Sex steroid receptors expression and hormone-induced cell proliferation in human osteosarcoma.
Sex steroid receptors including estrogen receptors (ER), progesterone receptors (PR), and androgen receptors (AR) have been sporadically reported in human osteosarcoma or its cell lines. Therefore, sex steroids have been considered to play some roles in human osteosarcoma, but no systematic and detailed studies regarding the correlation between the status of these receptors in sarcoma cells and...
متن کاملSteroid hormone receptors in human salivary gland tumours.
Major salivary gland tumours were studied for the presence of hormone receptors for oestrogen and progesterone. Of the eight salivary gland tumours exhibiting varied histology, none showed high affinity receptors for oestrogen or progesterone. Salivary tissue from four patients with non-neoplastic salivary gland disease was also studied and found not to contain high affinity receptor sites. The...
متن کاملSteroid hormone receptors: an update.
Steroid hormones (SHs) are lipophilic molecules derived from cholesterol and synthesized in the adrenal cortex (glucocorticoids, mineralocorticoids, and adrenal androgens), the testes (testicular androgens, oestrogen), and the ovary and placenta (oestrogens and progestagens or progestins). SHs reach their target cells via the blood, where they are bound to carrier proteins, and because of their...

متن کاملSex steroid receptors in rheumatoid arthritis.
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a disease characterized primarily by chronic inflammatory synovitis and is well-known to be associated with significant sex differences in its prevalence and clinical features. Sex steroids have been proposed to be involved in the pathogenesis of RA, but details pertaining to the expression of sex steroid receptors in RA synovial tissue have yet to be fully characte...
