The role of tumor estrogen receptors (ERs) and serum estrogen in lung cancer is inconclusive. We investigated the hypothesis that ERs and functional single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the estrogen biosynthesis pathway are associated with poorer lung cancer survival. Lung cancer patients (n = 305) from a National Cancer Institute-Maryland (NCI-MD) case-case cohort in the Baltimore metropolitan a...

Objective(s): The present study aims at examining the motor coordination performance, serum and cerebellar estrogen, as well as ERβ levels, of ovariectomized rats (as menopausal model) following regular exercise. Materials and Methods:Ten female Sprague Dawley ratsaged 12 weeks old were randomly divided into two groups; all of which underwent ovariectomy. The first group was treated with regula...

background: there are evidences regarding the prevalence of dysfunction in sexual function and behavior in diabetic people. experimental studies revealed a positive effect of withania somnifera on sexual function and behaviors. objective: in this research the effect of withania somnifera on sexual function in diabetic male wistar rats was assessed by measuring the serum levels of testosterone p...

Radioimmunoassay of serum estrogen (sum of estrone and estradiol-17f3) in 0.5 ml of human serum is described. After dilution of the serum, the estrogens are adsorbed on a Sephadex G-15 column in the presence of dilute HC1 and then eluted with benzene. After evaporation of the benzene eluate, the estrogens are dissolved in bovine serum albumin (5 g/. liter solution, at pH 8.0). An aliquot of thi...

Methods: 24 adult healthy, Two sets pregnant were created (12 each group) treated as follows for ten days postnatal. G 1 intubated orally distal water serving control while, 2 (200 mg\kg\day). Results: The...

Background and Objectives: Through out the history, medicinal plants have had great importance. Date palm is a species of phoenix Dactylifera and a genus of palamse. The pollen of date palm contains five chemical compounds. Quercetin, Rutin, Beta-Amyrin,Beta-Sitosterol and Uronic –Acid. Four of these compounds have biological activities. The present study aim was to determin of the effects of d...
