor-Alpha in an Experimental Model of Bronchial Asthma
Background: Use of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) may increase the risk of adult-onset asthma in women. Various in vitro studies have reported that estradiol stimulates human mast cell lines causing release of allergic mediators which was not observed in estrogen receptor-alpha (ER-alpha) knockout mice. Thus, estrogen might be a key element in occurrence of asthma. In the present study, we p...
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 کاملOverexpression of Endometrial Estrogen Receptor-Alpha in The Window of Implantation in Women with Unexplained Infertility
Objective Background: Failure in the endometrial receptivity may account for a significant number of infertility cases including unexplained infertility in women. Reduction in the endometrial estrogen receptor-alpha (ER-α) expression during window of implantation may be a critical event that coincides with expression of specific genes and providing a receptive endometrium. The aim of present st...
متن کاملComparative Study of Simultaneously and Interval Injection Estradiol and Tamoxifen on Estrogen Receptor α Expression in the Ca 1 Region of Hippocampal Pyramidal Neurons in Ovariectomized Rat
Purpose: The aim of our study is the assesment of estrogen receptor a expression in pyramidal neurons in rat CA 1hippocampus that has been ovariectomized. By using the estrogen antagonist, Tamoxifen level of expression of estrogen receptor a in these cells. Materials and Methods: To study the effect of 17- b estradiol and tamoxifen on estrogen receptors a, expression in hippocampus rats of Wist...
متن کاملEstrogen receptor beta mediates rapid estrogen actions on gonadotropin-releasing hormone neurons in vivo.
The gonadal steroid estrogen exerts an important modulatory influence on the activity of multiple neuronal networks. In addition to classical genomic mechanisms of action, estrogen also exerts poorly understood rapid, nongenomic effects on neurons. To examine whether estrogen may exert rapid actions on intracellular signaling within gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neurons in vivo,we exami...
